regularly to avoid a build-up of debris.
0. FOUNDATION
Important! The foundation must be exactly
right angular and level. To achieve this you will
require a spirit level and a right angle.
Note - If the distance between the two
opposite corners is the same then the
foundation is right angular.
For the erection of this greenhouse we
suggest a solid foundation constructed from
concrete, brickwork or stonework.
If you have no experience with the
construction of such a foundation please
consult a company specialising in this work.
Materials and tools for the preparation of the
suggested foundation are not provided.
The suggested foundation allows the door to
be assembled in the front of the greenhouse.
The door can also be assembled on any other
side if required. Please then prepare the
210mm wide foundation on this side using
length C or D as reference.
Foundations must extend down below the frost
level.
Diagrams in a single frame show the view
from inside the greenhouse. Those
enclosed in a double frame show the view
from outside the greenhouse.
