END WALL INSTALLATION
The steps to install the end walls for the greenhouse
include the following:
1. Install end wall framing. (See the diagrams in the Quick
Start section at the back of these instructions. Read the
installing accessories note below.)
2. Prepare polycarbonate end panels and attach.
3. Assemble doors and attach.
INSTALL END WALL FRAMING (Front and Back)
Site variations and different methods for anchoring the
greenhouse may require slight changes to be made to
these instructions. It is the responsibility of the owner/
builder to adapt these instructions as needed to adjust for
these and other differences.
A NOTE ABOUT INSTALLING THE END WALL
FRAMING FOR OPTIONAL HEATERS, VENT FANS, AND
MOTORIZED SHUTTERS (if equipped):
Optional accessories such as heaters, vent fans and
motorized shutter units are typically installed or attached
to the end walls of this greenhouse. Additional horizontal
framing (included) is installed between the vertical end
wall frame tubes to mount these accessories. The spacing
shown for the end wall supports on the end frame diagrams
may be too narrow for the installation of some larger
accessories.
Diagrams do not show framing for the accessories.
When framing the end wall, consult the installation
instructions for the accessories (if equipped), or measure
the width of the accessory to accurately space and position
the end frame tubes.
Consult the panel installation diagrams in the Quick Start
section to identify the verticals that can be moved .
MOVE ONLY THE VERTICAL SUPPORTS LABELED
AS NON-CRITICAL.
Before installing any greenhouse accessory, adhere to the
following:
• Consult the end frame diagrams before installing the
accessory horizontal framing.
• Move only those verticals labeled as "NON-CRITICAL"
on the end frame diagrams when deciding where to
install the additional horizontal framing for accessories.
• Consult the diagrams in the Quick Start section
showing the polycarbonate panel locations and the
locations of the aluminum trim and profile before
repositioning any end wall vertical.
ANCHOR THE ASSEMBLED FRAME
At this point, anchor greenhouse frame. Consult the
MUST READ document for anchoring information and
suggestions. Please call customer service at 1-800-245-
9881 for additional anchoring information if needed.
CAUTION : The anchor assembly is an integral part
of
the greenhouse construction. Improper anchoring
may cause instability and failure of the structure to
perform as designed. Failing to anchor the shelter
properly will void the manufacturer’s warranty and
may cause serious injury and damage.
SQUARE TUBING INSTALLATION
Use the 102897 square tubing for all end wall framing. Use
the 104779 square tubing (plain ends) to secure the seam
between the roof panels.
