END WALL INSTALLATION (continued)
4. Secure base tube between end rafter ground posts
using angle brackets and Tek screws.
5. On base tube surface facing inside the greenhouse,
install a short Tek screw at each joint and then locate
and mark center of base tube.
6. Consult End Frame diagram (Quick Start section) and
mark rough opening for width of double door assembly.
7. Place five (5) band clamps on end rafter above door
as shown below.
DO NOT TIGHTEN BOLTS AT THIS
TIME.
8. Select tubing for the two vertical frame supports for the
sides of the double door.
Each support
includes:
• Square tubing (#102897 swaged end): For the
longer vertical frame members, shorter sections of
tube may need to be cut and added.
• One (1) square-to-round tube bracket (#104074)
9. Measure distance
between top of base tube and
band clamp (Step 7)
to determine length of first frame
member of door frame.
10. Choose one square tube (#102897), insert swaged
end of tube into plain end of another tube. Tap with a
hammer to properly seat tubes at joint.
11. On this assembled frame member, mark length
determined in Step 9 (above) and
subtract amount
needed to account for square-to-round tube connect
bracket
, which is attached to top of frame tube. See
diagram that follows.
12. Select a square-to-round tube connect bracket and
attach bracket to one end of door jamb. Use a 5/16"
drill bit to drill a hole through tube and attach bracket
using a nut and carriage bolt
(FAH320B & FALB32B)
.
13. Repeat steps to construct remaining vertical frame
member for door.
14. With square-to-round tube connect bracket attached
to top of each vertical door frame tube, use bolt in
band clamp to attach bracket to band clamp. DO NOT
TIGHTEN AT THIS TIME.
NOTE:
Position bolt heads for each clamp to the
outside (or front/back) of greenhouse. At this point,
two vertical door frame members should be loosely
attached to end rafter.
The bracket
shown in this
diagram can
be installed
with either its
short section
(as shown) or
the long section
attached to the
ground post.
