Construction
This greenhouse uses premium polycarbonate panels, pre cut with uniform profiles that simply slide into the aluminium framework for straightforward assembly. The dual layer roof panels work alongside crystal clear side panels to provide optimal growing conditions while protecting plants from harmful UV rays, and the whole structure is completely shatterproof, fracture proof and resistant to rust.
Treatment & Guarantee
All polycarbonate panels are fully UV protected and come with a 5 year limited warranty. The greenhouse is completely maintenance free, with rust resistant aluminium components that require no painting or treating, and snow load testing to 75kg/m² confirms its ability to withstand heavy winter weather.
Doors & Windows / Security
User friendly access is provided through wide double doors featuring a low threshold for easy entry, even when carrying equipment or plants. The doors include a magnetic catch and padlock fixing (padlock not supplied) to keep valuable tools secure, while three manually operated roof vents let you regulate temperature and humidity for optimal growing conditions.
Assembly Information
The sliding panel assembly system makes this greenhouse remarkably easy to construct. All panels are pre cut with uniform profiles that simply slot into the aluminium frame without complicated procedures, though the greenhouse must be fixed to a solid, level base and has no floor included.

Optional Upgrades
