Aluminium Greenhouses

Why choose our aluminium greenhouses?

An aluminium greenhouse is perfect for the avid, green-fingered gardener who’s after a strong and durable metal greenhouse, ideal for getting a head start with your plants and protecting them from frost and wind.

A greenhouse is a haven for your plants, seeds & bulbs, allowing you to get ahead with planting seedlings and making the most of the light in your garden. An aluminium greenhouse can be a safe spot for warm-weather plants too, such as tomatoes, peppers and chillis. Aluminium greenhouses are low maintenance, weather proof, and corrosion resistant to withstand the elements!

Benefits of our aluminium greenhouses

Heat retention

The glass structure of a greenhouse is excellent at making the most of the natural light in your garden and keeping the warmth inside the greenhouse without using any electricity whatsoever! It’s the perfect place to start your plants in pots, keeping them warm and cosy when the weather outside isn’t ideal.

Weather resistant

Aluminium greenhouses are lightweight but very sturdy, making them a good low-maintenance greenhouse option to withstand weather. As aluminium is naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, your greenhouse will carry on looking great whilst standing up to wind, rain, snow, and sleet.

Long-lasting

Aluminium greenhouses don’t need a huge amount of maintenance, but it’s always a good idea to get a head start on the growing season and add greenhouse cleaning to your list of garden jobs! Use a glass cleaner or soap with a sponge to clean your glass panels and make sure that your plants get the best chance at light this Spring!

FAQs

Are aluminium greenhouses suitable for all climates?

Aluminium greenhouses can withstand climates and are a highly versatile greenhouse to have, as it retains heat from sunlight in winter and makes the most of it in summer. On particularly warm days, it’s worth opening the door (or windows, if your metal greenhouse has them) to provide a bit of airflow.

Do aluminium greenhouses require a lot of maintenance?

Aluminium greenhouses are naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, so maintenance is mostly cleaning-based. Keep the glass clean to maximise light and keep things inside nicely organised with a potting bench or garden storage.

Can aluminium greenhouses withstand strong winds?

If your aluminium greenhouse is installed and anchored properly, it shouldn’t have a problem standing up to wind. Your greenhouse should be in a spot that gets plenty of light, but popping it against a wall or fence for a bit of shelter will provide some shelter from wind.

How long does an aluminium greenhouse last?

It really depends on where you place it and the weather it faces. Under ideal conditions, an aluminium greenhouse could easily last for years, if not decades!

Does aluminium greenhouse rust?

Despite being lightweight, aluminium structures are incredibly durable. They can brave through all sorts of weather without rusting or rotting.

How to clean an aluminium greenhouse?

Start by cleaning your greenhouse, inside and out. Use warm, soapy water and work your way from top to bottom. Remember to sweep the floor and clean any pots before bringing your plants back in. Try a glass cleaner for a streak-free finish.

How do you insulate an aluminium greenhouse?

Thanks to their self-insulating properties, greenhouses create their own warmth using sunlight. You can give them a helping hand by making sure that it’s in a sunny spot, and make sure the windows and door are properly sealed against wind.
