Thank you for purchasing your new greenhouse. We recommend you familiarise yourself with the instructions and read all safety information
before you commence assembly.
These instructions are divided into sections; B-base, partlists,1-sides, 2-front gable, 3-rear, 4-joining the four sides together, 5-roof, 6-vent, 7-door,
8-glazing(8a toughened glass, 8b horticultural glass, 8c polycarbonate glazing when available), 9-vent attachment, 10-door attachment, 11 anchoring
down, back cover-packing list. If you need to contact us for assistance please refer to the relevant section/s.
Safety Warning
Glass and aluminium can potentially cause injury. Please ensure you wear protective goggles, gloves, headgear and suitable footwear when
assembling and glazing the building.
Please remember that glass is fragile and should be handled with extreme care. Always clear up and dispose of any breakages immediately.
Do not assemble the greenhouse in high winds.
For safety reasons and ease of assembly, we recommend that this greenhouse is assembled by a minimum of two people.
Please clear all lying snow from the greenhouse roof as it can cause the roof to buckle or collapse.
Site Preparation
When selecting a site for your greenhouse, it is vital that you choose as flat and level an area as possible.
A concrete or slabbed base will provide the most solid foundation for your greenhouse.
IMPORTANT: Do not fix your building down until the building is fully assembled, including glazing.
Avoid placing your greenhouse under trees or in other vulnerable locations.
To minimise the risk of wind damage, try to select as sheltered a site as possible, e.g. beside a hedgerow or garden fence.
Additional Considerations
Please bear in mind that assembling your greenhouse can be time consuming. You may need to spread the construction over two or more
days. We recommend that you avoid leaving the building partially glazed. If you ever have to leave your greenhouse half assembled and not
anchored down, weigh it down with slabs or bags of sand to stop the wind moving it.
You will find it helpful to prepare a large, clean and clear area in which to work in. A garage floor or flat lawn area is ideal.
If you have arranged for someone to install your greenhouse for you, please check that all components are included. Most parts are numbered
and can be identified by a stamp or removable label. Alternatively, the components can be identified by lengths detailed in the packing list (see
diagram below).
Anchoring down your greenhouse should be the final stage of construction (including glazing).
Once installed your greenhouse requires little maintenance, but to maintain the smooth running of your door(s) WD40 or similar can be applied
to the door wheels and lower door guides.
Guarantee
Your new greenhouse is guaranteed for 10 years against faulty manufacture of the framework. This does not include glazing, moving parts,
accidental damage or wind damage.

On the 2’ long model the sides have no
vertical side bar ‘47’. Because of this
the sides have little substance and you
will find it easier to skip this section ‘1’
until you have built the front (section 2)
and rear (section 3). The sides can then
be built in situ during section ‘4’ where
the gutters ‘91’ and cills ‘78’ will allow
the front and rear to connect.

If you have a metal base and you live in a windy
location then you should drill and fix the frame to
the base using 10mm nuts and bolts. Drill centrally
between two vertical glazing bars for neatness (it is
not essential to drill every section). Make sure the
bolt head does NOT interfere with the line of the
glass. Cills should be drilled 18mm from the inside
vertical face to avoid the front glass face. Do NOT
anchor the structure to the ground until the end!

Glazing tips for sections 7 & 8:
The foam (see left) goes longitudinally in three
sections on each door stile and all over the
greenhouse frame, see overleaf, including the
roof corner bars. It never goes horizontally, the
glass just sits directly onto the aluminium cills in
the sides.
Remove the white paper on the foam before it
gets wet as it is difficult to remove, i.e. it comes
off in small pieces.
Clips (see overleaf) go roughly 1
every 305mm (1’) e.g. 610 x 610
pane you would have 2 per side.

The adhesive foam
(SYFOAM) goes longitu-
dinally over the green-
house frame, see exam-
ples to the right. It never
goes horizontally, the
glass just sits directly
onto the aluminium cills in
the sides.
Remove the white paper
on the foam before it gets
wet as it is difficult to re-
move, i.e. it comes off in
small pieces.
