RIDGE
page 18
For a small greenhouse, you handle the ridge by yourself.
Over 12' long it be easier with 2 people. Set the ridge on top
of the end rafters in the middle of the greenhouse. Push the
end rafter out and drop the ridge down 2" and slide it in-
between as far as it goes. The bolt track in the poly bar lines
up with the punch mark in the ridge. Undo the bolt and slide
it up and fasten it
(See Pic E).

POLY BAR WITH VENT FRAME SLIDERS
page 23
Each poly bar has a slider with a number on it. This number
will also be marked on the ridge. Slide a bolt in the end of the
poly bar
(angle cut end)
and push it tight against the ridge and
bolt it on.
(see Pic G)
. At the bottom end of the poly bar that
now sits into the gutter, lift up the bar and slide the bolt
(or
use the punch out)
and fasten the bar to the gutter.
(See Pic F).

VENT FRAME BOTTOM SECTION
page 24
The vent frame bottom is now ready to go in between the
poly bars that you have just installed
(See Pic G).
The 2" side
of the angle faces towards the Ridge
(See Pic H).
Move the
bolt up the poly bar and fasten it. Be sure the slider
(on the
bar)
butts tight against the ridge lip
(See Pic I)
.
10. REMAINING POLY BARS
page 25
All remaining poly bars can now be installed. Make sure that
the top is against the ridge. Before you tighten the poly bar on
the gutter, eyeball the gutter to see if it is straight. There is
usually about a 1/8" space between the poly bar and the
gutter.
NOTE:
Fasten the greenhouse base/sill to the foundation using #8 x 1”
screws (if it is on concrete, drill holes using a concrete bit and push the
plastic plugs into the holes). If possible, lift the greenhouse and seal
below the base before fastening the greenhouse to the foundation.
11.
Your greenhouse is now ready for putting on the 1/8" foam
strips. Do not put the foam strips on the base or beside the
door. Only use the foam on the poly bars. Do not put foam
strips on the gutter
(See Page 26).
