FAQs

What is the main purpose of these clips?

Their primary function is to attach insulation or shading materials to aluminium greenhouse glazing bars, while also creating a beneficial air gap.

How do I attach fabric to the clips?

Push the fabric, fleece, or netting through the pointed end of the clip once it is secured in the glazing bar.

Can these clips be used on any type of greenhouse?

They are best suited for aluminium greenhouses with standard glazing bars. Compatibility with other frame types may vary.

What does the 40mm spacer refer to?

The clip design creates approximately a 40mm gap between the greenhouse glass and the material you are attaching, which enhances insulation.

Can I use these clips for something other than insulation?

Yes, they are also useful for attaching general shading materials like netting or fleece for plant protection.

How many clips are included in this pack?

This specific product variant includes 50 clips.

Are there other sizes available?

Yes, Gardening Naturally offers other pack sizes, such as 60, 80, and 100 clips.

Troubleshooting

Clip won't stay secured in glazing bar

Ensure the clip is fully inserted and turned correctly. Check if the glazing bar profile is compatible; some may require a tighter fit than this clip offers.

Material is not holding securely

Ensure the material is threaded through the pointed end correctly. For heavier materials, consider using the integrated tying hole with additional twine or string.

Clips feel loose after installation

Verify the correct size of your glazing bar. These clips are designed for a standard 40mm gap; variations in glazing bar dimensions might affect the tightness of the fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhances greenhouse insulation significantly.
  • Easy to install without tools.
  • Provides a useful option for tying materials.
  • Durable and designed for greenhouse conditions.
  • Helps manage temperature for better plant growth.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for aluminium greenhouse frames.
  • May require additional methods for very heavy materials.
  • Specific dimensions might not suit all glazing bar profiles.
  • A small number of clips may be needed for large areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, align the non-pointed end of the clip with the desired location on your aluminium greenhouse glazing bar. Gently push the clip into the bar and turn it to secure. Fabric, fleece, or netting can then be attached by pushing the material through the pointed end of the clip. For optimal performance, ensure the washer is placed on the smooth side down when securing materials.

Compatibility: These clips are specifically designed to fit standard aluminium greenhouse glazing bars. While they may fit other similar profiles, testing for a secure fit is recommended. They are not intended for use with wooden or PVC greenhouse frames without potential modification.

Care: Clean the clips with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Ensure they are dry before reattaching materials to prevent any potential corrosion or damage to greenhouse surfaces.
