measure the exact same distance) and continue with the other holes and "dowels" as you did
with the first one.
Now check if the foundation frame lies exactly horizontally on the concrete. Otherwise, please
"underpin" the foundation frame with suitable material so that everything is perfectly level.
The first and most important construction phase is now finished!! – As with all things, a good,
precisely built foundation is the basis for success!

2. Mounting the greenhouse corner profiles –
The upright corner profiles are attached to the protruding pipe ends (PVC and stainless steel
dowel) so that the small 5 mm holes (in the middle) are positioned on the outside toward the
long sides (they will be used to attach the gutter downpipes). The profiles are pushed into the
plastic corner connectors – please make sure they go all the way to the bottom, they should
not get caught on the edge.

3. Mounting the eaves profiles
This profile is inserted from the top into the upright corner profiles using already mounted short
pipe ends. Also here, please make sure that the profile fully rests on the corner profile.

4. Mounting the gable crossbeams
This profile is connected to the eaves profile by mounting the stainless steel corner connectors.
The bevel of these connectors must show 30° towards the front sides. Later, the roof edge bars
will be attached here. There are right and left versions!

5. Inserting the glazing on all sides
Now the complete greenhouse contour – up to the height of the eaves – is built up.
The construction is still a bit wobbly, but already firm enough that all the side ISO safety glass
panes can be set all around. Since all the panes are the same size, there can be no confusion
in the choice of panes. Insert the top of the panes as far up into the eaves profile as you can so
that they slide over the edge of the soil profile and fit into that channel.
