SNAPTiTE ASSEMBLY GUIDEThe Snaptite Assembly System locks end channels to all roof and wall sheets without the need fortools and fasteners.
To assemble each panel, the perimeter channels are secured to the top and bottom of each panel.
Gently tap the channel over the SNAPTiTE lugs on the sheet, working along the sheet.
Each perimeter channel must finish flush with the edges of the sheets. Simply tap the channel along
the sheets until each end is neatly flush. If you need to remove channels from the panels, slide it off
from the side.

Channel locks the shed panel into
position without the need for screws!

FASTENING SYMBOLS

T iTE

Secure channel to sheeting by SNAPTiTE

Join components together with one
screw at this location only, as somechannels have extra holes that are notrequired for this model of shed.
Do not join components together atthis location yet, as the screws may
obstruct further assembly of the othercomponents.

Step 1.
Place two ridge beams asshown and push them together.
Slide the cap of one under theother.

Step 3.
Turn over the ridge beam.
Measure 250mm from the
middle along the centre of one
ridge beam, mark spacings of
50mm. Fasten with a Tek screwat each marking.

NOTE.
There is a 50mm overlap of theridge caps when the beams arein position.

Step 2.
Use the ZARSP to connect at
the centre of the two ridge
beams. Be sure it is pushed infully.

Repeat to the other side of theridge beam assembly.

Trim the channels by 16.5mm toallow the sheets to be overlapped.

Overlap the panels and fasten as
shown.
Refer to the panel construction section of this instruction set for further details and ensure that theassembled panels are not joined together with pre-punched holes incorrectly positioned.
The overall length of each panel is the same as the ridge beam.

It is not critical that the overall dimension is exact but try and make sure the length is within 5mm.

Absco Sheds Storage Guidelines•

Absco Sheds are designed to be weatherproof for normal weather conditions. In the event of extreme
weather conditions such as heavy rain, combined with high wind gusts, the ridge capping, sheeting joins,screw fixings etc., may exhibit minor deformations which may allow some water entry. These areas should bechecked regularly to ensure that maximum strength and protection is maintained.

•

Other weather conditions such as extreme heat and extreme cold, moist or dry air can influence the effectsof concrete floor moisture and/or condensation on the underside of the roof sheets.

•

Absco Sheds and storage units are primarily used for storage of garden equipment such as lawnmowers,
wheelbarrows, garden tools etc. Storage items that might be adversely affected by any of the above conditions
may require additional protection such as being sealed or covered by plastic sheets and/or stacked above
the concrete floor on timber slats.

•

Waterproof sealants may be used to offer further protection where required around joins and screw fixings,
as can rubber door seals and other products which are available from most hardware outlets.

•

Placement of waterproof sealants (silicone) between the base of the shed and concrete slab is notrecommended, as this process can have a reverse effect, preventing excess water from escaping, resultingwith water accumulating and being trapped inside the shed.

•

Absco accepts no responsibility for water entry, floor moisture, condensation or the condition of the Contents
inside your Absco steel building arising from any of the pre-mentioned weather conditions.
