Compared to vinyl or hardboard siding, installation of Hardie plank siding is very easy. You can easily use self-tapping screws to fix the siding to any flat surface of your home. Always start with the trim pieces, followed by larger sheets. To finish, just seal any gaps with a water resistant sealant and itâs all over.
Align the bottom of the bevel plank with the bottom of the starter strip, with the end flush against the trim, and use a 4-foot level to level it. Fasten the plank with galvanized ring shank nails long enough to penetrate the siding, sheathing and into the wall studs at least 1 1/4 inch. Drive nails through the bottom of the board, about 1 inch above the edge, one nail in each stud, 16 inches apart. Nail on a second plank abutting the first.
