The body of a truck consists of a cab and a cargo platform. For this reason, two independent components can be distinguished in the repair of the body:

• cargo platform repair
• cabin repair

In turn, the modular design of the platform makes real to have different options:

• Tinted platforms with non-collapsible or collapsible frame
• Side platforms without frame and awning (open platforms)
• Rigid roof platforms and sliding curtains
• Platforms with and curtains
• Side platforms with crane-manipulator
• Side platform (isothermal van)
• Side platform (van)

Setting the sliding roof with your own hands

No, I do not call for the fact that everyone needs to start collecting a sliding roof with their own hands. On the contrary, I think that always professionals should be engaged in their work, which means that the customer may find his company for himself and trust it in fulfilling his ideas and wishes. And, nevertheless, it is clear that if you decide to install or make a shift roof repair, it will be significantly cheaper than specialist services. When we try to do something, I didn't do anything earlier, a certain fear occurs. Fear in front of an unknown, which encourages us to defeat and prevents concentrate. In this regard, it is difficult only the first step. Start with familiarizing PDF documents that are set out below. Of course, you should have certain knowledge and readiness to learn new, the ability to overcome difficulties and fight our own errors that do not every time in the technique without consequences. But, free - will. Just want to warn about one moment. Even if you have good knowledge of truck repair, it cannot guarantee you a process of calm creation without possible difficulties.

Now you can buy a ready-made greenhouse of any shape and size, and the owner who knows how to keep the tools in his hands, can build it in a matter of days, the benefit of typical projects is quite a lot. The greenhouses with a sliding roof or removable roofing elements are especially popular.

Often, during construction with your own hands, questions arise: what form to do the design, from which materials than to cover, what roof is better for the greenhouse? Answers depend on the method of placement of construction, sizes, wind and snow loads in the area. Next, we will review which types of roofs are most relevant, and we will give step-by-step instructions, how the greenhouse is made with a removable roof with their own hands.

Select form

Constructive greenhouse, mainly depends on the installation site, so, if it is a separate construction, then an arched or double roof is usually made, it is less commonly broken, spherical, pyramidal forms. For the requested structures, it is advisable to choose a single-sided or curved, asymmetric.

The hinged roof for greenhouses from polycarbonate, is large forms on the lifts, suitable for film buildings

Material of manufacture, for example, manufacture an arched wood framework is quite difficult, it takes time and knowledge of technology, special templates and clamps, therefore, the construction on a wooden base is more often a rectangular shape under the same, two-screw roof. Metal bend easier, especially if there is a pipe bender, the service can be ordered in any construction store, the metal is more often built with arched roofs, more rarely found curvilinear roofs and duplex. If the base from PVC pipes, it is better to stay on the arch. Glass buildings are possible only under a single, two-screw roof, but the elements are fraught with fragile glass, moreover, the material is heavy, little is suitable for folding and sliding structures. Modern technologies allow you to bend the glass, but the process is expensive and not appropriate for hozpostroops.

See how gracefully went the roof of a single-piece greenhouse, a convenient and practical option.

Sometimes the materials for construction are combined, make a wooden base that the metal farm matches, or vice versa, metal carcass under duscal roof From wood.

The roofs of complex forms, including broken and curvilinear, are extremely rare, due to the complexity of manufacture rafter system. Design-drawings of a broken roof roof for greenhouses are better to take ready, all loads and angles of conjugations are calculated there, independent calculations are quite problematic.

For small greenhouses, folding roofs are relevant, usually single. Now it has become popular to do opening roofs, usually 2 species:

• arched sliding, sections folding one by one;
• single, 2-stranded roofs with folding elements of the roof.

Tilt angle

For scanty greenhouses, the optimal angle of inclination 15-45 o, more accurate parameters depend on the calculations that are made on the basis of wind and snow loads in your area. Flat roof It is not recommended to do, since the likelihood of its savage from the severity of snow is great.

Arched are considered to be most suitable for all regions, they have excellent aerodynamic characteristics, it is practically not necessary to clean such structures from snow, it is rolled out with sloping sides.

Shift roof greenhouses

It is not difficult to make the simplest sliding roof, it will take a drawing of a greenhouse from a polycarbonate with a double roof, only the connections of sheets should be performed not to the thermoshaba, but to arrange a groove system from the polycarbonate strips.

