The doors will now run quite freely. To square up the door with the spacing, undo the upper bolts
holding the door track. There is a little play to facilitate “fine tuning” of the doors.
N.B.
Sometimes
the doors can be a little stiff prior to glazing but once the glass has been inserted (the last job of the
construction) the extra weight will make for smooth running.
Loosely attach 2 flat bars to the bolt channel of the door track (1 each end) and allow to hang verti-
cally downwards. The flat bar has 2 holes. Attach the larg-
er hole to the door track by inserting a bolt into the chan-
nel of the track. Now slide the flat bar along the door track
until the point that the smaller hole of the flat bar meets
the self tapping screw groove of the roof corner bar. If
you are happy that the doors are running smoothly, insert
a self tapping screw into the smaller hole of the flat bar
and in turn into the self tapping groove and tighten. Re-
peat on the other end of the door track. This attachment
will support the weight of the doors when they are in the
open position.
Attach two small angles (1” x 1 ½”) to the ends of the top door track, these will act as stops when
opening the door. The part of the angle with 2 holes is attached to the bolt slot at the back of the top
door track. This in turn will allow the blank side to cap the end of the track preventing the door
from sliding off the track.
FITTING THE RAMP
The final aluminium piece of the greenhouse is the door end ramp cill. The ramp is attached to the
door end cill by engaging the nub of the door end cill to the ‘C’ groove of the ramp. The ramp is
now rotated to horizontal. Drill a hole at each end approx 20mm in from the end of the ramp and
into the floor. Plug and screw.
If you are fitting onto soft ground, you must ensure that a solid material is underneath the ramp to
avoid damage when you step on the ramp to enter the greenhouse. You can lay a row of bricks sunk
to ground level, a concrete flag, a piece of aluminium base pressed into the ground to ground level
or something similar. You can then screw the ramp into the support material for a secure fixing.
