GLASSHOUSE LAYOUT DIAGRAM Throughout this instruction booklet and in the boxes of parts you have received you will find these colours used to show which end and side your parts are.
Page 5
SIDE WALL LAYOUT Please note that the Side Walls shown have the Eden Base Kit attached.
Page 6
ANCHORING THE GLASSHOUSE The anchors should be on all four corners of the glasshouse. Longer models will have extra anchors which can be spaced out along the side. Please note that the holes in the base for the anchor posts are not factory drilled- you will need to drill your own where best fits.
Page 7
YOUR EDEN GLASSHOUSE COMES WITH SILL + BASE PRE-ASSEMBLED. If you have ordered ‘No Base Kit’ you will receive only the Sills with no Base panels. GUSSETS Gussets are placed on the inside of the Glasshouse, with the stickers facing outward. The coloured sticker dots should be covered by the Vertical of the same colour when looking from the outside of the Glasshouse.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS OVERVIEW Please read instructions fully before assembling. - Identify the position for the anchor posts and dig holes where necessary. - Assemble Side Walls. - Assemble Rear Wall. - Assemble Front Wall. - Attach all Walls. NOTE - Keep braces and gussets finger-tight only at this point. - Attach Roof Bars, Roof Braces, and Ridge Bar.
Page 9
6 SERIES GLASSHOUSE NOTES PLEASE OPEN ONLY ONE BOX AT A TIME AND COMPLETE SECTION ASSEMBLY BEFORE OPENING THE NEXT BOX. All bolts are 10mm standard size. Do not fully tighten all bolts until the glasshouse has been glazed. This allows for movement in the frame if the base is not completely level or square.
Page 10
PRELOADING The below diagram illustrates how bolts are pre-loaded. - Bolts slide down the bottom tracks of Side + Roof Bars, Mitres, Posts and Head Sections. - Bolts will need to be pre-loaded in the Front Wall, Rear Wall, and Mid Wall sections. - In some cases, several bolts will need to be pre-loaded onto one part.
Page 11
SIDE WALL ASSEMBLY: Gutter + Sill length, and number of Side Bars depends on model size. NOTE: Side and Roof Bars come with glazing rubber pre-installed to 50mm from the top end (which attaches to the Gutters). This has been done to make glazing the glasshouse easier, as you will need to slide the top pane of glass slightly underneath the Gutter, the gap in the rubber stops unnecessary pressure being applied.
Page 12
PRE-LOAD DIAGRAM: SIDE WALLS Pre-load one bolt at either end of each Side Bar, to attach to the Gutter and Side Sill.
Page 13
SIDE WALL ASSEMBLY Keep bolts finger tight at this point. NOTE: Lay Side Bars, Gutters, Side Braces, and Side Sills according to the diagram below (with bolts pre-loaded). First, attach Side Bars to Gutters and Sills, and then attach Side Braces to Sills and Gutters.

Page 24
ATTACHING SECTIONS REMINDER: Slopes and Verticals are labelled ‘LH’ (Left Hand) and ’RH’ (Right Hand). - The Side Walls are joined to Front and Rear walls by the same bolt track as on the Side Sills. - Pre-load a bolt into the top end of the Vertical, and bottom end of the Slope (use a nut to keep the bolt in place for ease) - Bring the Side Wall Gutter against the Gusset, underneath the Slope and inside the Vertical.
Page 25
MID-WALL JOINERS & EXTENSIONS If your glasshouse is 16’, 20’, 24’ or above you will find one or more ‘MID-WALL JOINERS’ within your glasshouse parts. Your glasshouse has been separated into either 8’, 10’, or 12’ sections to allow for the strongest possible construction – and between these sections is a MID-WALL JOINER.
ROOF ASSEMBLY Once the Ridge Bar has been attached, you can begin attaching the Roof Bars and Roof Braces between the Ridge Bar and Gutters. ROOF BAR TO RIDGE ROOF BRACE TO RIDGE BAR ROOF AND SIDE BAR TO GUTTER Select where you would like to place the Roof Vents –...
Page 28
ROOF ASSEMBLY Vent Packs Vent Packs are made up of the LH and RH Vent Bars, Vent Bottom, the Vent Hinge, and Vent Sill (used later). Vent Packs are glazed with 2 clips. - The Vent Bars are attached to the Hinge and Bottom by the bolt track on the under-side of each.
Page 29
ROOF ASSEMBLY Vent Packs Roof Vents will take the place of the top pane of glass. The Vent Sill is bolted to the underside of the Roof Bars holding the Roof Vent and allow the Vents to close properly (shown below). The Vent Hinge slides onto the Ridge Bar in the small, rounded channel on the Ridge itself (as below).

LOUVRE ASSEMBLY - First, place a pane of ‘A’ glass into the bottom of the section where you would like your Louvre to be positioned and clip glass in. - Sit the Louvre ‘T-Bar’ atop this glass with the flat face on the inside. Fix the ‘T-Bar’...

HANGING THE DOOR Once the glasshouse is constructed and the Door has been assembled you can attach the Door. Slide the Door Head wheels inside the Top Track at the top (shown adjacent). At the same time as above, slide the Door Style into the Door Sill –...
Page 32
GLAZING NOTE: Please handle glass with care as some panes may be sharp! - For ease of installation, your glasshouse should be glazed from the bottom row up (excluding the ‘A’ pane supporting the Louvre) Glaze the entire first layer of the glasshouse, moving upward and finishing at the ridge.
