Aluminium
An aluminium-framed greenhouse remains the most popular choice of greenhouse among gardeners. Aluminium is an excellent choice for a domestic greenhouse frame and offers different benefits to the gardener, compared to a wooden greenhouse equivalent. Perhaps the most noteworthy merit of an aluminium greenhouse is that it requires very little upkeep. Aluminium greenhouses, especially if powder coated, are very long lasting and simple to keep clean. A simple hose down in the winter can restore it to almost new - rather like cleaning your car - except with a greenhouse once a year is enough!
Green is the most popular colour choice of colour for powder coating aluminium greenhouses. A 'green' greenhouse blends in with most garden settings. aluminium greenhouses are also noted for thier strength. Look first at growhouse and you will see that no other aluminium greenhouse compares for quality, strength and price. Many cheaper greenhouses, and in some instances more expensive brands, require cross bracing to make the greenhouse rigid. Not the Growhouse - this is British engineering at its best. The frames are powder coated in green as standard.
Glass
All of our greenhouses come glazed in toughened safety glass as standard. Each glass panel is a full length pane with no ugly overlapping panes of the glass like on cheaper models. The glass is retained by aluminium capping and stainless steel screws, no ugly chips or plastic cappings that deteriorate over time.
Fixings
The fittings are stainless steel being suitable for use with aluminium due to thier resitance to corrosion by the aluminium itslef and extreme weather conditions. The greenhouse comes complete with high capacity green powder coated aluminium gutters and down pipes. The down pipes are compatible with standard rainwater fittings enabling you to easliy feed into your water butts.
Ventilation
The 6x6 greenhouse comes complete with one roof vent and two side wall vents as standard, this creates excellent air circulation within your greenhouse.
Optional Extras
Side and Roof vents (in addition to those shown on the plans for your particular model). Staging and shelving to either or both sides. Louvre vents to provide additional ventiliation. Automated roof vent openers may be substituted for manual openers.
