Step 7: Install the Door Roof Overhang.
Included are two braces for
the roof overhang. The one
with the notch-out will be
placed on the door’s right
side, with that notch-out over
the hinge.
Lift the roof piece up away
from the wall. Place the brace
with the notch-out against the
wall, so it is flush on the wall
between the roof overhang and
the trim of the door. The brace should
be even along the outside of the
door’s trim.
Fasten the top screw into the
wall first, then the bottom screw,
and finally the middle screw.
Place the second brace on the door’s opposite side,
even along the door’s trim. Fasten the top screw,
then the bottom screw, and finally the middle screw.
Lastly, fasten the screws into the horizontal piece
of the brace into the roof, making
sure that underneath, there is
half an inch (0.5") of space
between the brace and the
roof frame’s inside edge.
Repeat for both braces.
If one side of the door is closer
to the trim than the other, lift
one side of the shed accordingly
and block it up. That will correct
the reveal.
If, either after assembly or even
years down the road, the door
isn’t closing fully against the frame,
open the door up to see the metal
wire brace on the door. Using a
wrench, adjust the brace to be either
tighter or looser, depending on what is needed. That
will allow the door to close properly again.
If the latch is not turning properly, go
inside the shed. There is a screw on the
latch. Adjust it by using an Allen wrench
to turn that screw.
Step 8: Install the Roof.
Note: The overhang on the
roof piece will always be
on the low wall.
From the back of the
shed, place the roof on
top of the shed, making
sure to place it higher up
on the high end and slide it back
down into place, that way the face
board overlaps the wall trim. Make
sure that the sides of the roof are snug and locked in
place and that each rafter of the roof is down against
the top of the front and back walls.
Additionally, walk around the outside of the shed,
verifying that the trim pieces and face board overlap
properly.
Then, go back inside the shed and
fasten in the short black screws
on each side. If they fell out during
shipping, get more from the bag that
has extra. Be sure to do this on each side.
Next, fasten screws up into all
rafters, on both the front and
back ends of the shed.
Step 9: Touch up the Paint.
Lastly, touch up any blemishes
on the shed with the touchup
paint that is included in the
order.
