Foundation
The base is not included in this delivery.
However, an original base can be bought
separately. It ensures you a stable and easy to
build base.
If you make your own base the measurements
indicated must be external measurements.
If you buy an original base you furthermore
need about 75 litres of concrete and 6/8
plastic-/concrete pipes of about 800 mm which
are placed in a non-freezing depth for the
fastening of the corner and middle anchors.
The base must be 100% level and square; the
latter is ensured by checking that the two
diagonal measurements are equal.
Tools
The mounting of the greenhouse requires the
tools shown on page 12.
Page 14-27:
Place the components as shown on the
illustration and assemble in the order shown
in the pictures. Do not tighten the nuts
completely until the front gable construction
has been assembled.
Page 13:
(Fastening to the base).
When constructing your own base you have
to drill holes (7 mm) in the ground frame
between all the vertical frames, the greenhouse
is then fastened to the base with screws (A).
Using an original base the greenhouse is
fastened to each vertical bar as shown on
drawing B/C.
Page 24-27:
For an easier assembly we recommend that you
oil the screws for the doors.
Fitting of glass/polycarbonate
Important before glazing!
Make sure that gables and sides are level and
square, and that door(s) and window(s) are
functioning perfectly.
Best order of assembly:
1) Windows – 2) Roof – 3) Doors – 4) Gables
– 5) Sides
Page 30-33:
Glazing (illustration 1 to 8)
Degrease the sheets and frames with spirit.
Start glazing from below, one glass at a time.
Apply a 3 mm silicone line on the vertical
frames where indicated (dotted lines on
the illustration). (A 3 mm line of silicone is
sufficient to obtain maximum attachment). If
you do use more than recommended, you can
buy extra tubes.
Spring wire clips and glassholders are to be
fitted as shown.
X = Spring wire clips, > = Glassholders
In case of broken glass carefully pull it
outwards and loosen the silicone by means of a
sharp craft knife.
Clean the profile completely before inserting a
new pane of glass.

Mounting of polycarbonate
The illustrations at the bottom of page 34/36
show where to mount the polycarbonate plates
and lists. The type indication states the length
in mm. A possible adjustment is made by
means of a fine-tooth saw.
NB! To avoid the formation of algae the
polycarbonate sheets must not come into
contact with the ground. Rest them on a piece
of cardboard.
A-lists are mounted as shown on page 35/37.
Put the sheet into the bottom list, bend the
sheet slightly outwards and put it in the top list.
M-lists are mounted as shown on page 35/37.
Place the upper part of the list under the alu.
profile in the whole length of the sheet and
hereafter click on the list from above.
Sealing of the polycarbonate sheets
The sheets may be sealed against insects.
Close the top end off with alu-tape or silicone.
The bottom only with airstrip tape to let
condensation out (available at your local
dealer).
Now your greenhouse is completely assembled.

DEAR CUSTOMER
Congratulations on purchasing your new
greenhouse. It is important that you follow these
assembly instructions step-by-step.
The assembly instructions are a combination of text
and illustrations. The profiles are packed in separate,
numbered packs corresponding to their order of use
in the instructions. Assemble one pack at a time. All
nuts, bolts and fittings are contained in a Box.
Each pack is specified in separate lists of
components.
All detailed illustrations are marked with the
following symbols:

SOME SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
Assembly must only be carried out in dry and
calm weather.
•
Always wear work gloves when installing the
glazing. Greenhouse glass has sharp edges,
especially if it breaks.
•
Assistants and especially children must be
warned that broken glass is dangerous. Pick
up all broken glass at once and remove it with
care.
•
We recommend that you wear protective
glasses while fixing the spring wire clips.
•
Any ladders that are used must be placed on a
level surface.
•
It is essential to have an assistant available.
PAGE 12: TOOLS
Assembling the greenhouse requires the tools
shown on page 12.
PAGE 15: FOUNDATIONS
No base is included with this product. However, an
original base is available separately. This base is easy
to construct and will guarantee you a stable base for
your greenhouse.
If you construct your own base, the specified
measurements must be external measurements.
The holes must be dug out to below the frost line
(800 mm). Place the assembled base with anchor
legs over the holes so the anchor legs fit into the
holes; it takes about 75 litres of concrete to fill up
the holes.
Make sure the base is completely level and square.
To square the base, make sure the two diagonal
measurements are identical.
The width of the front and back gables must also be
identical.
ATTACHMENT TO THE BASE
If you construct your own base, you must drill holes
(7mm) in the ground frame between all the vertical
profiles. The greenhouse must then be secured to
the base using screws (A).
If you use an original base, the greenhouse must be
secured to each vertical bar as shown on drawings
B/C.
PAGE 14-25: ORDER OF ASSEMBLY
Place the components as shown on the illustration
and assemble in the order shown in the pictures. Do
not tighten the nuts fully until the entire sub-frame
has been assembled.
PAGE 20-21: ROOF
The two automatic openers should be frequently
adjusted and at least twice a year in response to
major temperature changes.
The cylinder allows travel of 20–30 mm for the
hood. The actual cylinder can be moved up and
down. If the rod is in the lowest position, the travel
will be greatest. If the cylinder is moved upwards,
there will be less travel.
If you wish to close the hood completely, move the
cylinder to its lowest position and lock it in place by
turning the screw towards the cylinder. Do not over-
tighten the screw.
PAGE 22-25: DOORS AND WINDOWS
For easier assembly, we recommend that you oil the
screws for the doors. The glass or polycarbonate for
the door(s) and windows must be fitted at the same
time as the profiles.
SIDE 25: DOWNPIPE AND FITTINGS
PAGES 26-29: FITTING OF GLASS
Important before assembly!
Make sure that the gables and sides are level
and square and that door(s) and window(s) are
functioning perfectly.
The best order of assembly for the glass:
Windows - Roof - Doors - Gables - Sides
Glass installation (illustrations 1 to 8)
Degrease the sheets and frames with spirit.
Start glazing from the bottom, one pane at a time.
Apply a 3mm silicone bead around the vertical
frames as indicated (the dotted lines on the
illustration). (A 3mm bead of silicone is sufficient to
ensure maximum adhesion). If you use more silicone
than recommended, extra tubes can be purchased.
If you accidentally break a pane, carefully pull the
broken glass outwards and loosen the silicone using
a sharp craft knife.
Clean the profile completely before inserting a new
pane of glass.
M-strips are fitted as shown on pages 26. Place the
upper part of the strip under the aluminium profile
along the full length of the sheet and then click the
strip into position from above.
Your greenhouse is now fully assembled. However,
please note the following:
MAINTENANCE
•
Grease the doors (hinges and locks).
•
Keep the gutters free from leaves, etc.
•
Adjust the windows as necessary.
•
Replace any broken glass.
•
Clean the greenhouse with disinfectant before
and after the growing season.
WINTER PROTECTION
If you anticipate snow during the winter, we
recommend the following winter precautions:
•
Support the apex of the roof in the middle.
•
Remove any deep snow from the roof.
•
Take precautions to prevent snow falling from
a tree or roof, for example.
•
Adjust the cylinders for the opening of the
hood.
•
Secure the door(s) and window(s) to prevent
wind damage to the greenhouse.
WATER AND CONDENSATION
Please note that your greenhouse is not like a
conservatory, for example, and that you should
therefore be aware that the greenhouse may leak
during or after precipitation and that condensation
will occur on the inside of the greenhouse. Good
ventilation will help prevent condensation.
INSURANCE
Please note that not all insurance companies cover
greenhouses automatically. Please contact your
insurance company to ensure that your greenhouse
is covered.
