Greenhouse roof vent help

[Vossy1]

Does anyone have an aluminium greenhouse with a roof vent? I have a second hand 8x6 and it's assembled and being used however I'm not convinced the roof vent is fitted correctly, If anyone has one please could you take a picture of the vent closed and slightly ajar and post it up for me so I can double check. Mines leaking and I think it may be the way I've positioned the slam rail. I know there are many different types but they are all pretty standard in design so hopefully I can get to the bottom of it.

 

i dont have one myself ...

Thanks for the pics guys and the link Mick, much appreciated :thumb: I spent a few hours :shock: searching the net but couldn't get the answer I was looking for, but the pics you guys have posted have confirmed I have fitted mine incorrectly. I have the bottom 'lip' of the window/vent frame on the inside of the slam rail, not the outside like yours. The reason for fitting it this way is that there is a seal on the outer edge of the window lip of my greenhouse and the more experienced chaps at the allotment told there must be a reason for the seal so it must go on the inside, originally I had fitted the lip on the outside. I'll take a pic later today and post it up :thumb:

 

glad you sorted it out ... :thumb: .
