Color Coding

READ THIS BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Purchased greenhouse and all accessories & systems require a specific installation sequence. All components have

been separated into different categories based on common grouping and/or the chronology of installation. Each

category has been color coded. All parts within any given color category will be labeled accordingly, and each color

category will have its own respective instruction manual.

The following illustrates a highly recommended order in which all components should be installed.

IMPORTANT: There are some procedures that can occur simultaneously, depending on available assistants and

equipment, but there are some procedures that MUST be done in chronological order. Before you begin, review

below step recommendation and all technical documents to better understand overall building kit design.

Near the beginning of each color-coded instruction guide, you will find information to lead you through the installation

and assembly steps. This information identifies at what point during the assembly the respective components are

installed or attached to the main building frame.

Since we cannot anticipate changes made by the customer/contractor, all instructions assume the use of accessories

purchased from us to be used on the building the accessory was designed for. Each instruction guide presents the

basic steps to install the color-coded components.

When in doubt, consult the services of a qualified contractor experienced with the assembly of similar structures.

All components that are color coded ORANGE represent the end wall framing of the

greenhouse.

***Color coded components that MUST be installed before installing ORANGE:

If above color-coded components have not yet been installed, put this manual down

and consult those manuals to install those components before returning to this

manual.

If above color coded components have been installed, gather all components that

have been color coded with an ORANGE label or paint splotch, and continue on the

next page with the end wall framing installation.

ATTENTION: Recommended installation order is not critically definitive. Depending

on personal preference and/or availability of assistants and equipment, there are

some procedures that can occur before or simultaneously with this procedure.

READ THIS DOCUMENT BEFORE YOU BEGIN TO

ASSEMBLE THE END FRAMING.

Thank you for purchasing a Series 500 greenhouse kit

with a black-out system. When properly assembled and

maintained, this product will provide years of reliable

service. These instructions include helpful hints and

important information needed to safely assemble and

properly maintain the structure. Please read these

instructions before you begin.

If you have any questions during the assembly, contact

Customer Service for assistance.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Wear eye, hand, and head protection.

• Use a portable GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit

Interrupter) when working with power tools and cords.

• Do not climb on the shelter or framing during or after

construction.

• Do not occupy the shelter during high winds,

tornadoes, or hurricanes.

• Provide adequate ventilation if the structure is

enclosed.

• Do not store hazardous materials in the shelter.

• Provide proper ingress and egress to prevent

entrapment.

Important Information

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Proper care and maintenance of your end frame is

important. Check the following items periodically:

• Inspect all components regularly and frequently.

• Check connections and all fasteners to verify that they

remain tight and in good repair.

• Do not climb or stand on the shelter or end frame.

• Remove debris and objects that may accumulate on

the shelter. Use tools that will not damage the cover

(if equipped) when removing debris.

• Remove snow to prevent excess accumulation. Use

tools that will not damage the cover (if equipped)

when removing snow. Never allow snow to

accumulate on the cover or along the sides and end

panels after removing the snow from the main cover.

• Replace all worn or damaged parts promptly.

END FRAMING: READ THIS BEFORE YOU BEGIN

After assembling the main frame of the building, attach

the steel end frame.

ATTENTION: The customer/contractor is responsible

for installing the end framing as needed to accept the

installation of doors. Consult a qualified contractor if

needed to assist in the door installation. Additional

purchase required for doors.

CUSTOMER-SUPPLIED MATERIALS

End wall columns with base plates are typically anchored

to concrete. Concrete is not supplied and can be pur-

chased locally. Additionally, customer is responsible for

suppling fasteners to secure base plates to the concrete

slab or pier.

WARNING: Individuals assembling this end frame

are responsible for designing and furnishing all

temporary bracing, shoring and support needed

during assembly. For safety reasons, those who are

not familiar with recognized construction methods

and techniques must seek the help of a qualified

contractor.

ASSEMBLE & INSTALL FRONT END WALL COLUMNS

Consult the end frame diagrams near the back of these instructions before you begin. Verify the drawing is for the

FRONT end wall, or the wall with the door and two fan openings. Assistance is required to assemble the end frames.

The following steps describe one way to assemble and set the vertical supports. Instructions shown are for both

base plates and ground posts. Follow the applicable instructions for materials included in purchased shelter. See

attachment details on the following page.

GROUND POSTS

1. Consult the end frame layout diagrams and mark the

positions of the vertical supports on the site.

2. Dig an 8"-10" diameter hole at the locations found in

previous step to a depth that is below the geographic

frost line. (Minimum depth is 24".)

3. Attach the tops of the end wall columns to the

underside of the rafter using QH1330 brackets and

Tek screws. Adjust as needed to position and plumb.

4. After the vertical supports are in position, plumb,

and the correct distances apart, secure the vertical

supports in the ground holes with customer-supplied

concrete. Concrete should remain at least 2"-4"

below the finished grade level so that it does not

interfere with construction and the installation of other

end frame components, doors, or end cladding.

BASE PLATES

1. Consult the end frame layout diagrams and mark the

positions of the vertical supports on the site.

2. Consult "Base Plate Installation" pages in the RED

instruction manual to attach base plates using

customer-supplied fasteners.

3. Assemble the end wall columns as shown in the

diagrams.

4. Attach the tops of the end wall columns to the

underside of the rafter using QH1330 brackets and

Tek screws. Adjust as needed to position and plumb.

5. After the vertical supports are in position, plumb,

and the correct distances apart, secure the vertical

supports to the base plates using 1/2" x 3-1/2" bolts

(GS0046), 1/2" nuts (106977), and 1/2" washers

(106953). See details on following page.
