DOOR FRAME ASSEMBLY
Components consist of:
2 door glazing bars
2 infill panels
2 top & bottom door panels
The 8’ long buildings has a double door (see next page) and the 10’ long building has 2 single doors
in bays 2 and 4.
1.
Place the two side door glazing bars on a level surface two feet apart with the bolt slots facing
downwards . The top of each side piece has two screw holes in it, the bottom has three. Insert
the glazing beading into the inside grooves of both bars. ( Key point ).
2 Place the top, bottom and two infill panels in position as shown by the position of the screw
holes in the side pieces of the panels. The top panel has the greenhouse name on it. The
bottom panel has the edge for the door skids to fit on. The lower infill panel locks on to the
bottom panel.
3. Fix the door together by screwing through the door side pieces into the screw eyes in the door
with the no.8 half-inch self –tapping screws. DO NOT fix the top left hand side screw yet.
The screws will go in more easily and without danger of trying to go crooked if you can put a
small amount of grease on the panel before assembling the doors. Alternatively, you could
insert the screws into the screw eyes of the door panels before assembling the doors, this
would have the effect of pre-self tapping the panels prior to assembly making assembly easier.
4. Fix the top left hand side with the longer screw provided. Put the screw through the door
catch so that the serrated part is facing outwards and upwards. Next slip two spring washers
on to the screw, and then fix the screw through the side of the door and into the top panel.
(
Key point ).
5. Make sure all the angles are square and tighten all screws.
6. Fix each door wheel into position by pushing the bolt provided through the centre of the
wheel and then through the hole in the top door panel from underneath (i.e. from the inside of
the door). Each wheel has a protruding collar on one side. This collar goes up against the in-
side flange of the top door panel. Put the washer over the bolt and secure with the nut provid-
ed, tightening until there is no movement on the bolt. The nuts are lock-nuts and are harder to
put on than normal nuts in general assembly. The wheel will revolve freely because it has ball
bearings in it.
7. Slip the nylon door skid on the bottom panel.
8. Turn the door over and insert the black brush draught excluders in the groove (bolt slot) in
each side piece of the door. Push up to the top of the door and trim off surplus at the bottom.
Slide a bolt into the bottom of each door post and put a nut on and tighten. This will prevent
the draught extruder from slipping down when the door is in its upright position.
9. Do not fit the door at this stage, see later page no 27 for this detail.

2 door wheels
