EcoGrow Assembly Instructions

Introduction

Congratulations on purchasing an EcoGrow. We are certain that it will give you many happy years of pleasure in 

your garden.
EcoGrow has been designed to be as easy to put together as it is beautiful to look at. Most of the work can be 

done by a single person. Only attaching the roof requires the help of a family member or neighbor for a short 

while.
Easy assembly methods eliminate the need 

for tools or special expertise.

1

Connect the specified parts.

2

Match the holes in the profiles and the 

connectors. Place a pin on the pin tool 

and push the pin through the lined-up 

holes to lock the parts in place. Many 

connections require pins on both sides.

Note: 

Extra pins are included.

3

If you wish to disassemble the parts at 

any time, remove the pins using the pin 

tool. Place the end into the exposed hole 

and lever the pin out.

4

If a hole in the connector is missing, drill 

a hole with a 6 mm (¼") drill bit through 

the assembled profile and then insert the 

pin.

5

In extremely rare cases connectors will 

not slip into some round or oval profiles. 

In this case place the affected part into 10 cm (4”) of boiling water for 15 seconds before connecting.