Modern slimy roofs for greenhouses

Due to the demand of the structures, we will describe some greenhouses from the opening roof. By method of device:

• Removable - removed with a whole element or parts.
• Mobile - segments move, parts can be parted one by one.
• Sliding - parts travel around in opposite sides.
• Sliding partially - one or more segments are removed, moved to the stationary area.

According to the functionality, the greenhouse with the opening tops also differ:

• capital - winter greenhouses on the foundation;
• seasonal - are operated only during the crop growing, easy, usually easily disassembled;
• temporary - small, light greenhouses, in the form of houses, tents that can be easily transferred to any place.

Partially shifting roof, convenient for venting

Constructive features

In essence, opening roofs for greenhouses can be divided into 2 large groups:

• folding, elements are attached by loops, open manually or using automation;
• sliding - installed on special rails, which can be located along the design, or elements are moved up built.

We offer a video about the collapsible, sliding on the rails of the greenhouse, the sections are going to one on one as a matryoshka.

Rails can be straight, then segments drive in a straight line, on each other, to the sides. Due to the high price, greenhouses with dome roofs are less likely, here the rails are curvilinear, in a circle, segments are coming one to one.

Important: Greenhouses with sliding roofs are better to cover with polycarbonate, the material is strong, steadyly tolerate mechanical effects, the film can take place at frequent operation. For folding elements, greenhouses are equally advisable to use polycarbonate and film coating.

In the question of sliding structures, the drive is a power device that leads the system into action. For simple greenhouses, such a power unit is the owner, which opens the sections manually, with the help of winch, hoists, simple mechanisms. If you allow finance, then the best option It is a greenhouse with an automatic sliding roof, it greatly facilitates work, saves time. If you install the thermal sensors and the relay, the design itself will be opened when the temperature is raised and perform the reverse process when cooling.

Remember the anecdote: I like a convertible, all such cool, but no roofs. A greenhouse convertible with a removable roof is really a very practical design, usually coated with polycarbonate. Finished products can be bought different lengths, they are durable, they are not afraid of snow loads, you understand: there is no roof - there are no problems either, the snow through the opening falls inside the construction, there are no side loads. You can make such a greenhouse with a removable roof with your own hands, it is important to choose the desired metal, usually professional 20 * 20 mm 25 * 20 mm, 40 * 20 mm, bend it, and adjust the mechanism to push the sections. A greenhouse convertible with a removable roof has been very proven among advanced gobblers, the forum reviews indicate practicality, strength of building and convenience during operation.

Cabriolet greenhouse - practical, reliably, economically, convenient

Check out the video about the greenhouse with a sliding roof, such a transformer can be easily made with your own hands.

How to make a sliding roof for greenhouse with their own hands - manual instructions

Based on the review of the opening roofs, it can be concluded: either the roof or a whole segment of the greenhouse moves along the rails, or the part opens with a special lift. Both options are available when building a greenhouse with a sliding roof.

First option - on rails

In fact, the retirement segments is carried out on the principle of the usual doors of the coupe. We make a solid foundation, a drips on it, which is better to buy in the store. Separately, we make arched parts, we attach a metal bar from below, for smoothness of the stroke equipped with wheels. At the end of the rails it is recommended to install the stopper so that the parts do not go beyond the bar.

Tip: If it is necessary that the segments come in one to one, then the arcs should be of different diameters, from smaller to more.

Mechanism that will help make sliding greenhouses from polycarbonate

If you have a rectangular design, the rail mechanism can be installed on the upper strapping and the arched sliding roof is fixed. In buildings under the scandalous roofs, you can make sliding walls, this device is based on again.

Option Second - simple, homemade

Sliding designs are very easy to perform and do not require the cost of buying expensive elements. The principle of operation consists in the groove system, that is, on the frame there should be special pockets for which a sheet of polycarbonate will be held. This protester principle is suitable for arched and pitched roofs.

The sliding roof of the greenhouse from polycarbonate is made pretty simple:

• On rafters or pre-prepared arcs, secure the polycarbonate strip, 70-100 mm wide
• We install special lining on the band, plastic strips are suitable, a thickness of 6-15 mm, 15-30 mm width.
• From above, the polycarbonate is again secreted, so we have a groove in the photo below, in which we will insert sheets.

In the photo example, how to make grooves, for sliding roof

Scope roofs can be shifted down, and for arched, it is necessary to provide a place where the sheets will be driven, so some part of the roof at the top of the arc should be left deaf.

