SPECIFICATIONS - the standard features included in the price

  • Mill finish
  • Galvanised steel base plinth (makes installation easier)
  • Strong aluminium frame with 10 year guarantee
  • Horticultural glass included
  • Integral gutter
  • Single sliding door
  • All greenhouses include 2 free roof vents
  • Eaves height 4'4" (1310mm) including base plinth
  • Ridge height 7'4" (2235mm) including base plinth
  • Door height 6'2" (1880mm) including base plinth
  • Door width 1'11" (570mm)

    MILL FINISH ALUMINIUM Mill finish is the natural colour of aluminium before it is painted. It is cheaper than painted aluminum but just as strong and durable. An unpainted aluminium greenhouse will gradually oxidise producing fine grey powder forms on the surface of the greenhouse. This is the aluminium's natural self protection and it does not harm the greenhouse. Oxidisation occurs quicker in areas of high pollution or in coastal areas.

    BASE PLINTH: The base plinth makes installation much easier. It can be placed on any flat and level surface incuding soil, gravel, concrete or paving slabs.

    BASE ANCHORS: Base anchor pegs are provided at each corner to fix the base plinth into the ground. The base anchors can also be set in concrete. If your greenhouse is sited on concrete or slabs it is advisable to fix the base plinth down. In less sheltered locations it is advisable to install the greenhouse on a concrete or paving slab base and to secure it in place with suitable fixings.

    HORTICULTURAL GLASS: Horticultural glass is the traditional glass for greenhouse glazing and it remains a cost effective option. Although brittle glass is also rigid and it strengthens the aluminium frame. Glass is also heavy which helps to resist wind. Horticultural glass is normally supplied in small panes up to 24" x 24". Because of this size limitation the glass panes are overlapped.

    LENGTH AND WIDTH: In the SIZES & PRICES chart the first dimension listed is the width and the second dimension is the length. The width refers to the angled gable wall. All sizes quoted are the external greenhouse sizes unless stated otherwise.

    TOUGHENED GLASS: Toughened glass is the best glazing material for use in greenhouses. It is around 6 times stronger than normal glass so it is less likely to break and when it does break toughened glass breaks into harmless small pieces. Toughened glass strengthens the aluminium frame and it is heavy which helps to resist wind. Full height toughened glass is supplied in larger sizes than horticultural glass with no overlapping glass.

    PVC BAR CAPPING: Traditionally greenhouse glass is secured in place using stainless steel or galvanised glazing clips. PVC bar capping is neater, stronger and easier to clean. The standard glazing clips are replaced with full length PVC strips which hold the glass along the full length. Only available with full size toughened glass, the PVC bar capping cannot be fitted with overlapping glass.

    VENTILATION: Additional ventilation will improve the air circulation through the greenhouse for better growing results. Automatic openers react to heat to ensure that in hot weather the window will ventilate in your absence. A low level louvred ventilator will provide a healthy air flow through the greenhouse to ensure improved growing conditions and better crops. You should consider which plants you may grow because some plants such as alpines require more ventilation than others.

    HEATERS: We offer a huge range of heaters and whatever your specific heating requirements we have a heater to do the job. Electric heaters normally require a standard domestic 13 amp electricity supply. Propane gas heaters require ventilation when in use. A 3kw heater provides heating for a greenhouse up to 8'x12' or frost protection for a greenhouse up to 10'x15' in normal site conditions. Heating requirements vary greatly with less heat required in a sheltered location or a lean to and more heat required in Scotland than in Southern England. Wooden greenhouses are normally cheaper to heat than aluminium greenhouses.
