... the observatory people
Important:
If you have ordered an impregnation, it is oil-based, so the top coat should also be
oil-based.
GreenLine Roll Observatories are now STANDARD with SLIDING DOORS, if
you want a hinged door please order specifically.
Please note:
10 planks are stacked on top of each other on the back.
First there is a starter board, then 9 wall boards with rounded heads on both sides.
- The last one has a flat top. The side walls each consist of 13 planks (including
starter). They differ from the rear wall in that only one end of the plank is rounded.
If you make sure that the holes in the boards always point towards each other
during installation, it will be easier for you to install the vertical rails from the back
wall later.
There are two support beams with holes going through just before the notches
(holes larger on the outside than inside). This is plank number 11.
You have a total of four guide rails: those pointing backwards, each with a built-in
pulley.
If you have ordered manual operation of the roof and shutters, two additional
rollers are installed at the end of the rear guide rail to accommodate a set of
counterweights.
(
Tip
: place a wooden board on the base frame, put the weight on it and attach it.)
After installing the weights, the two plywood panels are screwed on. They cover the
weights.
The best way to secure the roof and shutters is to get some window hooks or lock
the foils at your local hardware store to secure the shutter.
Storm protection / severe weather kit:
We offer an optional wind protection kit. Either pre-installed, or as a quick DIY
upgrade.
