HELPFUL HINTS

Please do take your time and be sure to read all instructions carefully before assembling.

Consider purchasing the Elite Construction pack to help with the installation –contact dealer

for details.

Do not assemble frame in high winds.

The greenhouse frame should be anchored to a permanent foundation. This will not only help

secure it against powerful winds but will help prevent breakage of the glass caused by the

freezing and thawing process of the earth.

When building your own brick/concrete foundations ensure that they are level and square oth-

erwise your frame will not be correct and the glass will not fit.

Be sure all four corners of the constructed greenhouse are square before installing glass, and

do not install the glass until the greenhouse is on a permanent foundation.

Do not place your greenhouse in vulnerable locations such as under trees, playing areas, etc.

Children should not play near glass greenhouses.

REMEMBER: glass is fragile, handle with care!

Protective eye glasses should be worn.

Gloves should be worn.

If your greenhouse is a powder coated one there are a few 1/8”(3mm) holes in the end of the

bars. These are jig holes for the process and have no bearing on construction. (Key Point).

When Powder Coated, the sub-frame assembly packages may slightly differ from the standard

alloy finish.

Powder coated packages are wrapped in polythene tubing –please be careful when opening

e.g. Do not run a knife down the sides as you can scratch the paintwork.

WHEN CONSTRUCTING A POWDER COATED MODEL PLEASE TAKE CARE

NOT TO DAMAGE THE FINISH BY WORKING ON CONCRETE OR PATIOS.

N.B. This plan covers the entire Strata range. The only difference between a 6ft long and

an 8ft long for example are a few extra pieces of alloy, glass, nuts and bolts etc. The con-

struction of the sub-frame assemblies is the same but for the purposes of this booklet we

have used the 8 x 6 model as the benchmark. Therefore only one plan is needed.

We reserve the right to alter and improve our products.

SIDE FRAME ASSEMBLY

When you come to the greenhouse itself start by assembling the side frames first.

The base is integrated with the cill for each side of the greenhouse, and is assembled onto each sub-

assembly rather than separately laid out.

1. Lay out the pieces on the ground as though you were standing

inside the house, i.e. with the gutter and built in base facing

downwards, and the bolt channels of the glazing bar(s) upwards.

(Key Point). Slide the glazing beading into the V grooves of

the glazing bars.

2. Slide a bolt into each end of each glazing bar. (If you have

bought a shelf to go in your greenhouse and you intend to fit it on a side wall, use the ½”

headed bolts provided with the shelf fittings- these can be inserted later). For the 8’model,

slide 1 extra bolt into the middle glazing bar of each side. For 10’models, slide an extra bolt

into the 2nd and 3rd glazing bar (and also the 4th bar for 12’long models). These will enable the

fitting of a cantilever brace during general assembly later in the plan, page 21 paragraph 10.

3. Fix the combined eaves/gutter bar to the glazing bar(s) by pushing the bolts through the holes

in the combined eaves/gutter bar, and securing with a nut. You do not need to tighten the nuts

too much at this stage, but they need to be tight enough to stop the bolts slipping out of the

glazing bar.

4. Fix the built in base to the middle glazing bar by pushing the bolt through the hole in the built

in base unit and tightening.

5. Correctly position the built in base on the outer most glazing bars by pushing the bolts

through the holes in the built in base, but do not put the nuts on yet.

6. Place the side braces over these bolts so that they point outwards towards the ends of eaves

bar. They must be so arranged that the flat bit of the angle in each case faces towards the mid-

dle of the house (i.e. the elongated slit will be by the eaves in one case and by the built in base

in the other). (Key Point).

7. Put nuts on bottom bolts and lightly tighten.

8. Do the same with the other side frame assembly.

9. Make sure that the glazing bars reach both the built in base and the combined eaves/gutter bar

in each case. Tighten all nuts.

10. If you intend to fit any Elite accessories (louvres, shelf, staging) they will be packed with ½

head bolts to enable them to be retro fitted. You do not need to pre insert any bolts for these

accessories.

11. If you are fitting your greenhouse onto hard standing (flags, concrete etc.), then insert bolts

into the bolt channel of the built in base (generally 1 every 2’). These will be used to anchor

the greenhouse to the floor during general assembly.

REAR END ASSEMBLY

Components

1 Built in base “marked rear end”

2 Glazing bars

2 Roof corner bars (marked “R”at the apex)

2 Side corner bars

2 Diagonal angles

1 Horizontal angle

From the main bag of fittings you will require the nuts and bolts. You will also require 2 eave gus-

set plates and 1 ridge gusset plate. These are packed with the casement stay and are separate from

the main bag of fittings.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Lay out the frame as though you were standing on the inside i.e. with the bolt slots uppermost.

Roof corners marked “R”at the apex, opposite each other, facing downwards (i.e. “R”on out-

side). Roof corner bars are mitred at both ends where as side

corner bars are mitred at one end only (Key Point). The bolt

slot is on the inside and faces inwards during initial construc-

tion. If you have a powder coated greenhouse there is no letter

“R”on the corner bar. You must ensure that the “middle”hole

is nearer to the ridge gusset plate than the eave gusset plate

(Key Point). Slide the glazing beading into the V groove of

the glazing bar and the corner bars. (Do not put beading

into the middle V slot of the corner bar).

2. Slide two bolts into the bolt channels of each corner bar (1 each end). These will later be used

in the general assembly for fixing the ridge, eave and built in base to the ends. Now secure the

ridge gusset plate and eaves gusset plates by inserting bolts through the ‘plates’and into the

holes punched in the flange of the corner bar, at the apex and eave.

3. Attach the built in base to the side corner bars by inserting a bolt through the hole in the

flange of the corner bar and into the slot in the built in base. (Make sure bolt channel of the

built-in-base section is facing upwards). (Key Point).

4. Attach the vertical glazing bars to the built in base by inserting a bolt into the bolt channel of

the glazing bars and locating it with the punched holes in the built in base. Before securing the

nuts attach the diagonal angle to the same bolt as illustrated. The top of the diagonal angle

now attaches to the hole in the side corner bar approx. 300mm from the top of the bar.

5. Slide two bolts into the bolt channel at the top of the two vertical glazing bars and secure the

second one to the roof corner bars by inserting the bolt through the punched hole in the flange.

6. You can now attach the horizontal angle to the top bolt of the gusset plate and to the other

bolts in the glazing bars you inserted in 5, above.

8. Check that all angles between the built in base and the vertical members are at right angles and

that the glazing bars are right into the built in base at the bottom. (Key Point).

9. Tighten all nuts.

10. Slide a bolt into the bolt slot in the built in base section, one at each end. The corner bracket/

angle base leg is approx. 400mm long and has 6 holes (4 at 1 end and 2 at the other). Attach

the corner bracket/angle base leg so that it is pointing downwards by using the end of the

bracket that has 2 holes (not 4) to the bolt channel of the base section. If you are fitting your

greenhouse onto soft ground, then do not fit the corner bracket/angle base leg yet. If you are

on a patio, you will need to cut the bracket off level with the bottom of the built in base and

slide extra bolts into the bolt channel to be attached to the angle brackets (generally 1 every

2’). If you are on soil, the corner bracket/angle base leg will go into the ground during general

assembly.

N.B. Roof Corner Bars are marked “R”on the outside, which indicates that they meet at the ridge.

They are also mitred at both ends.

If you have a powder coated greenhouse there is no letter “R”on the corner bar. You must ensure

that the “middle”hole is nearer to the ridge plate than the eaves plate. (Key Point).