Good day. Wonderful day. Because ... you will learn how to make a roof for a canopy and pergola. In one article I collected all the ways, and all instructions, with detailed explanations and photos. It turned out a mega-article. But here there is everything you need if you want to make a roof of a canopy or pergola with your own hands. (After all, we already know ... and how to make a carport)

I will tell and about the static roof for pergola (one that is not removed) ... and about the sliding roof (you can drive out for the shade, and push the sun).

So me with a static (non-removable) roof.

Roof (non-removable) of transparent polycarbonate.

In fact, this roof - turns our pergola - in the most real canopy.

That is - if you want to build a canopy (above the porch or at the garage) - then here simple idea... First we build pergola () in the wall () - and then cover it with sheets of polycarbonate.

And we get a classic canopy with a single roof.

Here is another variety of the same, enclosed polycarbonate. In a special article I will show in detail the design of this model of pergola (with an inclined roof) And I will tell you how to flatten and attach polycarbonate on the roof.

Textile binding - pergola on the crate

(from tent tunic).

A very simple solution to quickly and sound make a roof for a canopy (or pergola).

Good option - if your goal is to create a shadow ...

As for the rain - then such a textile roofing from the shower does not close your furniture ... But from a small rain it is quite suitable.

What material is used - for such a roof under pergola?

This is the usual tissue for the awnings. PVC fabric, or tissue with a polyurethane coating ... and even there is a tent cloth with teflon coating.

There are also matte and varnished. With lacquered dirt very simply washed off.

Such awning tissues are resistant to temperature differences, to ultraviolet, to rotting. Possess water-repellent effects - do not merge and corrosion. They are very durable (of them even boats are doing). A good guarantee of fabric suppliers such a tent roof 8 years will serve you faithfully and truth, and after 8 years nothing will be done with it.

Another opportunity to save ... There is a cheaper analogue of the tent fabric (cheaper tarp and cheaper than tent PVC fabric) is a tartaul (or tarpix). Tarpulin is made from braided polyethylene (density from 120g / m2).

And by the way, often the awning material for the roof is already selling with holes and metal champs lying in it (rings).

How much is the tent fabric and where to buy it?

Well, for example, lightweight awning PVC material (density of 450 g \\ m) - 3 dollars per sq.m.

But the price of Tarpulin - here we see that 114 rubles per piece of 2x3 (that is, for 6 sq.m.). Tarpulina size line - wide, ranging from these same 2x3 and ending 20x20. And the color can be any.

But in the photo below - we see that there are combinations of two roofing flooring.

And a tent roof (for shadow from the sun) - and polycarbonate sheets (for protection against rain).

And here is another exotic alternative to the awning coating or pergola.

Mats - the cheapest pleasure - but here is another obvious plus.

According to the same principle, pergola may appear mineland... And we have already closed from the wind, oblique rain, curious eyes of the neighbors.

Although .... Wait - the same wall principle can be implemented and with tent cloth. To build a roman ton of tight fabric (it will also go down or climb) ...

Or order a roller mechanism - to lower the awning walls of the canopy. Here is such ...

And finally, we come to the sliding roof for pergola and canopy.

Sliding roof for canopy and pergola

(4 ways to do it yourself)

Well, now we will look at Four roofs with sliding system -this will also be the roofs of the tent tunic, but they will easily push the entire canopy ... or move aside, opening the sun.

I will show in detail 4 technologies - which will allow it to do - shift and push the textile roof.

How to make a sliding roof for a canopy

Fashion first (with discharge)

You can do so ...

1. textiles rolls on the river ...
2. Along the left and right beam - a long groove (deepening like rails) is muted on the machine.
3. Sweets with a cloth outer on them are inserted with one end in the groove of the left beam - the second end in the groove of the right beam. And freely - there and moving inside these grooves. Putting and shifting our awning roof.

Simply? Yes - just.

What is inconvenient? It is inconvenient to drink a groove ... It turns out that you need to have a special machine, and not everyone has it.

In this case, you will be suitable for the second way - it is already much easier.

Method of the second (with metal profile)

In this way - we do not need to cut the groove. Here we will take ready-made grooves (in metal products) and just attach it to our beams. These are such different profiles - rails - on them and our roof strips will move.

