  • Page 6 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE 6’3” WIDE MODEL “TITAN 600” RANGE” THE CONTENTS OF THIS CARTON ARE DIVIDED INTO DIFFERENT FRAME AS- SEMBLIES THAT COLLECTIVELY MAKE UP THE COMPLETED GREENHOUSE FRAMEWORK. It is recommended that each framework assembly is fully completed before moving onto the next. The contents are as follows: 1.
  • Page 7 SIDE FRAME ASSEMBLY When you come to the greenhouse itself start by assembling the side frames first. The base is integrated with the cill for each side of the greenhouse, and is assembled onto each sub- assembly rather than separately laid out. Lay out the pieces on the ground as though you were standing inside the house, i.e.
  • Page 8 If your greenhouse is over 12’5” in length, you will need to attach the side base sections together to form the length of your greenhouse. You will notice that you have 4 side base pieces, 2 of which will be un-fabricated at 1 end. These 2 sections are handed sections and must be fitted to the correct side assembly.

  • Page 10 REAR END ASSEMBLY Components 1 Built in base cill “marked rear end” 2 Block glazing bars 2 Roof corner bars (marked “R” at the apex) 2 Side corner bars 2 Diagonal cross ties 1 Horizontal brace From the main bag of fittings you will require the nuts and bolts. You will also require 2 eave plates and 1 ridge plate.
  • Page 11 Check that all angles between the built in base and the vertical members are at right angles and that the block glazing bars are tight into the angle cill at the bottom. (Key point). Tighten all nuts. The built in base has a continuous bolt channel along its length. Slide 4 bolts into this channel (if you are installing the greenhouse onto hard standing) or 2 bolts (1 at each end if installing onto soft ground).

  • Page 14 The long door end glazing bar is a slightly different profile than the rear end block glazing bars and has 2 continuous bolt channels along its length on the inside and 2 beading channels. During construction the beading channels will always be on the outside of the greenhouse. (Key point).
  • Page 15 The blank end will be fixed during general assembly. By drilling a 4mm hole in the door bar and inserting a self tapping screw through it and into the facing slot in the side corner bar. Do the same for the 2 small angle door track support at the opposite end of the top door track.
  • Page 16 DOOR END ASSEMBLY...
  • Page 17 DOOR FRAME ASSEMBLY Each Door consists of: 1 unhanded door post 1 handed door post (handed post for left door is different profile to the handed right hand door post) 3 infill panels (1 with pre fabricated lock hole) for lock barrel 1 top and bottom door panels 3 panels of glass which must be fitted during door assembly.
  • Page 18 Before fitting the unhanded door post, offer the glass panels to the door (see glazing plan in booklet for glass size guide on door), slide them in from the side. Carefully attach the unhand- ed door post in the same way as before, ensuring the glass is sitting in the correct position (sitting on the beading channels of the door posts) before tightening the screws.
  • Page 20 ROOF VENT ASSEMBLY The roof vent pack has 5 pieces of aluminium: and from the main box of fittings you require 6’ of glazing beading 4 nuts and bolts 2 casement stay pins 1 casement stay 6 M4 stainless steel nuts and bolts PROCEDURE: Identify the slam bar and attach the 2 stay pins to the outer side of the angle using the M4...

  • Page 22 ASSEMBLY OF GREENHOUSE UNIT The first operation is to connect the two side frames to the end frames to form the outer shape of the completed structure. Another pair of willing hands would be useful at this stage. Lift the first side frame into its position by the rear end. Slot the eaves bar into the small space between the roof and side corner bar so that the gutter is outside the end frame and the two flanges that form the angle of the roof and side are inside and tight up against the bolt slots of the roof and side corner bar.
  • Page 23 Line up the slotted holes at the end of the ridge with the bolt slots, in the corner bars and push the two bolts, previously inserted during gable end assembly, into the slots. Tighten the nut. Slide the glazing beading into both V grooves of the roof glazing bars. They can now be attached to the ridge and gutter.
  • Page 24 When the vent is in position and it opens and closes correctly, you can now insert a black flexible tube into the same channel of the ridge that the vent slides. Move the tube along the ridge until it meets the vent. Now insert a self tapping screw into the long side of the tube to expand the tube to remain in position.
  • Page 25 EXTERIOR DOOR TRACK This top door track has no holes in, but 1 continuous bolt slot. You must have the door track cen- trally positioned. Insert 3 bolts into the bolt slot and line them up with the 3 holes in the door track support, put the nuts on and tighten up.
  • Page 26 FITTING THE DOOR HANDLES The handles are fitted to the infill panel on each door (choose between 1st or 2nd panel down). Position the handle centrally, and mark the hole position. Drill 7mm diameter holes (2 holes per door), then fit the handles, and secure with a nut and bolt.
  • Page 27 FINISHING OFF To prevent the door from sliding past its opening, you must fix 2 angle brackets to the door end as- sembly. Insert a cropped head bolt into the bolt channel at the top of the left hand glazing bar (viewed from the inside) and fix and angle bracket as shown in the picture below.
  • Page 28 10 BLADE LOUVRE The louvre can not be fitted to any of the corner bays of the greenhouse. Procedure Place top cill into position on side jamb of louvre and secure with self tapping screws. 2. Do same on the other top corner. 3.
  • Page 29 TOUGHENED GLASS Always handle glass with extreme care as failure to do so can result in injury. Your greenhouse is supplied with PVC bar capping and you will find the bar capping installation instructions with the bundle of capping. Your greenhouse is glazed using both wire clips and then bar capping on top. Wire Clips Start with the panes of glass on the side (see glazing plan later in this booklet), Insert 4 wire clips as illustrated, put one ’wing’...
