DIEPHAUS 8300 Greenhouse

DIEPHAUS-8300-Greenhouse-product Note : The stones delivered to assemble the Cassandra wall are produced to create a natural look. As a result no two stones are identical. In order to compensate for the differences in height that cannot be avoided during production, bricks of approximately the same height should be assembled beforehand for each row

Wall Assembly

  1. Prepare a strip foundation for the stone wall. This can be constructed from compacted gravel or poured from concrete. It is important that it is level and large enough for the stones, see dimensions on plan. Please leave the front
    area free of foundation so that the door runner stones can be positioned and aligned after the wall is assembled.

  2. Following the plan, arrange the stones in rows as shown to avoid any cross joints. Rows 1, 2 and 3 should simply be placed one on top of the other.

  3. At the end of each row the final stone must be broken to the correct size.

  4. a. Measure the remaining space to achieve the required dimensions.

  5. b. Mark the stone on all sides.

  6. c. Using a hammer and stone chisel start on 1 side and solidly hammer along the line.

  7. d. Turn the stone 90° and continue to solidly hammer along the line.

  8. e. Continue to turn the stone 90° and hammer until it breaks.

  9. The 4th and final row should be levelled and fixed in place using supplied glue

Assembly – Door runner stones

  1. The door runner stones (Türlauf) can be assembled upright or flat.
  2. Prepare a strip foundation at the necessary depth and position the door runner stones so that the total length is 2550 mm. The top edge of the door runner stones must be 500mm below the top edge of the wall and they should be in contact with the wall stones.
  3. Fix the door runner stones with mortar and fill around with earth.