1. Press the awning roof (Fresh Rake Planks to the awning canvase)
2. We buy metallic (steel or aluminum) Metal profile - can be taken as used for attaching plasterboard or suspended ceilings. The main thing is that in this melligal profile - there was a groove - inside which our slats will move with a tent cloth with a tanta cloth.
3. Along the side beams (right and left) you feed this metal profile. We get the rail we need. It remains only to insert a plank with an awning tanta cloth into it.

(How to put awning tissue on the planks - in the same article - at the very end.)

How to make a mounted roof for pergola

Method Third (on the steel cable)

Or here's another idea - when the curtain canvas moves on the crochets in the steel cable.

1. Along the extreme transverse beams pull the metallic strip
2. By the end of the rail, adjust the hook hooks.
3. Insert the rails in the awning cloth (more about it below)
4. Draw hooks on the cable. The hooks freely slide on the cable - the hinged roof is moving freely and forth.

What can serve you as a hook hooks (you will learn a little later) for now ...

If there are no hooks - you can differently

make slide our roof on the rope ….

In the canvas make holes and insert them Puverness (These are such metal rings) - they are for the ruble put in any workshop, where the buttons on clothing are inserted there). Previously, tick the pencil of the place of luplicas (the holes do not need to do in advance) -to workshop they make it possible automatically.

Or - you can already buy awning canvas - the desired size - and with the edges already underwater chalmess. The same organizations that sell awnings and tissues - they themselves break all the holes you need. Even the canvas of different ramps with cramped chammers are immediately already ready - In their online stores.

Here (!!!) I quivered a photo ... where it clearly seen how the chapens slide on the cables - Here is the truth there is no canopy and pergolas - but the principle of this system is clearly visible.

Can still be implemented differently

the same method of sliding curtain curtains.

By a similar system - the roof is arranged for a canopy - performed in the technique of Roman curtains . Here are looking at the photo below - face and wear ...

See the technique?

A thin speech line (several specks) is sewn in the speed ... and along the ribs of each speech - curtains metallic Rings - The cable will be sold through them ... And on these regions of Curtain, Tudya goes here on the cable.

Just and clearly.

And if you come to the choice of fabric creatively ... then you can make a roof from not necessarily tent tissue ... and from another dense material. It is more beautiful. But no longer so firmly and durable.

And if there is no steel cable ...

By the way ... instead of steel cable - You can also use the steel rod (or pipe) - this is how in the photo below.

To do this, you need a pipe (metal, you can adapt cornice from curtains for this purpose) and attach this pipe with pipe holders.

How to make a mounted roof for pergola

Four fashion (on the roller mechanism)

There is such a thing - which is called the cornice systems for winter gardens. Usually they are installed on attic - if they want to smash the winter garden under the glass on the south side of the house.

And here are the firms that supply roller cornisic systems for such winter gardens - just can make sliding curtains for you under pergola or canopy - they will install themselves. Just pay money.

Here you probably have already matured QUESTION... I'm talking everywhere to "put the planks on the canvas", "insert speckters in the awning canvas" - and you think "and how these slats-rails attach to the canvase, it is not clear ..."

Now it will be clear.

How to mount the planks on the tent-roof cloth.

Look at the photo below ... We see the model where ...

Firstly - Excellent visible how are the planks on the canvas (At the location of the plank, the canvas folds into bend-bend-backing from the edge of the fold of 2-3 centimeters we drive a line to sewing machine - In the end, we get such a corrider's carmakers - which we just fit the robrel needed (wooden or iron).

Everything is simple.

Secondly - On the same photo, we can also clearly consider how to arrange hooks on the planks . This design can be welded. welding apparatus (Better to order at the Metal Careature Transaction).

Or proceed easier ... To the wooden plump straps to nourish an iron curved fastener (here it is in the photo above) - and then you will get a wooden bar - with an iron hooking at the end and you can already put the hooks on the rollers (or hooks on the cable ).

In short ... if you have brains and patience (and you have patience, since you read this article to the end) ... then you will not be difficult to make your own hand-made sliding roof for canopy or pergola.

Moreover, what the essence you now understand ... And you can choose any method of this article ... and make it in life.

Family pile - all under power.))

Many gardeners and farmers wondered about the construction of the greenhouses at their site. Such a simple building will help grow seedlings in cold regions, round year Have greens on the table or, as an option, sell vegetables or fruits for the cold season. Evaluating the cost of the finished greenhouse in stores, immediately disappears to buy it, however, if you like to make it yourself with your own hands and you have enough time, then you can build a greenhouse with the sliding roof yourself. This article will help embody all dreams of life and save. a large number of funds.

