Base
Ensure base is square and level. A
galvanised steel prefabricated base is
available from stockists for all models (on
very exposed sites, drill sills and steel base
and secure with nuts and bolts).
Should you wish to build a brick or concrete
base follow the dimensions given in section A.
Fix timber battens (29 x 18mm) as shown and
drill through sill members in the centre of each
bay (leaving adequate room to glaze) and fix
using No. 12 x 50mm screws and plugs.
N.B. All illustrations are viewed from the
inside. Except those marked
