•
The Eden Model shown has the base included if you have alternative options chosen then refer to page 36.
All 6 series have the same assembly procedures, variations are in
the length, and the number of side & roof bars.
PLEASE READ RIGHT THROUGH BEFORE ASSEMBLY. SOME PRELOADING OF BOLTS IS REQUIRED
Note:
All bolts are standard 10mm
size.
Do not fully tighten all bolts
until the glasshouse has been
glazed. This is to allow for
movement of the frame if the
base is not completely level or
square.

You are now embarking on your journey to build your Eden
glasshouse! If the ride gets rough, don’t hesitate to contact us at

separately and then join them together afterwards. Please start by
opening the box marked ‘middle’.
Good luck!
