8. Check that all angles between built in base and the vertical members are at right angles and
that the glazing bars are right into the built in base at the bottom. (Key Point).
9. Tighten all nuts.
10. Slide two extra bolts into the built in base. This will be used later to attach the corner bracket.
11. Slide a bolt into the bolt slot in the built in base section, one at each end. Attach the corner
bracket so that it is pointing downwards. If you are fitting your greenhouse onto soft ground, then
do not fit the corner bracket yet. If you are on a patio, you will need to cut the bracket off, level
with the bottom of the built in base and slide extra bolts into the bolt channel to be attached to the
corner bracket (generally 1 every 2’). If you are on soil, the corner bracket will go into the ground at
general assembly.
DOOR END ASSEMBLY
From the main bag of fittings you will require the nuts and bolts, 2 eave plates and 1 ridge plate.
These are packed with the casement stay and are separate from the main bag of fittings.
Please note, you only require approx. 40mm of beading in the inside ‘v’ groove of the end glazing
bars.
Components
2 door end built in base
2 end glazing bars
side corner bars (unmarked)
top door track
door end horizontal angle
door end bracing angles
main door track support
2 roof corner bars (marked “R”)
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Assemble the frame in exactly the same way as the rear
end, up to and including stage 3 of the rear end. The differ-
ence with the door end is that instead of 1 long built in base
piece, the door end has 2 smaller pieces (1 either side of the
door opening) and 1 door end cill. The 2 vertical glazing bars
are longer than the same bars used on the rear end assembly
(Key Point) .
2. Now engage the door end cill with the 2 built in base pieces by push-
ing the angle of the cill under the locator as shown in the diagram. At this
stage the cill will move freely left and right but will remain located to the
built in base.
3. Slide 2 bolts into the bottom of each glazing bar and 3 bolts (only 1 if
greenhouse to be sited on soft ground) into the free end of each built in base
section. Attach the 2
nd
bolt in the glazing bar to the hole in the door end cill,
but do not put a nut on yet. Remember, the door end glazing bars are 95
mm longer than the rear end ones and do not sit on top of the base (as
the rear end glazing bars do), they go down the side of the base and attached to the bottom
cill. (Key Point)
