7 SLAT STAGING ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
7-Slat - 25” · 63.5cm Deep Shelf
May be fixed to aluminium greenhouse glazing bars or
direct to a wall.
Greenhouse Fixing
Using the nut groove in aluminium glazing bars at
approx. 2ft (60cm) centres. Use the appropriate cleat as
indicated.
ONE
Fix the wall cleats using
cropped-head bolts
(ensuring that they are
correctly fully engaged in
the nut groove) or using
wall plugs and screws as
appropriate. Ensure
adjacent brackets are
level.
TWO
Fix the horizontal
brackets ensuring
the flanges close off
the ends of the
slats. Secure the top
end of the tubular
brace to the single
hole near the end
of the bracket.
Position and fix the
lower end of the
brace so that the
bracket is level.
Fixing into greenhouse
corners where there is no
nut groove
The glass must be removed
prior to drilling 7mm holes
in the glazing bar to accept
the offset cleat and tubular
brace. This will provide
clearance for typical
greenhouse bracing. In rare
cases it may be necessary
to shorten the length of the slats using a hacksaw.
THREE
Secure slats to
the horizontal
brackets as
shown. The
bolt heads
slot into the
central groove
in the
underside of
each slat.
Feed in extra
bolts, one for
each end and one for the centre.
FOUR
The central
horizontal bracket is
mounted with flat
top on to which the
slats are fixed. The
second of each pair
of holes is only used
for joining slats (see
below). Once all the
slats have been
assembled, check for squareness and then securely
tighten all nuts with a 10mm spanner or nut driver.
Joining two
sections of staging
The offset cleat at
the join has to be
replaced with small
intermediate cleat.
The horizontal
bracket is then
turned over so that
the flat top
supports the end of
the two sets of slats. Secure each slat with a bolt.
Exploded View

head must be turned to
engage before tightening.
