The VI 36 and 46 include an additional pair of PRO210's to use at the midpoint of the long wall.

These include full concrete slabs, concrete footers, pier and beam constructions, and even timbers. If you are considering the use of wood in your construction, be aware that your greenhouse will likely outlast your wood. If you use pressure-treated wood, it is recommended to use a barrier material between the wood and the aluminum frame. When planning your anchoring method, you should keep in mind frost line\/ground heaving, wind load, greenhouse location, ground composition, weather, climate, and local building code. If you are unsure, you should consult with a local and experienced builder.

The manufacturer recommends an 8” wide concrete strip foundation that extends down to the frost line in your area. Please consult your local building codes for this information. It is recommended to leave a 4” diameter hole at the corner for the anchors to be embedded in concrete after the greenhouse frame is assembled and it is confirmed to be level and square. You can also place a PVC pipe or Sonotube embedded into your concrete. The PVC or Sonotube should be at least 4” wide in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0097\/9959\/8140\/files\/Janssens_corner_anchoring_600x600.png?v=1754493647\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3W62iOgLVG4?si=V2wIibtMwJTZwdIi\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003eAlternate way: Cutting the corners anchor posts and using concrete screws.\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf needed and the voids for the corner PRO210's were not included in the foundation pour, the PRO210's can be used to connect the two PRO6120's in the corner, then cut flush to the slab, and the remaining leftover parts of the PRO210 can be cut into three pieces and used as angle brackets to attach the corners to the foundation.  This assumes there is an adequate 'inside lip' on the foundation from the inside of the greenhouse frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteps:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou will have (4) 15 3\/4” long PRO210 L brackets.
