Setup and Assembly
Assembly typically requires two people. Follow the numbered parts and diagrams provided in the separate assembly guide for detailed steps. The following outlines key considerations for a stable setup.
1. Prepare the Site
Choose a level, well-drained area for your greenhouse. Ensure adequate space around the structure for access and stability measures.

2. Assemble the Frame
Connect the galvanized steel poles according to the assembly diagrams. The upgraded galvanized frame provides enhanced support compared to standard powder-coated pipes. Ensure all connections are secure.

3. Install the Cover
Carefully drape the 140gPE fabric cover over the assembled frame. Ensure the zipper doors and screen windows are correctly aligned. The cover is designed to be UV-blocking, waterproof, and snowproof, contributing to a long service life.
4. Secure the Greenhouse
Proper anchoring is crucial for stability, especially in windy conditions. The bottom of the greenhouse cloth has an extension design; place heavy stones or sandbags on this extension to secure it firmly to the ground. Additionally, use the provided ground pegs and ropes to tie down the greenhouse, utilizing the D-rings attached to the frame for improved wind resistance.
The zipper doors are equipped with specially designed door fixing rods on both sides to secure the door to the pole, enhancing wind resistance.
Operating Instructions
Ventilation
The greenhouse features 6 screen windows on both sides to facilitate air circulation. Open these windows to increase airflow and regulate temperature, which helps protect your plants. The screen design also prevents unwanted birds and insects from entering.

Door Operation
The greenhouse is equipped with zipper doors for easy access. Use the zippers to open and close the door. For added security and wind resistance, utilize the door fixing rods to secure the door to the frame when closed. When open, the door can be rolled up and secured with the safety buckle.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Clean the PE fabric cover periodically with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the galvanized steel frame for any signs of rust or damage. Check all connections to ensure they remain tight.
- Cover Integrity: Examine the fabric cover for tears or punctures. Small repairs can be made with appropriate repair tape to prolong the cover's life.
- Anchoring: Verify that the ground pegs, ropes, and any heavy stones/sandbags used for anchoring are still securely in place, especially after strong winds or heavy precipitation.
- Snow Removal: In areas with heavy snowfall, gently remove accumulated snow from the roof to prevent excessive weight from damaging the frame.
