Instructions / Assembly

ROOF/WALL FRAME ASSEMBLY
Before you start the assembly of the Roof/Wall sections, stack the Peak tubes, line up the ends and mark a line on the
top of each peak 17 1/8” or 3 5/8” from one end. This will be the location of the edge of your first run of sheet metal pan-
els on the roof of the carport. If your carport is 10’, 12’,18’, 24’, or 30’ wide place the mark at 17 1/8” from the end. If your
carport is 14’ or 20’ wide, place the mark 3 5/8” from the end.

HEIGHT EXTENSIONS
10’, 12’, 14’, 18’, 20’, 24’, OR 30’
On the ground, assemble (1) peak, (2) rafters, (2) side posts, and (2) height extensions. (8’, to 12 1/2’ side height car-
ports require height extensions.)
Before you fasten the joints with screws, take a measurement across the top and bottom of the assembly as shown. This
outside measurement is the outside size of your carport. (10’, 12’, 14’, 18’, 20’, 24’, or 30’) Try to keep the joint spacing
on both sides of the assembly equal. It is very helpful to drive stakes into the ground at the width of the building
and use them to set the dimension at the bottom of the assembly. You should set the bottom dimension before
you adjust and set the top dimension.
Now, fasten the joints with #12 hex head, self-drilling screws. Use 4 screws in the peak to rafter and side post to rafter
joints and 2 screws in the height extension joints. See details below.
NOTE: You can use the first assembly as a template to assemble the remaining Roof/Wall Frames.
