Greenhouse Designs
Our greenhouse designs accomodate snowloads of between 30 to 50 lbs per square foot and winds up to 95 miles per hour. Our heavy duty frames ensure your greenhouse is structurally engineered to beyond industry standards. Galvanized steel trusses are used in larger sized greenhouses for the added strength required.
Greenhouse Designs, Glazing - Choose single or double glass, 6mm twin wall polycarbonate or our new improved 16mm 5 wall polycarbonate which is the ultimate in greenhouse efficiency.
16mm 5 Wall Polycarbonate - The light transmission is slightly lower at 62%. The benefit is an improved R value of 3.03 which is a 21% improvement over our previous 16mm thick triple wall polycarbonate. This means that a greenhouse glazed with our 5 wall polycarbonate will cost 21% less to heat than the previous triple wall polycarbonate glazing. In addition, the 5 wall polycarbonate is about 50% more efficient than insulated double glass, 10mm triple wall polycarbonate and 8mm 4 wall polycarbonate. It is approximately 80% more efficient than 6mm or 8mm twin wall polycarbonate. Arguably, this is the most energy efficient glazing material available in today's greenhouse market.
Greenhouse Designs, Frames - Our greenhouse frames are also designed to easily attach shelving and eye hooks for hanging baskets, allowing you to maximize your greenhouse space and light. You won't have to worry about the weight collpasing roof bars in one of our greenhouses!
With our huge size selection, we can deliver just about any size greenhouse to you. We have the largest selection of standard sizes available, as our glazing bars are spaced every 2 feet apart (approximate measurement). Any of our greenhouse models can be built in 2 foot increments starting from 2 feet wide and 2 feet long! This ensures that we can deliver to you hobby greenhouse kits, mid size greenhouses and commercial greenhouses! Just let us know the size you want. Should special sizing be required, custom greenhouse and lean-to sizes are welcome!
A pre hung premium lockable storm door with an adjustable tempered glass window and screen is included with all greenhouses. Commercial doors, double doors and extra doors are also available.
All greenhouse plants require ventilation. In addition to the screened door, all of our greenhouses include extra large 20" x 48" roof vents with automatic solar powered roof vent openers. The size of the greenhouse will dictate the number of roof vents included. The roof vent openers can also be operated manually.
Designed to maximize space for all greenhouse gardeners, the standard height of the side walls is 5'6". Plenty of room for tall gardeners, tall plants and hanging baskets! Compare this to 4' side walls found on many imported greenhouse models.
Best of all, your greenhouse is designed to last for a lifetime of gardening. Aluminum does not rust, is virtually maintenance free and we only use stainless steel fasteners. Just ask any of our customers who have already purchased one of our greenhouses!
