Glazing: side panels.
• Use stainless steel clips J4-2 and PVC profiles J3 and proceed as indicated
in the general glazing instructions.
• Once in place, secure with ‘W’ glazing clips G4 as shown, four ‘W’
clips to each side.
• Repeat for the other side panels.
Glazing: Lower end panels, back and front:
• The bottom edge of these panels is glazed in the same as the side panels,
using stainless steel clips J4-2 and PVC profiles J3.
• The top edges of the panels have no glazing Z clips and use the ‘H’ PVC profile J2-1. (The top
panels in the end section then fit into the top of these ‘H’ profiles).
• Once in place, secure with ‘W’ clips G4, four clips to each panel side.
Glazing: upper panels on greenhouse back and front.
• No glazing Z clips are used.
• The top edges have ‘U’ profile PVC covers as below.
• Front apex panel: J3-2
• Back centre panel: J3-2
• Corner panels back and front: J3-4
• The bottom edges fit into the ‘H’ channel on the lower panels.
• Once in place, secure panels with ‘W’ clips G4, two per each panel side.
Glazing: roof.
• The panel top edges have no Z clips or PVC covers: they slide under
the ridge greenhouse flange.
• The bottom edge of these uses stainless steel clips J4-1 and PVC
profiles J3-1.
• Where a vent is fitted, a short panel is used below the vent opening
(J1-2) and is secured in the same way.
• Once in place, secure with ‘W’ clips G4, four clips to each panel side.
Glazing: vent.
• This section is glazed prior to installation: see greenhouse erection instructions.

clip J4-3 and PVC profile J3-1

NOTE: in very exposed areas extra ‘W’ clips are recommended: these can
be purchased from most greenhouse retailers and are part of the
Gardman Handy Pack range. In extreme conditions ‘Sealoflex’ or other
clear silicon mastic can be applied to the glazing bead during the glazing
process.
