Assembly and installation

Because a video is clearer than words.

A simple, step-by-step guide. Allow two full days with four people, or four days with two, if your site is ready on delivery.

Preparing the installation

Six to eight weeks to prepare the site.

That is the lead time between your order and delivery — enough to level the ground, start the paperwork and arrange insurance.

01

A flat site

Concrete slab, metal mesh or wooden platform: the base must be level and the dome firmly anchored to the ground.

02

Good ground insulation

This is crucial for comfort and for any commercial activity later carried out inside the dome.

03

Planning procedures

A prior declaration below 20 m², a building permit above. Allow up to three months for approval, depending on the local authority.

04

Insurance

Remember to insure your dome and the activity you run inside it before bringing it into service.

Ground fixings

Three fixing methods depending on your ground.

Wooden floors

The dome is screwed directly onto the platform or wooden floor, with fixing plates spread across the whole base.

Grass or sand

Anchors driven into the ground hold the structure on natural terrain, with no slab needed.

Concrete or cement

Expansion bolts fix the base to the existing slab, for a permanent installation.

A composite decking made of panels is a quick alternative to a concrete slab: it sits on adjustable pedestals and can be dismantled. Discover the composite decking →
