FAQs

What type of wood is used for construction?

Does the greenhouse come with a floor?

No, a floor is not supplied for the greenhouse section. It sits on a pressure-treated base rail, and you will need to prepare a suitable base.

How is the greenhouse ventilated?

Ventilation is provided by three roof windows, each fitted with an automatic Bayliss opener that opens and closes based on temperature changes.

Is the glass toughened?

Yes, the greenhouse is glazed with toughened glass for safety and durability.

What maintenance is required?

Regular maintenance includes reapplying a suitable wood preservative or top coat to protect the timber, cleaning the glass, and ensuring ventilation mechanisms are clear.

What are the exterior dimensions?

The exterior dimensions are Height: 223 cm, Width: 179 cm, and Depth: 476 cm.

Is shelving included?

No, shelving or benching is not included with the greenhouse section. These would need to be sourced separately.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Greenhouse becomes too hot

Ensure the automatic Bayliss openers on the roof windows are functioning correctly and are not obstructed. Open the single door for additional ventilation if needed.

Shed door is difficult to open/close

Check for any warping in the wood or obstructions. Ensure the hinges are properly aligned and lubricated. The pad bolt mechanism may require adjustment.

Wood finish is peeling or degrading

The base coat preservative is a primer. Apply a suitable exterior wood top coat as recommended in the care instructions. Reapply as needed based on environmental conditions.

Assembly instructions are unclear

Review the assembly instructions carefully. Look for online video guides for similar Shire products, or contact the manufacturer's customer support for clarification.
