INSTALL THE POLYCARBONATE DOOR PANELS
The steps to prepare and install the polycarbonate panels
for the doors are similar to those described in the vent
panel installation procedure. The door panels are lettered
for identification.
NOTE:
The protective film has not been removed in the
following photos.
You must remove the film as instructed
during the assembly process.
The parts needed to complete the door frame assembly
include:
• Two (2) Y panels (top/bottom frames)
• Four (4) precut lengths of plastic U-strip profile (U530)
• Silicone
NOTE:
The U530 plastic U-strips are precut and are as
long as the polycarbonate panel is wide.
You do not have to
cut any plastic molding.
If it appears as though the plastic molding is the incorrect
length, search through the remaining molding until you
locate the correct length for the panels.
Complete these steps:
ATTENTION:
Install the polycarbonate panels with the
UV-protected side to the
outside of the greenhouse.
If you
remove the protective film before installing the panels, mark
the panel in a lower corner so that the panel is installed
correctly.
1. Locate the first Y panel and two lengths of the plastic
U-strips for that panel.

No. 4-4
2. Carefully peal the protective film away from the edge
on both sides of the panel.
Do not
completely remove
the protective film until the plastic U-strips are installed.
Plastic U-Profile
Install this
edge toward
the UV-
protected side
of the panel.
Install this
edge on the
backside of
the panel.
In some instances, the end wall frame may need
adjusted to square the door opening. Measure the door
opening from corner-to-corner. When the distances
are equal, the opening for the door is square. (Most
adjustment are made by slightly moving the header.)
9. Tighten all header bolts and test the operation of all
latches. Adjust header again if needed to allow the
doors to open and close without binding.
10. Prepare and install the polycarbonate door panels.
