NOTE:

 The distances measured in the previous diagram 

are the same when the frame is square. When installing 
the roof panels, periodically check the frame for square. 

The frame must remain square for the roof panels to 
install correctly. 

 

23.  With the frame squared, locate a short section of 

roof support plate #SG10150 (26") and attach the 
support to the inside top of the first small front panel.  

 
 

 

 
 

NOTE: 

The first roof support plate is installed with one 

end positioned past the edge of the short front panel and 
flush with the polycarbonate of the angled end panel.  
 
 

 

 
 

24.  Choose two (2) forty-eight inch (48") roof support 

plates, attach these to the tops of the short front 
panels, and work toward the other end of the 
greenhouse.  

 
 

25.  Complete the installation of the lower roof support 

plates by installing another 26" section. 

 

 

 

NOTE:

 In the above diagram, the front panel has been 

moved to better show the roof support plates. 
 

 

26.  After installing the lower roof support plates, attach 

three 3" x 3" flat brackets to the end panels in the 
locations shown below

 for both ends.

 

 

 

 

Diagram above shows a wider model. 

 

27.  Place the first two roof panels in place and secure 

them to the 

lower roof support plates from the inside.
