Know before you buy
Yes, the greenhouse is engineered for year-round use with a reinforced cross-roof truss and cross-corner bracing. It is rated to handle snow loads of up to 25 lbs/ft² and wind speeds of up to 76 mph.
The 10mm twin-wall polycarbonate provides superior insulation compared to single-pane glass, helping to maintain stable internal temperatures for your plants. Additionally, the material is UV-protected and significantly more impact-resistant than glass.
The four roof vents included with the kit are manually operated. You will need to open and close them as needed to regulate airflow and temperature inside the structure.
The kit includes the heavy-duty aluminum frame, polycarbonate panels, an anchoring system, and a drainage kit with integrated rain gutters. You will need to provide your own basic hand tools for assembly.
Yes, the sliding double doors feature a magnetic latch and a built-in key lock. This allows you to keep the greenhouse securely closed when not in use.
While the kit includes an anchoring system, you should install the greenhouse on a level, solid surface such as a concrete slab, a pressure-treated wood frame, or a gravel pad to ensure stability and proper drainage.
