ANCHOR THE GREENHOUSE (CONTINUED)
SCENARIO #4: No Base Frame: Greenhouse Is On
Soil (or Gravel)
To anchor the assembled greenhouse frame to a non-
concrete site without the optional base frame, you must use
a treated-wood base frame to set the greenhouse on.
Ground posts are then driven into the ground on either the
inside or outside of the treated-wood base frame. The wood
frame is anchored to the ground posts using lag screws
inserted through the ground post holes and screwed into
the wood.
After securing the treated-wood frame to the ground posts,
the assembled greenhouse frame is placed on the wood
base, squared, and anchored to the wood base using lag
screws inserted through pre-drilled holes in the base rail
of the greenhouse frame and screwed into the wood. Use
the diagrams below to anchor the greenhouse to a non-
concrete site when the optional base frame is not used.
Diagram shows lag screws installed through the ground
post and into the 4" x 4" treated wood base frame. The
dashed line shows where to install the lag screw when a
2" x 4" or 2" x 6" treated-wood frame is used.

NOTE: Only the top hole in the ground post is used when a
2" x 4" or 2" x 6" treated-wood base is used.
In all instances for the wood base, the ground posts are
driven flush to the top of the wood base as shown.
After anchoring the treated-wood frame to the site and the
greenhouse frame to the wood frame, continue with the
greenhouse assembly instructions that follow.
