Everything you need to know before ordering
Answers to the most common questions about our glass greenhouse accessories.
Everything on this page is made for our aluminum and tempered glass range: The Retreat, The Cottage, The Residence, The Manor and The Estate. The parts use the same frame profiles, seals and fasteners as the original build, so nothing needs adapting. Accessories for the polycarbonate range are listed separately.
No. The glass models are fixed structures and cannot be lengthened after assembly, so choose your size at the outset. You can still add roof windows, extra sliding doors, gutters and curtains at any time. Only the polycarbonate range is modular.
It uses a sealed wax cylinder that expands as the air warms and contracts as it cools, pushing the vent open and pulling it shut on its own. No wiring, no batteries, nothing to plug in. It typically starts opening around 68 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit and is fully open by roughly 86 degrees, which keeps the greenhouse from overheating while you are away. A storm-proof version holds the vent against sudden gusts on exposed sites.
Manual roof vent windows, rain gutters and downpipes, the anchoring base kit, glazing seals, all fasteners and an illustrated assembly manual come with every glass greenhouse, not sold as add-ons. The items on this page are upgrades and additions, not missing parts.
No. Common household tools are enough for every accessory: a screwdriver, a wrench set and a cordless drill. Fixings are supplied and each item comes with its own instructions.
Accessories ordered at the same time as a greenhouse travel on the same pallet whenever possible. Ordered on their own, they ship separately by parcel or freight depending on size. Shipping is free and fully insured to the 48 contiguous states either way, and tracking is included.
