PLAN AHEAD....

Watch the Weather: Be sure the day you select to install your building is dry and calm.

Do not attempt to assemble your building on a windy day. Be careful on wet or muddy ground.

Teamwork: Whenever possible, two or more people should work together to assemble

your building. One person can position parts or panels while the other is able to handle the

fasteners and the tools.

Tools and Materials: These are some basic tools and materials you will need for the

construction of your building. Decide which method of anchoring and the type of foundation

you wish to use in order to form a complete list of the materials you will need.

will be enough space at entrance for doors to open fully and enough space around the building to

be able to fasten the panel screws from the outside.

an anchoring system should be ready to use.
