Not you but U Im talking about the U Channel component used in the construction industry But more importantly the critical role which U Channels play in the assembly process of your shed
U Channels are widely used today and its not hard to see why Made from metal or plastic these components offer many benefits to your shed They act as

A U Channel as the name implies is a component bent to form a U to affix sections or panels together.
When discussing shed assembly where sheets are joined together to form the walls channels are used as protective edges for the wall panels as well as provide further support to hold the panels together.
Youll find a length running from the top portion and another at the bottom of the joined sheets On the other hand channels also serve as frames for the door of a shed
Depending on the contour of the channels and panels you will be securely fixing together there are different and simple ways to join them together Some may need screws or bolts whereas other may just click together