The advantages of using greenhouses from the opening roof

Before making a greenhouse with the opening top, it is worth learn about her differences and positive sides.
If you are confused by such a greenhouse design, and you are accustomed to seeing the facilities that have monolithic roofs, then take a look at "Pluses" of this variation:

1. Summer such greenhouses are much easier to airSince the stream of fresh air does not come through narrow doors, but through the roof. It is worth mentioning that with such an aircraft there is no draft, and therefore plants do not threaten anything.
2. Folding roof gives more light and heatrather than monolithic. Therefore, you will not only give the cultures the necessary sunlight, but also save on artificial lighting.
3. Greenhouse with a sliding roof it's easier to protect against deformation in lots of winter. That is, it is enough for you to remove the roof and give the snow to spray the ground inside the construction. In structures with a monolithic roof such "manipulation" is impossible.
4. Protection of landing from overheating. If in the spring nature decided to arrange a sharp rise temperature, then the plants can "lie" in the usual greenhouse under the scorching sun. Having a construction with a folding ride, it will not be difficult to reduce the temperature, because the area of \u200b\u200bthe roof is many times more than the area of \u200b\u200bthe door.
5. Economy. To build a greenhouse with opening riding a lot less means, since you build a greenhouse "for yourself", choosing the desired dimensions and does not save on the framework of the structure.

Did you know? The first greenhouses Similar to modern, used yet B. Ancient Romeand in Europe a greenhouse for the first time built a talented German gardener Albert Man.g.us in the 13th century - he created a magnificent winter garden for royal reception in Cologne. However, the Inquisition did not believe that such a miracle could be carried out with the help of human labor, and the gardener was convicted of witchcraft.

From the above, it can be concluded that the greenhouse with a folding riding has enough advantages to pay attention to it. Moreover, its construction does not "be on the pocket" of the owner, and therefore immediately starts to generate income.

Features of the design of greenhouses with sliding mechanism

Hovering the construction of the structure, it is worth paying attention to the roof variations for the greenhouse.

Regardless of the form and size of the construction, constructive features all the roofs divide on two types: folding and sliding.

Flap roof. The main feature is that moving parts are attached to the loop (like the window or doors) and open manually or using power mechanisms.

Sliding roof. Elements are installed on special "rails", according to which parts of the structure slide. Such a greenhouse opens or manually, or with the help of the mechanism.

It is worth noting that the folding roof is most often put on greenhouses, made in the form of the house, and sliding - on structures with smoothed edges or in the form of the dome.

Did you know?In Europe, the greenhouses began to be used in the 16th century, they grown exotic fruits and plants. However, this could afford only aristocrats.

If you allow financial capabilities, you can create a similarity "Smart greenhouses"which reacts to moisture and temperature, and the power mechanism will open or close the roof when it is necessary. It would seem that there are two traditional types of greenhouses with a drop-down riding, which everyone uses, why try something else and re-invent the bike? However, everything is not so simple.

If, for example, you want to build a high narrow greenhouse with the opening top, then not to do with only one mechanism. That is why there are so-called "hybrids" when the greenhouse is installed and folded, and sliding system. If you have the necessary knowledge, or it requires the design of the structure, then you can build a greenhouse with a removable roof with your own hands. That is, the roof will open and separate from the greenhouse. In this case, a folding roof is used, but the mounts themselves are selected so that the moving part can be disconnected.

Important! The construction of the hybrid mechanism, through which the roof opens, requires serious engineering calculations, costs and additional knowledge, so the article will consider only the standard types of the opening roof.

How to make a greenhouse with the opening roof with your own hands (polycarbonate)

Go to how to make a greenhouse with a revealing roof. To deal with the choice of the desired roof material, we will make a slight retreat.

Preparatory work, choice of material

Standard greenhouse are covered filmHowever, this material though has a low price, not suitable for creating a durable structure. If you use the film, then you will have to "patch" the greenhouse at least once a year. And one or two imperceptible holes in the coating can destroy all planted cultures.

That is why we recommend using polycarbonate. What is the polycarbonate better than the film and how much is it more expensive? Speaking of price, it is worth saying that this is the only minus material. It is an order of magnitude more expensive than film, but it is worth learn about him benefits, and the price becomes justified.

