and remaining 4 to the left hole.

ZZZ-184.41218MR.0312-21.GP.EN.doc WEB VERSION 14
Step 1:
Before starting to assemble, please decide where you would like to position the door panels.
1. Stand up two Regular Frames (A) and affix the panels together at an angle by sliding
two connecting Pieces (I, J) from top to bottom. All Frames should be placed such that
screening face out of the unit.
2. To assemble door frame, firstly assemble 2 vertical bars (Yy) with 2 horizontal bars
(Zz). Make sure the shape of the aluminum matches the other parts to be joined. With
a rubber mallet get them closed at the corners. Make sure to not damage the
aluminum parts. Make a small pilot hole if necessary, under 1/8”and use screws (Z) to
secure 4 corners manually, screwing all screws into frame 4 holes.
3. After assembling door frame, attach to frames (B) on either side, by sliding connecting
piece (E) between the frame and the door frame.
4. When assembling angled panels (A, B), you should put the two panels at 135-degree
angle then use the angled connecting pieces (I) and (J) to affix the panels together.
5. Door frame step down is on the inside of the unit.
Note:
1. When sliding the part I, J and E into the frames shake the frames for it too slide.
Do not apply excess force. Make sure the edges are clean from any extra paint if
necessary, use a fine file.
2. Make sure the floor is level if not use Leveling Shims.

ZZZ-184.41218MR.0312-21.GP.EN.doc WEB VERSION 16
Step 3:
1. Slide Top Door Rail (F) into wheels of Sliding Door (C).
2. Slide Lower Door Rail (G) into the plastic guide of the Sliding Door (C).
3. Use Bolts (Bb) to affix the Plastic Stoppers (H) one on each end of Top Door Rail (F).
4. Using a Screw (Oo) affix the upper door rail End Caps (Nn) one on each end of Top Door
Rail (F).
5. Similarly follow the above step to assemble the Sliding Door (D).

ZZZ-184.41218MR.0312-21.GP.EN.doc WEB VERSION 17
Step 4:
Please note the sliding door is suggested to be installed from the inside of the solarium.
1. Place a Bolt (Ww) and Washer (Gg) through the Top of Sliding Door Frame (C) and Top Door
Rail (F), and place a Female Bolt (Cc-2) from the other side. Once all are inserted, tighten them
all securely.
2. Secure the Bottom Door Rail (G), using a Bolt (Cc) with a Washer (Gg).
3. Similarly follow the above step for Sliding Door (D) with Top Door Rail (F1) and Bottom Door
Rail (G1).

ZZZ-184.41218MR.0312-21.GP.EN.doc WEB VERSION 18
Step 5:
1. Attach roof rafters (L, Xx) to the Central Hub(N) using bolt (Bb).
2. Use screws (Z) to affix the Rafters (L) onto the top of panels going through the Metal Piece
(Z2) attached to the Rafter (L).
3. Use Bolts (Bb) to affix Rafter (Xx) over the Horizontal Bar For Door Frame (Zz) at the top of
Door opening as shown below.
Note:
1. Rafters must be affixed where panels connect to each other.
2. The Central Hub is a heavy part so it requires support while assembling.

ZZZ-184.41218MR.0312-21.GP.EN.doc WEB VERSION 19
Step 6:
1. Follow the same procedure of Rafter (L) to assemble roof Rafters (K) onto the remaining
panels.
Note:
1. Rafters must be affixed where panels connect to each other.
2. Affix the Rafter (K) such that, the extra hole on the bracket (Z1) are facing each
other as shown below.
3. Do not tighten the bolts right away as you may have to adjust the angle when
inserting the roof panels.

ZZZ-184.41218MR.0312-21.GP.EN.doc WEB VERSION 20
Step 7:
1. Now secure the sides of the roof with Finishing Bar (S, U, Ss and U1) with Bolts (Bb) and
Brackets (R).
2. Place roof Finishing Bars (S, U, Ss and U1) on the right of the Roof Finishing Bar (S, U and
U1) and align the holes in each bar one on top of the other. Place End Caps (R) under the
aligned holes and secure with Bolts (Bb).
3. Repeat process with all Finishing Bars as illustrated.
4. In order to finish the installation of the last Finishing Bar (S, Ss, U, U1) you have to unscrew
the first screw (Bb) at your starting point and place an end cap (R) then re-install the screw
(Bb).
