around your shed. We recommend that you slope the 50mm edges downward by 10 mm so that
rain water can be drained away from your shed.

Shed Overview

Step 2: Assemble rear wall panels.
You will nd it easier to assemble your shed using sawhorses with timber studs attached ( timber
needs to be the same length as the shed (1.5M) or alternatively, a trestle table.
Place 1R and 1L on the sheeting your work table and join together with the self tapping screws
per the diagram.

Now t 20B top channel and 20C bottom channel to the sheeting by tapping it in (diagram A) or
sliding it in. (diagram B) Be noted that the small lip of the channel is always facing out. This is to
ensure that rain water can not build up inside your shed.

Now t 31 mid wall channel to the sheeting and position it by the self tapping screws. Please
note that the groove should face downwards. Fix the top and bottom channels using the self
tapping screws.

Step 3: Assemble side wall panels
Place 2L the sheeting on your work table and tap or slide in 21A top channel and 21B bottom
channel. Fix and position the 32 mid wall channel by the self tapping screws. Fix 21B the bottom
channel by the self tapping screws but not 21A the top channel in this stage. Note that the small
lip of the channel is always facing out. This is to ensure that rain water can not build up inside
your shed. Repeat the same steps for 2L the other side wall.

Step 4: Assemble the roof panels.
Place 3 and 3 sheeting on your work table and join together with the self tapping screws per the
diagram.
Now tap or slide in 20A and 20A the channels to the sheeting and x them using the self tapping
screws.
Now t 50 and 50 side lips to the sheeting and x them using the self tapping screws.

Step 5: Assemble the front wall panels.
Place 4 the sheeting on the work table. Fit 20D the top channel, 20E the bottom channel, 41B the
jamb (There are pre-drilled holes for next step on both 4 and 41B and must be aligned.) and 33R
the mid wall channel to the sheeting and x them using the self tapping screws. (NOT those with
cross mark in this stage)
Fit the 41A the jamb, 42 the jamb and 23 the bottom channel in following and x them using the
self tapping screws (NOT those with cross mark in this stage). Be aware of the joint details per
the diagrams. (DIAGRAM B IS AS THE SAME AS DIAGRAME A.)

Step 6: Assemble the front door.
Fit 5R the pre-assembled door to the front wall panel per the diagram. Use riveter to x the door
into the pre-drilled holes. Fix the pad bolt (but NOT its keeper in this stage) to the pre-drilled
holes using supplied rivets or self tapping screws.

Step 7: Fit the panels together.
Attach the two side walls to the back wall, then the front wall, then the roof. Fix all the
components by the self tapping screws. Fix the pad bolt keep with rivets or screws.

Sealey sheds are weatherproof; however, heavy winds with driving rain could cause your shed to
leak. Condensation will also occur in some weather conditions such as extreme heat or cold. We
would recommend the use of a waterproof sealant to help seal around all joins and wherever you
feel that water may get in under these extreme conditions.
Shed is not to be used to store corrosive substances or as a chemical store.
Apply channel safety cover Ltype on channel 32 and Rtype on channel 33R.
Apply the self-tapper covers on the screws xed on the wall to prevent accidental injuries.

If required, the door can be assembled on the opposite side. Align the door with the edge and
drill new holes. Remove the pin from the hinge and reverse it before assembling the door. Fill the
old pre-drilled holes with rivets if required. Perform the same procedure for the pad lock.
