Do the layout

You first need to prepare the site for polycarbonate greenhouses. It should be fairly smooth, not having tilt. Look at the size of your purchase, make the markup on the site.

If you grow cucumbers, tomatoes in a greenhouse made of polycarbonate or other vegetables from spring to fall, keep her in length from North to South. If you are planning a distillation of greens and other crops in the winter time, it is better to put a greenhouse in length from West to East.

Base

Now you should determine the Foundation. If the kit includes piles, install them on the perimeter in the ground. If not, you can pour a concrete low-depth foundations or lay the perimeter bricks, and on this basis to place the timber section 100 x 150 mm, to knock it out of the box, connecting parts with screws, steel corners.

Do not forget to impregnate this wooden structure from all sides with antiseptic. Dimensions polycarbonate greenhouses can be different. Usually its 2-3 width, length 2-6 meters.

Assembly profile

Start to assemble a greenhouse with the ends. Take a sheet of polycarbonate corresponding value. Protective film is pasted on the face. Remove it, put the sheet on the first side. Attach the polycarbonate to the base with roofing screws. Then, carefully, slowly cut the polycarbonate for the extreme point of the end of a sharp hobby knife with a retractable blade. Doors, vents at this stage do not cut through. In the same way make the second end.

Set the details of the profile of the greenhouse to the Foundation. If you are using a pile, insert the horizontal part of the profile in the grooves of the piles. If you put it on the base of the rail, attach with screws with a length of 80-90 mm and the washers to the outer side of the base profile of the greenhouse.

Stepping back from the edge of the beam 2 cm, attach the first part of the base. Then, insert it in her butt a T-shaped adapter, attach to it the following detail of the bottom of the greenhouse. When it will be fixed in the top hole of the T-shaped adapter insert the arc greenhouse.

Looking up, you will see holes in them. They need to make the horizontal profile and to seal it with arcs by bolts and nuts. While only loosely tighten them. Attach to the General construction side edges with polycarbonate.

Fittings, polycarbonate

Hook for doors, vents. Now you need to cut with a utility knife small rectangles in place of loops to cut holes between the window, the door that they will open well.

Now you can attach the polycarbonate sheets. The first lay immediately after the end of it perpendicular to the length of the greenhouse. Secure it with screws, after putting the galvanized tape. Then similarly attach the second sheet around the opposite end of the greenhouse. Attach them first to the right and left sides of the building, past you lay a Central leaf. Then the greenhouse is made of polycarbonate assembled and ready for use.
