FAQs

What types of clips are included in this pack?

This pack includes 50 galvanised W Clips and 50 stainless steel Z Clips.

What panel thicknesses are these clips compatible with?

These clips are designed for glass or polycarbonate panels that are 3mm or 4mm thick.

Can these clips be used on wooden greenhouse frames?

These clips are primarily designed for aluminium greenhouse frames. While they might be adaptable, their intended fit is with aluminium channels.

How do I know if I need a W clip or a Z clip?

W clips are used to hold glass panes directly against the greenhouse frame channel. Z clips are used to secure the overlap between two adjacent glass or polycarbonate panels.

Are these clips easy to install?

Yes, they are designed for straightforward installation without the need for specialized tools.

Will these clips rust over time?

The Z clips are made of stainless steel, offering excellent rust resistance. The W clips are galvanised, providing good corrosion resistance for extended use.

How many clips should I use per panel?

The number of clips needed depends on the size of the panel and the expected environmental conditions. Generally, clips should be spaced evenly along the edges and overlaps to ensure a secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Clips do not fit securely.

Ensure you are using the correct clip type (W or Z) for the application. Verify that the panel thickness is 3mm or 4mm and that the frame channel is clean and free of obstructions.

Glass panel feels loose after installation.

Recheck the placement of the W clips against the frame. Ensure the clip is fully engaged in the frame channel and gripping the glass edge firmly. Consider adding more clips if the panel is particularly large.

Corrosion observed on clips.

While made of rust-resistant materials, prolonged exposure in harsh conditions can lead to minor surface rust. Clean the affected area with a soft brush. For significant corrosion, consider replacing the clip with a new one from the pack.
