TOOLS REQUIRED

Screwdriver
Knife
File (smooth)
Needle-nosed pliers

Step ladder (minimum 6′ in height)
Spatula
Power drill
Tube of silicon
Drill bit 5/16″ cement (according to surface)

BEFORE STARTING

Ensure that you have a solid base, such as a concrete or wooden deck, not slanted more than 1” per 8’. Avoid installing units adjacent to trees or a sloped roof, as snow and ice may slide onto the solarium and cause it to collapse. Please don’t destroy boxes until completely assembled.

STEP #1

Decide the position of the door frames before assembly according to where you intend to slide the door. At the front of the solarium, use frame D-3 for the opening of the door and B-3 for the direction of the door when open. Ensure frames A-3 ½ are at the front of the sides. Use E-3 between frame ends and use two (2) K-3 joints for corners. Assemble the door frame separately. Assemble 2 vertical bars (Yy) with 2 horizontal bars (Zz). Make sure the shape of the aluminum matches the other parts to be joined. With a rubber mallet get them closed at the corners. Make sure to not damage the aluminum parts. Use screws (Z) to secure 4 corners manually, screwing all screws into frame 4 predrilled holes. After assembling the door frame, attach to frames (B-3) on either side, by sliding connecting piece(E-3), between the frame and the door frame.

NOTE: When placing the door frame opening, make sure the inserts on the frame are on the inside and on the upper half of the frame of the solarium because the door will be set on the inside due to clearance.
NOTE: When sliding the connectors, shake the frame so that they will slide easily. Do not use tools to force. If needed, clean the paint with a file and make sure the ends of the frame and joints are not bent or warped. If so, use the needle-nosed pliers to straighten.

STEP #2

Slide the vertical guides Vv-3 left and Ww-3 right into the 2 ends of the frames along the grooves, shaking while sliding for easier movement. Next, slide three (3) Yy-3 and one (1) Zz-3 from left side to right on top of the frame. The groove should be towards the interior of the unit. Repeat from the right side and space evenly.

ASSEMBLE PIECES BEFORE SCREWING THEM TO THE WALL

STEP #3

Assemble ML-3, N-3, O-3, and MR-3 as shown and position evenly above vertical guides, with the top of the track at 96’’ from the ground. Secure wall track and vertical tracks to brick or cement wall by drilling through the aluminum and using screws Xx-3. Insert the 2 horizontal guides, I3 & J3 at the top of the frame. Make sure the 2 frames are at the correct level, if not, use shims to compensate. Do not use tools to force.

NOTE: Once the wall track is in place, apply silicone along the top of the wall track and at the joint of the two tracks. Silicone is not supplied.

STEP #4

Set polycarbonate exposed side on the outside over horizontal left guide I-3, use one (1) Rr-3 panel, one (1) P-3 joint, and one (1) Ss-3 panel, then do the right side with one (1) Tt-3 panel, one (1) Q-3 joint and one (1) Uu-3 panel over the J-3 horizontal panel. Secure P-3 and Q-3 to I-3 and J-3 respectively with self-tapping screws (Z-3).

STEP #5

Set right rafter T-3 over the last bracket then secure it with the Bb-3 screw and continue screwing through joint K-3 with the Bb-3 screw. Repeat on left side with rafter S-3.

STEP #6

Set U-3 rafters over the middle of each panel with Bb-3 screws at the top and two (2) Z-3 screws over the brackets on frame manually. Set the U-3 rafter on each joint and use Z-3 screws manually. Do not use a power drill.

STEP #7

Remove the protective film from two (2) sides of each panel and make sure the top side of the panel faces the sunlight. Insert and slide on the top groove of the rafters all the way to the end. Pp-3 should go first and last with the Qq-3 panels in between.

STEP #8

Insert the aluminum middle roof joint between the rafters, making sure the slotted holes are at the bottom. Slide into the upper and lower grooves of the rafters then slide all the way into the panels. Make sure the panels are inside the aluminum middle roof joint groove. Insert a V-3 at either end, then insert all W-3 and then the remaining V-3. Tap gently with a rubber mallet if needed.

STEP #9

Insert the second row of panels into the lower groove on the rafter. Slide panels until they reach the aluminum pieces between the panels and gently tap on the panel to guide it into the aluminum groove. Use a spatula if needed to make it fit. Insert two (2) Pp-3 on either end, then insert the Qq-3 panels.

STEP #10

Starting at either end, add X-3 edging and one (1) R-3 bracket and screw with Bb-3 manually, do not use power drill. Add Y-3 edging and repeat until you reach the end, then add the X-3 edging.

STEP #11

On the inside of the solarium under each rafter, there are two rows of inserts with threads and one crossbeam in two pieces. Start the upper row with a Jj-3 at either end and Kk-3 between panels, screwing them in place with Ff- 3. Use Ff-3 screws for the lower row Ll-3 at the 2 ends and Mm-3 between panels. Lastly, Assemble Jj-3 and Kk -3, screwing them in place with Ff-3 . Make sure the screws are manually tight.

STEP #12

DOOR UNIT(S) MUST BE ASSEMBLED INSIDE OF SOLARIUM.

Slide upper door track F-3 into wheels of sliding door C-3. Slide lower door track G-3 and make sure inserts are close enough to the frame to attach. Use bolt Bb-3 to affix the plastic stopper H-3 on each end of top door rail F-3. Use Oo-3 screws to affix upper door rail and cap Nn-3, at each end of the top rail door.

STEP #13

Lift up door and track the inside of the solarium then set it over the door opening by screwing at the top. First use bolts (Ww) and washers (Gg-3) on the inside and female bolts (Cc-3-2) on the outside for the top assembly. See diagram below. Attach lower track with bolts (Cc-3) and washers (Gg-3). Set up door latch on the side required for your door to lock, adjust latch as required.

STEP #14

Please note the sliding door should be installed from the inside of the solarium.

Attach the door wheels into the top of door rail (F-3-2) of the sliding door (C-3-1).
Attach the plastic piece to the bottom door rail (G-3-1) of the sliding door (C-3-1).
Use bolt (Bb) to affix the plastic stoppers (H), one on each end of the top door rail (F-3-1) and (F-3-2).
Then use screw (Oo) to affix the upper door rail end caps (Nn) one at each end of top rail (F-3-1) and (F-3-2).
The other side of the top rail is same as the above step.

STEP #15

Anchor the solarium to the deck or floor securely using screws and shields supplied. See diagram below.

SPECIAL NOTES

To remove a screen, remove the two (2) screws at the top of the frame then pull sideways to the opposite end of the handles to remove. To remove wind panels, push or pull to one side, making sure that locking pin is not locked then remove panels gently, panels are easy to remove.
NOTE: This unit is not waterproof. For best protection against rain, close the windows of each frame with the outside window in the center, and the inside window at the top.
