Doors
Locate the left and right hand doors.
The right hand door features a full length
astragal door strike along one edge
(Diagram 15A) which closes over the left
hand door. Doors must be installed so
that they open out from the shed. Install
the right hand door first by aligning the
top and bottom hinges with the predrilled
holes in the aluminum frame of the door
opening. Use the screws (Diagram 15B)
provided. Install the left hand door in the
same manner, checking to make sure the
right hand door seats flush and square
against the left hand door astragal.
Affix a door handle on the outside of each
door with the bolts provided (Diagram
15C). Affix slide locks top and bottom on
the door (not shown).

Door Alignment Tips
Before attempting to align doors, while inside
the building, insert a screw in the first hole of the
Base Tracks at the Door Jambs.
NOTE:
1. Before you install screws in the Slope Wall Caps
(roof/wall line), you must
align
the doors.
DO NOT
install screws unless the doors are lined up properly.
2. If you have installed your doors and you are
experiencing problems, as in Figure 16A, use the
following instructions to correct: To obtain an even
vertical gap between the doors, i.e. the doors are
touching at the top or the bottom, gently push the
building back and forth, not side to side. To obtain
an even horizontal gap between the doors and the
Door Lintel, i.e. the top of one door is higher than
the other, gently push the shed side to side. You will
notice that the doors shift as you push the building.
3. If you have installed your doors and you are
experiencing problems as in Figure 16B, use the
following instructions to correct: In Figure 16B,
the right door does not line up properly with the left
door because the bottom of the right door appears
bent inward. To correct this, gently push on the
building at the top of the front right corner (at the
point shown in Figure 16B) until the right door is
aligned properly. If the left door appears bent
inward, correct the alignment by pushing on the
top left corner of the building.
4. Complete your assembly by installing a few
screws at a time. For example, install two or three
screws and check your doors. Repeat this procedure
until all the screws are installed.
5. If you are still experiencing problems, call the
consumer service line for assistance.