1. Polycarbonate best misses the light than film.
2. The greenhouse with the drop-down riding from the carbonate is many times more resistant to mechanical damage. The material is withstanding greater weight than the film, therefore it is better protects against severe busting of wind or heavy snowfalls.
3. The material has the same plasticity as the film, therefore it is used to create greenhouses of any form.
4. Polycarbonate serves at least twenty years, which is ten times higher than the service life of a cheaper material.
5. Polycarbonate does not floss and does not miss moisture.

Evaluating the pluses of polycarbonate, go to preparatory stagewhich precedes the construction of a folding or sliding greenhouse with his own hands.

One way or another, and you will have to feel like an architect. Before drawing up the drawings, select the desired plot (so that there is no strong inclination or he was not in the pit), visually place the greenhouse so that it is as high as possible by the sun.

Next follow blueprints. To make them up, you need to measure the length, width and height of the future greenhouse. Think of what products will be grown, because it is possible that you do not need a greenhouse, but rather a greenhouse with a folding or sliding riding from the same polycarbonate. It is better to draw up drawings for several days, and even weeks to accurately measure all the sizes and buy a strictly necessary amount of materials.

Important! In the event that you do not know how much you need materials, provide the drawings in the store where you are going to make purchases.

What tool will need to build a greenhouse

To build a folding or sliding greenhouse from polycarbonate with your own hands, you need to collect a certain list of tools.

It is worth noting that in this case a part of the greenhouses will be attached with bolts, clamps and other parts. Welding will not be used due to the fact that such a greenhouse is almost impossible to disassemble in the future. If you are worried about the strength and efficiency of such a structure, then you dare to assure that the attachments are not inferior to welding in strength, and in the money it turns out at once cheaper.

To build a folding or sliding greenhouse with your own hands you will need the following tools:

1. Bulgarian;
2. Electrolovik;
3. Electric drill;
4. Level, roulette, metal scissors;
5. Cross screwdriver;
6. Spanners;
7. Device for disinfecting the profile pipe.

To this list, you can add all devices to protect against dust, noise and mechanical damage (building glasses, headphones, respirator, rubberized gloves).

How to make a greenhouse with a sliding mechanism, step-by-step instruction

We begin the construction of the sliding greenhouse with your own hands.

You need to start fill foundation. This is a mandatory element of the greenhouse of polycarbonate, since the frame and the observed material weighs a lot, and the greenhouse will simply begin to see how the house without a foundation. Fill the foundation around the perimeter, given the creation of the "pillow". The depth and width of the foundation is selected depending on the structure of the soil and the amount of precipitation.

Next is mounted frame greenhouse. Depending on preferences, it is possible to use steel, aluminum or mounting profile. We do not recommend using aluminum, as it is although it has a small weight, but too plastic for serious structures. It is worth the aluminum only if you have a small greenhouse (no more than 30 square meters. M.). By installing the frame, pay attention to the density of partitions and their additional strengthening. Even if there are no strong winds in your region, additional strengthening never hurts.

In the process of mounting the frame, use the so-called "crabs" or crusades to the best way Secure the components.

Important! Mounting the frame, refer to the rigid rigid, which will strengthen the design.

If you form a dome-shaped greenhouse, then use a pipe bending machine to bend racks.

Most important moment – sliding mechanism. The first option provides for the installation of the roof on the rails. It is suitable for large greenhouses in which a moving part of many weighs and it will simply be impossible to move, if it is not equipped with wheels. We install the rail (the mounting profile is suitable), which is attached by the rail. The system of movement on the rails is similar to the door-compartment. Next, we build a folding top, which is attached to a metal bar with wheels.

Important! In the process of choosing and buying material, carefully select the chassis with wheels. The greater the greenhouse - the more the rails and the wheels themselves should be, so that they are free to "drove" along the rails.

A simpler and cheapest option is suitable for small greenhouses. Used fastening fastening system. The meaning is that, unlike the past version, this does not imply the installation of rails and movements for small wheels. The best "groove option" is suitable for arched and pitched roofs.

On the prepared arcs, the strip is fixed (about 7-10 cm in width) of polycarbonate. Next, plastic linings are fastened with a width of 6 to 15 mm and a length of 1.5-3 cm. And on top of the plastic put the identical first polycarbonate band. As a result, we obtain the grooves in which the main sheets of polycarbonate will be inserted. Thus, the frame will be static, and only the material itself will move.

