Introduction
Thank you for purchasing your Easy2BuildTM 8x10 Easy-Grow Greenhouse. This model features two roof
vents and a circular air vent to ensure proper ventilation. We have also included an automatic vent opener
to help you maintain optimal temperature effortlessly. When properly assembled and maintained, this
greenhouse will provide years of enjoyment.
These instructions include helpful hints and important information needed to safely assemble and
properly maintain the greenhouse. Please carefully read these instructions completely before you begin.
This greenhouse has been designed with patented technology to be easily assembled. All but one step
can be completed by one person. You will require assistance from another person to attach the roof.
Although the greenhouse can be assembled in six to eight hours, we recommend that you take your time
and make it aweekend project.

Before Starting Assembly:


CAREFULLY READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE YOU BEGIN AND FOLLOW THE STEPS IN
THE ORDER THEY ARE PRESENTED.
1. Make sure you have all the necessary parts:
Compare the contents of the two cartons to the List of Parts. If any parts are missing or damaged or
you have any questions, please contact Customer Service by phone at (877) 407-9100 ext. 1 or by email
at customerservice@stcaustin.com before beginning assembly.
2. Lay the parts out in separate staging areas:
The List of Parts has the corresponding step number referenced to each part. We recommend that
while you go through the list, make staging areas for each step and place the parts necessary fo
step in these areas. This will save you time and effort during assembly.
3. Select a Location:
When selecting a site for your greenhouse, a flat level area is essential and if possible, with proper
water drainage and easy access to power and water necessary for greenhouse gardening.
Choose a sunny, level position away from overhanging trees and power lines and protected from the
wind as much as possible. The location should be away from structures that could cause snow to drift
on or around the greenhouse.
Locate underground pipes or cables before preparing the site or anchoring the greenhouse.
Note: You may assemble the greenhouse on a hard level surface and move it to its final position when
finished. Make sure there are no obstacles between the assembly area and the final position.
4. Prepare a Foundation:
After choosing a location, proper preparation of the site is essential. The site must be level. If the site is
not level, create a base slightly larger than the outside dimensions of the greenhouse using a perimeter
of two by fours filled with either soil, sod or gravel. Make sure the base is square by measuring the
diagonals from both sides and making sure they are equal. The greenhouse is secured from the inside
with pegs into holes cast with concrete. See step16 for details.
If you decide to have a concrete base, it is best to contact a reliable contractor to ensure it is flat and
level.Make sure you have checked with your local authorities regarding any required building permits.
5. Make sure you have the proper tools:
• Tape Measure • Small Step Ladder
• Work Gloves • Wooden Mallet
• Safety Goggles • Liquid Soap or WD40 Lubricant
• Phillips Screwdriver • Scissors
• Spirit Level • Hex Key (included)
NOTE: A cordless drill with Phillips head bit is highly recommended but not essential.

Install Weather Stripping
If you have been assembling your greenhouse in another place than

! it’s final position, we recommend you move the greenhouse before


you begin these steps. Have at least one person help you carry it.

NOTE: You will find a roll of 111.5 meters of black rubber weather
stripping. You will need a pair of scissors for this step.

13 From the outside of the greenhouse, line up the black rubber stripping with the
V-channels of all profiles. Cut to length of each profile as you work, pushing the
stripping between the panel and the empty space in the V-channel of the profile.
NOTE: Install stripping in all front, back, side, gable and roof profiles.

IMPORTANT: The black rubber stripping J01B is cut to length with scissors. Make sure to insert stripping as
shown, securely into the V-channels of all the profiles, cutting each piece to the proper length. This will help
protect the inside of your greenhouse from the weather.

the greenhouse. We recommend using two people to hang the doors.

NOTE: You will use the remainder of the roll of 111.5 meters of black
rubber weather stripping. You will need a pair of scissors for this step.

15.1 Follow instructions for step 13 to install rubber weather stripping


to outside of doors.
IMPORTANT: The rubber stripping J01B is cut to length with scissors. Make sure to insert
stripping as shown, securely into the V-channels of all the profiles, cutting each piece
to the proper length. This will help protect the inside of your greenhouse from the weather.

Secure to Ground
IMPORTANT: The greenhouse must be firmly secured to the ground.
! Make sure the foundation is FLAT and LEVEL. Make sure the greenhouse
is square. The two diagonal measurements inside the greenhouse should
be identical.

16 From the inside of the greenhouse, insert the S34 anchor clips into
channels of side profiles L01C and L01D at each corner and center of both
sides. Place the S35 pegs through the holes and into the ground to establish proper
placement. Remove the pegs, dig holes 12”/30cm deep and fill with concrete. When
the concrete is partially dry, use a hammer to drive the pegs all the way into the
concrete and let dry completely for twenty four hours.
NOTE: Insert S34 anchor clips into the channel of side profiles L01C
and L01D at a slight angle and slide under the lip of the channel.
