Installation Sequence for Shake Select Square Siding
Second, Third and Subsequent Panels
1. Match up the corresponding panel V notches (1 to 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3). Attach the
corresponding panels to the wall in the same manner as the first panel.
2. Continue this sequence to the end of the wall.
Second Course
To ensure a random shake pattern, start the second course using a #3 panel. Determine
the starting point for a #3 panel by measuring 16” from the left side of the #1 panel on
the first course and make a mark. Panels should be stair-stepped up the wall on
16” offsets.
1. Install the #3 panel from the
mark to the right.
2. To achieve the proper exposure,
measure up from the top of the
panel or up from the bottom of
the panel and make a mark. Align
this mark with the top of the
panels installed on the wall on
the first course.
3. Refer to the following guidelines
for the specific product
exposures:
a. Shake Select Square Straight
Edge 5” Exposure: Measure
up 5” from the bottom of the
panel or measure up 5” from
the top of the panel and make
a mark on the wall.
b. Shake Select Square Straight Edge 7” Exposure: Measure up 7” from the bottom
of the panel or measure up 7” from the top of the panel and make a mark
on the wall.
c. Shake Select Square Staggered Edge: Measure up 7” from the top of the panel.
