- Vinyl glue starts to set within minutes so once you start applying glue continue with assembly in a timely manner.
General Information:
- Read instructions carefully before beginning assembly. Test fit all pieces before applying any glue. The bond is permanent so parts can’t be adjusted or rearranged once the glue has cured.
- Allow the glue to fully cure before filling the window box with any planting materials or water.
- Do not overload the window boxes. Lightweight fillers and potting mixes are recommended.
- The Yorkshire window boxes are suitable for flowers, herbs, vegetables, and small plants.
- To clean the product use standard house hold cleaners
- The molded vinyl construction is designed to withstand cold temperatures but you may wish to winter store the planter in a shed or garage to offer the best protection from extreme cold.
- Wall mount brackets include screws for general mounting applications; however when installing on brick and concrete, masonry screws or anchors are required.
In the event of missing or defective parts, please email customerservice@gomayne.com or call our customer service department toll free at 866-363-8834 (available Monday through Friday, 8am-5pm EST).
Identify the front and back panel from the part list. Run a continuous bead of
glue along the groove on each panel. Be generous to ensure each groove has
plenty of adhesive to create a good seal.
(Note: The vinyl glue starts to set within minutes so once you apply the
glue continue with the assembly in a timely manner.
It may take several hours for the glue to fully cure. Please refer to the glue
instructions for complete details.) 
Position all 3 panels as shown above ensuring the bottom panel has the
perforated holes facing up. A tongue and groove design provides easy alignment
between the panels. Squeeze the parts together and check for a tight fit
throughout the length of the panels. For best results clamp the panels
together while the glue cures.
(Tip: Place cardboard on the floor to avoid any scratches during
assembly) 
Identify the right and left end caps from the part list. Starting with only
the Left End Cap, run a continuous bead of glue along the internal walls of
the cap. Be generous with the glue to ensure a strong seal is formed between
the panels and end cap. 
Stand the 3 panels on one end as shown on the left. Align the end cap at an
angle and start by inserting the panels into the bottom portion of the end
cap. You may need to wiggle the cap to get the panels to fit inside the
guides. Work your way down by aligning the top portion of the panels with the
end cap and rotate the cap downward as indicated by the arrows below. Once in
place press firmly to ensure the cap is properly seated.
REPEAT Steps 3 & 4 for the Right End Cap. 
Wall mount brackets should be installed onto a sturdy surface. Strapping is
recommended for installations on siding. The top of the brackets should all be
level and installed 3 inches below the window sill or ledge. This provides
clearance for mounting the window box on the brackets. Wall mount brackets
should be spaced no more than 18 inches apart. For more support we’ve included
extra brackets with our longer window boxes sizes (4ft through 8ft) to allow
for spacing of approximately 14 inches apart.
To install the optional decorative brackets align the holes with the wall
mount brackets (decorative brackets are sold separately). Secure using the two
screws provided with the decorative brackets. The molded vinyl brackets are
decorative only so there is no need to over tighten the screws.
Place the window box directly over the wall mount brackets and slide straight
down. The top of the brackets should slide into the recessed groove on the
back panel. The front part of bracket should fit inside the channel running
down the center of the bottom panel. Gently pull on the window box to make
sure the brackets are seated properly. 
General Planting Recommendations:
To maximize the efficiency of the sub-irrigation system and encourage healthy plant growth we recommend the following:
- Add a layer of lightweight filler to the bottom of the planter.
- Top up the planter with a potting mix (not garden soil) containing peat moss, perlite or vermiculite. Many gardeners have found “soil-less” potting mixes promote stronger root growth.
- Start planting and enjoy!
Sub-Irrigation System
The Yorkshire window’ box includes a trough design creating a sub-irrigation
water reservoir at the bottom of the planter. Capil- lary action allows water
in the res- ervoir to soak upward keeping the soil and plant roots moist. To
avoid oversaturation overflow holes are drilled in the bottom panel allowing
excess water to drain out from the bottom of the planter. Regular watering is
required for the first few weeks giving the root system time to develop. Once
the roots have grown down to the troughs the plants will be able to pull
moisture from the reservoir creating a self watering effect.
