Base
The integral base must be 100% level and square, the latter can be done by
checking the 2 diagonals are equal. If it is not square the glazing will not fit.

For each section, lay the profiles out on the ground in the same way as pictured in the
main diagram. Assemble in the order of the pictures.
M6 x 10 bolts/nuts (parts 50 and 51) are not listed on individual parts lists as they are
used in each section.

GB - Introduction
Take note of where you will need to slide extra bolts into the
channels for fixing horizontal bars, bracing or roof vent sills as
per example picture to the right.
Fasten the profiles together by sliding the square headed bolts
into the channel of the profile and attach to the hole in the
corresponding bar. Do not tighten the nuts completely until the
completed frame is square. NOTE THAT ALL CONNECTING PROFILES MUST BE FLUSH
AND TIGHT TOGETHER TO ENSURE THAT LEAKING IS KEPT TO A MINIMUM.
The door has a zero threshold™. Component 78 at the base of the door on the front
gable (SECTION 2 FRONT GABLE) is used as a brace to gauge the distance between the
two components 18 and to make construction easier. This will then be removed in
SECTION 10 FINISHING.
Glazing
Glazing must be completed in one operation. Fit the rubber glazing gasket to all the
profiles as shown in SECTION 9 before fitting the glass. Note there are 3 different plans
for glazing: horticultural glass, toughened glass or polycarbonate. Glaze the roof first,
then sides and gable ends. Glaze roof vents before sliding in from THE END of the
ridge bar as shown in SECTION 10 FINISHING. Glaze the door before hanging as
shown in SECTION 7 DOOR.
Finishing Touches
Fit all plastic parts, i.e. Ridge Cap, Gutter End Caps and Integral Base Corner Caps by
pushing into place as in SECTION 10 , FINISHING.
Note: Fit Integral Base Corner Caps before securing down the greenhouse.

The door sliders and lock will need to be lubricated approximately every 6
months with an OUTDOOR lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
The gutters will need to be regularly cleared of leaves and debris to ensure
efficient drainage.
Replace all broken panes of glass immediately, failure to do so may cause
structural failure.
Remove snow loads from the roof.
