Suggestion
Before you begin - read all these instructions to become familiar with each step of the
assembly process. You might decide that you find it easier to complete the assembly process
in a different sequence. Several sequences are possible. For ex ample, some people may
prefer to build all of the greenhouse frame first and then insert the Glazing Panels, while
others may prefer to interchange these steps. Some may prefer to add the O ptional
Foundation/Base Frame at the very beginning (special L-brackets have been provided for you
if you wish to do so) - see page 8 for Foundation Frame installation options. We recommend
the following Assembly Steps:

III. 1:
Step 1: Door Frame Assembly
Connect the Front-Floor Profile with the Upright Profiles of
the door frame.
Carefully slide/push the door profiles # 1.5 and #1.6
along the channel in the front-floor profile
(See picture on the right).
Put the profile with 8 holes
(which will be used for the hinges)
on the right side. You can use the rubber
mallet to tap the Upright Profiles in order
to slide them along. Distance between
both upright profiles should be about 29.5 inches.
The upright door profiles
will be attached to the Front Floor
Profile (through their holes) using sheet metal screws 3.5 x 13,
once the front glazing panels have been installed.
Important: Slide 1 hexagon bolt (M6 x 16) down each door
profile channel (See Illustration #2 on left). These are for
the
assembly of the Door Frame Cross bars (at the top).

Step 2: Rear Window Frame Assembly:
Repeat everything in Step 1: However this time slide 2
hexagon bolts (M6 x 16) down the channel of each Door
Profile.
These will be used later to attach the Top Crossbar as well
as the Middle Crossbar (which will be under the window).

Step 3: Attach Front Curved Corner Profiles:
Slide both Corner Curved Profiles (#2.1 - with one channel
each) onto the corners of the Front Floor Profile (#1.1) The
ends of each Curved Corner Profile are slightly different on the
top from the bottom. (See small circular picture on left). Note:
Be sure to check that each bottom end is marked with an X .
Step 4: Mounting of the
Cross Bars in the Door
Frames:
Push 2 hexagon bolts (M 6x16)
into each crossbar #1.7 and
#1.9 as shown in Illustration 2
and connect these to the
hexagon bolts in the upright door
profiles with round mounting
plates (with 4 holes)

*too many screws M6x16 are possibly screwed in, it
doesn’ t matter, they can be used elsewhere!