When the frame is ready, go to the cutting and installation of polycarbonate. After performing accurate measurements, draw the cuts of the cuts and use the electrolovka or circular saw. It is necessary to fix the material with a falsestone (about 40 cm) using stainless bolts or screws with seals. It should be noted that screwing the bolts "until the stop" do not need, since you can damage the underfloor material. We do not recommend nail policarbonate, otherwise, in case of damage, it will be difficult to remove it, and you can spoil the carcass of the greenhouse itself.

Ultimately make installation entrance door And, if so conceived, windows.

Using the described actions, you can build a greenhouse with a sliding roof with your own hands quickly and easily.

Making a greenhouse with a sliding roof of window frames

The greenhouse with a sliding roof on the basis of window frames, though no particular durability, but helps to save a large amount of money. If you have enough required material, It is worth putting partitions as close as possible.

Important! It is impossible to use rotten or deformed frames.

Building greenhouses from window frames has its own characteristics:

• the greenhouse can only be in the form of a house, no dome-shaped designs will not work;
• tree, though lighter than iron, but still tangible presses on the ground, so the foundation must be;
• for the movement of the roof, only a grocery fastening system is used, it will not work for the rails;
• material consumption will be many times if window Rama have additional partitions for the vessels;
• wood is a hydrophobic material, which means it will absorb a lot of moisture and deteriorate, so you have to treat the frame to any non-toxic lacquer or gel for plants;
• frames before installation must be cleaned of paint, varnish and other harmful components;
• consider the peculiarities of the plants that you will grown in a greenhouse, because many pests use wood as a shelter or feed on it.

Thus, the use of window frames is though profitable from an economic point of view, but additional problems and risks are carried out. If you want to install a greenhouse for 2-3 years, then the window frames will be very weltering, but if you build a building for 10-15 years - it is better to refuse the frame as a frame.

Preparation of material and tools

4. Metal corners and other fasteners for wooden elements;
5. Anchor bolts (16 × 150 mm);
6. Wooden bars (50 × 50 mm);
7. Ax and hammer;
8. Metal fittings;
9. Polycarbonate;

Manufacture of greenhouse

Installation and fastening of the carcass of the greenhouse, which consists of window frames, is significantly different, so it needs to be thoroughly learned.

Before starting construction clean window frames From paint and dirt, close the slots using the mounting foam.

After that, start mount the window frames on the prepared foundation. It is best for attaching window blocks to use iron corners that connect frames between themselves. The corner is paved from the inside and tightly pressed against the wood with a screwdriver. The frame must be stable to provide you with long and reliable use.

Next you need to do little crate. Make it from the mounting profile, wooden rivers and steel wire. Window blocks are installed on the base and fasten with the help of self-tapping screws, clamps, corners, wires and nails.

After the framework of the frame, carefully inspect it.

If it seems to you that the construction lacks stability, install a multiple support from the insidewhich will remove part of the load with side faces.

After completing the construction, we close the possible cracks of the foam and apply paint to the outer part of the frame.

To build a high-quality and durable greenhouse with a sliding roof, used mainly steel profile of a rectangular section of different diameters. To date, you can purchase ready-made structures with pastry material from polycarbonate. Greenhouses are there of different widths And lengths, their height is also different.

Very popular and greenhouses from wood, in the manufacture of which is used both the bar and the window frame.

Residents of apartment buildings of Soviet buildings When replacing wooden windows to metal-plastic structures are wondering where to give old frames.

Polycarbonate conducts light and at the same time protects plants from harmful rays.

The thermal shelter material is characterized by high characteristics that allow the use of polycarbonate for 8-10 years without damage to its operational qualities.

Before being taken for building the greenhouse, you need to make a drawing of the future facilities.

In the figure you need to specify the size of the greenhouse - its width, height and length, calculate the amount of the required material. Polycarbonate is better to take with a slight margin to cover the entire greenhouse.

How to make a sliding roof yourself:

1. The basis of the greenhouse is assembled from rectangular metal pipes that are not corrosion. They are twisted with special screws or connected by welding.
2. First you need to determine which parts of the roof will be shifted. You can make a broken whole roof, you can only certain parts of it. For ventilation, a small greenhouse is enough to open several segments.
3. On both sides of the movable element of the roof in profiles, a special groove is installed, which will ride part of the cover. Polycarbonate sheet is installed in these grooves.
4. Next is mounted the rest of the greenhouse.
