Make it step by step
- Step 01
Place non-rolling sleepers parallel on level ground beneath cover, clear of the entrance.
- Step 02
Lay slats across them with drainage gaps smaller than shoe soles.
- Step 03
Bind every slat end and smooth splinters. Press each corner by hand, never by stepping on it.
- Step 04
Place shoes in pairs away from roof runoff. Always inspect their interiors before wearing.
Check before use
Shoes cannot drop through, the rack is steady and roof water misses it.
