Setup, Compatibility & Care
This greenhouse arrives flat-packed with all necessary hardware and a detailed assembly manual. Before assembly, it is essential to prepare a level foundation—such as a concrete slab or treated timber frame—to ensure the doors and windows operate correctly.
Care instructions involve periodic inspection of the bitumen felt roof for damage and applying a wood preservative every few years to maintain the integrity of the pressure-treated timber. Keep the glass panels clean to maximize light penetration, and ensure the interior is well-ventilated during warmer months to prevent excessive humidity.
