Made to Measure Double Glazed uPVC Greenhouse

Extend your growing season and provide valuable protection for delicate plants with our Made to Measure Double Glazed uPVC Greenhouse.

Unlike a conventional lightweight garden greenhouse, this premium greenhouse uses 28mm toughened double-glazed units together with durable uPVC frames, helping to retain heat and create a more controlled environment during colder weather.

Every greenhouse is made to measure, giving you the flexibility to create a greenhouse around your available garden space rather than being restricted to a handful of standard sizes.

A Double Glazed Greenhouse for Winter Growing

The major advantage of this greenhouse is its 28mm double glazing. The insulated sealed glass units provide considerably greater thermal protection than the single sheets of glass traditionally associated with garden greenhouses.

This makes the greenhouse particularly useful for gardeners who want to continue growing through colder periods or provide additional protection for plants that need to be kept away from freezing temperatures.

When combined with a suitable greenhouse heating system, the improved insulation can help retain warmth and reduce the amount of heat lost through the glazing.

Help Protect Frost-Sensitive Plants

Many plants can survive perfectly well outdoors during spring and summer but require additional protection when temperatures fall during the winter.

A double glazed greenhouse provides a useful environment for overwintering and protecting plants such as:

• Young and tender plants
• Frost-sensitive plants
• Citrus plants
• Pelargoniums and geraniums
• Tender herbs
• Seedlings and young plants
• Overwintering container plants
• Selected exotic and Mediterranean plants

Please note: double glazing improves insulation but does not guarantee that the greenhouse will remain frost-free. During prolonged or severe cold weather, an appropriate greenhouse heater may still be required for plants that must remain above a particular temperature.

Lower Heat Loss Than a Traditional Greenhouse

If you intend to heat a greenhouse during winter, insulation becomes particularly important.

The 28mm double-glazed sealed units help reduce heat loss through the sides of the greenhouse, making this design particularly attractive to gardeners who want to create a warmer growing environment without wasting as much of the heat being produced.

This can make a double glazed greenhouse a practical long-term choice for enthusiastic gardeners, plant collectors and anyone regularly overwintering valuable or delicate plants.

Made to Measure Greenhouse

Rather than forcing your garden to accommodate a standard greenhouse size, this system offers the flexibility of made-to-measure manufacture.

The dimensions and configuration can be designed around the space available, making it suitable for gardens where a conventional standard-size greenhouse may not fit efficiently.

Made-to-measure manufacture can also help make better use of:

• Narrow garden spaces
• Wide garden plots
• Patios and paved areas
• Spaces alongside garages
• Areas beside garden walls
• Existing greenhouse bases
• Replacement greenhouse locations

28mm Toughened Double Glazing

The greenhouse sides use 28mm toughened double-glazed units, providing a combination of thermal insulation, strength, safety and excellent visibility.

The wide glazed sections allow plenty of natural daylight into the greenhouse while maintaining the substantial feel of a modern double-glazed structure.

25mm Polycarbonate Greenhouse Roof

The roof is constructed using 25mm polycarbonate glazing, providing a lightweight yet durable roofing solution.

Multiwall polycarbonate helps diffuse natural daylight while also providing significantly better insulation than thin single-sheet greenhouse glazing.

Roof and Side Ventilation

Good ventilation remains important throughout the growing season, particularly as temperatures rise during spring and summer.

The greenhouse includes ventilation options that allow you to control airflow and temperature more effectively.

• Side Vent: Lockable ventilation for additional airflow
• Roof Vent: Allows warm air to escape from the upper part of the greenhouse

Using roof and side ventilation together can help maintain a healthier growing environment during warmer weather.

Strong uPVC Greenhouse Frames

The greenhouse is manufactured using durable uPVC profiles, providing a substantial, low-maintenance alternative to traditional timber greenhouse construction.

uPVC does not require the routine painting associated with timber frames and is easy to clean, making it particularly suitable for a greenhouse intended for long-term use.

Lockable Greenhouse Door

A strong entrance door with heavy-duty hinges and a lockable handle provides convenient access while allowing the greenhouse to be secured when required.

The door position and overall greenhouse configuration can be selected to suit the available space and intended layout.

Decorative Cresting and Finials

Decorative roof cresting and finials give the greenhouse a more substantial and traditional appearance, helping it become an attractive garden feature rather than simply a functional growing structure.

125mm Regency Guttering

The greenhouse incorporates 125mm Regency guttering to collect rainwater from the roof.

The collected water can be directed away from the greenhouse or potentially connected to suitable water storage equipment for use around the garden.

A Greenhouse for Serious Gardeners

This greenhouse is particularly suited to gardeners looking for something more substantial than a conventional seasonal greenhouse.

The combination of double glazing, insulated polycarbonate roofing, ventilation and made-to-measure construction creates a versatile growing space that can be used throughout much more of the year.

It is suitable for:

• Growing vegetables
• Starting seedlings earlier in the season
• Overwintering delicate plants
• Protecting plants from frost
• Growing tomatoes and other greenhouse crops
• Plant propagation
• Growing tender and exotic plants
• Creating a heated winter greenhouse

Winter Greenhouse Heating

For plants that must remain above a particular minimum temperature during winter, a suitable thermostatically controlled greenhouse heater can be used in conjunction with the insulated greenhouse.

The benefit of the double-glazed construction is that more of the heat generated can be retained within the greenhouse compared with a conventional single-glazed structure.

This provides greater flexibility for gardeners who want to protect valuable plants or continue growing during colder months.

Delivery

Standard delivery is normally available within approximately 2–4 weeks, subject to the selected specification and current manufacturing schedule.
