  • Page 19 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 13. The handles are fitted to the infill panel on each door (choose be- tween 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 21 ASSEMBLY OF THE GREENHOUSE UNIT PROCEDURE: With the help of a willing assistant, stand up the rear gable and one of the sides. Standing on the inside of the structure with the gutter facing away from you, insert the eave/gutter bar into the gap between the corner bars, so that the inside flanges which form the angle of the roof and side line up with the bolt slots in the corner bars.
  • Page 22 The bottom built in base cill of the sides attaches to the corner bars in a similar way. Undo the nuts and bolts inserted in the gable end assembly, move the built in base cill under the corner bar so that the elongated hole in the vertical flange of the built in base cill lines up with the bolt slot in the corner bar.
  • Page 23 Every glazing bar is fitted with a cantilever. Small cantilevers across the gutter on both sides (side bar to roof bar). Large cantilevers across the ridge (roof bar to roof bar). You must remember to insert one extra bolt per cantilever T-bar brace and one per vent per bar.
  • Page 24 SECURING GREENHOUSE TO PERMANENT BASE The main structure is now complete and it must now be fitted onto its base for securing down. SQUARING UP You must make sure that the structure is level and square. Put one pane of glass in each corner of roof, each pane must be level with the small glass retaining lip just above the gutter and be running parallel with the roof glazing bars.
  • 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: Finishing Off

    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 27 FITTING THE ROOF CANOPY This must be done AFTER the roof vent(s) is/are fitted. The canopy is fitted on top of the ridge bar, and is slight- ly longer than the ridge.
