FINAL FINISHING
Your greenhouse is now basically complete and
requires a few finishing touches.
82.Identify moulded door track covers and ridge finial
(No. 52 & 53, ID Chart). Secure in position by pushing
home plastic bosses into appropriate location points.
83.Locate gutter outlet stubs (No. 54, ID Chart) and
having decided on the position for your rain water
pipes, fit these at the down pipe end. Now fit the
blanking grommets (No. 55, ID Chart) at the opposite
end. Then fit the stop ends (No. 56, ID Chart)
positioning the rounded corners into the bottom
curved corners of the gutter.
84. Finally identify and fit the angled rainwater pipe outlet
(No. 57, ID Chart) onto the downpipe, then fit opposite
end onto the gutter stub (No. 54, ID Chart). Finish by
drilling a small hole through the capping and using a
No. 8 x 12 screw fix pipe bracket.
85.Finally, when the building is complete, fit roof end
glazing bar closure and apply silicon sealer (as shown
below).
NOTE: If you are not fitting an
extension, please turn to page 14.
EXTENSIONS
If you have been supplied with an extension, your main
building will differ in that the roof end and corner glazing
bars (on the end to which the extension will be fitted)
are replaced with standard side and roof glazing bars
from the extension module kit. These should be fitted
using long bolts throughout. In addition, it will be
necessary to slide additional bolts into each side bar
and roof bars (5 for Rosette and Regal, 4 for Royale, and
3 for Regent) to accommodate a reinforcing channel.
Continue therefore erecting the main building frame,
using the main instructions up to 29. When the main
frame is complete, continue as follows.
NOTE: If you are fitting a partition at the
front between two sections, refer to
the partition section.
86. Identify and fit gutter, base rail and ridge
connecting plates (Nos. 60, 61 & 63, ID Chart).
When fitting extension ridge, gutter and side
cills, the 586mm hole centres at one end of the
component must abutt the main greenhouse.
The glazing bar centres will then be correct at
620mm
