Please note 35mm screws are not needed for a pent (This is a standard pack used for both pent and apex sheds) On the rare occasion that not enough screws are provided please contact us and make us aware so we can send more out to yourself.

  • Page 10: Floor

    Reminder Ensure bearers are added to the floor! USEFUL TIP! If you have purchased a POWER Base you can screw the floor to the timber POWER base below for maximum strength and security. Page 9 of 21...

  • Page 11: Walls

    Please see the components table to confirm which panels you should have for your Power Pent Bike Shed. Start with the 2ft panel that will be part of your back wall (the long wall without the door) – position this on top of the floor panel.
  • Page 12 Keep going until the back wall and both ends are secured together leaving the front section open. The back of our 8ft buildings will need to be built using a 2ft, then a 4ft, then another 2ft panel. Our 10ft buildings will need to built using one 2ft panel, then two 4ft panels.
  • Page 13 Once the two panels are on which go at the side both sides of the doors (door wings), you can add the door head. This is the part which has the ‘Power’ brand on. To secure these to the panels below you need to screw up through the door wings and into the door head.
  • Page 14 Make sure all the side walls are square and aligned at the When you have secured all the wall panels together you then need to secure these to the floor using 70mm screws provided. Screw into the floor with 2x screws for every wall panel (internally) ensuring the screws are driven through the framing at the bottom of the side/gable walls, through the floorboards and into the floor joists.

  • Page 15: Front Top & Gable

    Front Top & Gables The Power Pent Shed can be higher at the front or the back – you can choose this as you assemble it. Add the pent front tops to the side you want to be higher and screw to the panels below with 50mm screws.

  • Page 16: Roof

    Roof Your pent will come with two or more roof panels, please refer to your component checklist to ensure you have the correct pieces for your size shed. Place the roof panel(s) in place so that the framing on the roof panel run parallel with the gables i.e. from the high side to the low side.

  • Page 17: Doors

    Doors Your shed will come with two doors which you will need to hang. The door with the lock on will go on the right (as you look at the shed from the outside) and the door with the shoot bolts will go on the left. Position one of the doors in place ensuring the gap between the edge of the door and the shiplap tongue and groove cladding (which you will be screwing the doors in to) is approx.

  • Page 18: Felt

    Felt Health and Safety – Use safety goggles when installing the roofing felt. Before laying the felt, you will need to attach the back bargeboards (80mm) with the 40mm galvanised nails. Please refer to the components checklist to see how many you’ll require for your size shed. These bargeboards may come in more than one section and may need cutting down to size with a saw depending on which size shed you have chosen.

  • Page 19: Finishing Touches

    There is no bargeboard for the low side as it could trap rainwater from running off the roof. Secure cover lats which are 58mm wide, at each corner of your Power shed with 40mm nails (at least four per strip). Extra strips are provided to cover the joins between side wall panels.

  • Page 20: Aftercare & Maintenance

    USEFUL TIP – Looking for some inspiration? Our Instagram has images of hundreds of Power Sheds which have all been sent to us by customers and is a great way to look at the different ways you can build and paint your shed!
  • Page 21 (4x) board lengths (at either 4ft or 6ft depending what you ordered). Please note: These are 70mm wide and are the same material as the bargeboards. Be careful not to use these during assembly of your Power Shed – These boards are usually taped together. •...
  • Page 22 Returns If Power is not for you and you’d like to return your shed within 14 days of delivery then we will collect the item from you without charging a collection fee. No fuss, no fees! All we ask is that you do not unpack the shed or take the shed off the pallet. You will be able to see the shed panels on the pallet if you want to double check the quality of the shed panels.
