This 3x2 softwood cold frame is a simple way to harden off plants before they go out for good. It measures 1020mm wide and 810mm deep, with a low 380mm profile that tucks against a greenhouse or fence.
The frame uses 19mm thick timber, pressure treated against rot and left in a natural finish. Both lids open on their own, and each lid stay offers two height settings for controlling airflow.
It arrives flat-packed for home assembly.

A solid base is the backbone of any greenhouse. You might think skipping this step saves time, but trust me?I've seen plenty of greenhouses fail because of poor foundations. A dodgy base causes more headaches than you'd believe.
What happens with a bad base? Glass cracks. Doors jam. The structure twists. Water pools where it shouldn't. And fixing these problems costs way more than doing it right first time.

The best position for a greenhouse in the UK is south-facing with the ridge running east to west. Keep at least 2 metres from buildings and trees, on level ground with good drainage. A south-facing 6x8 greenhouse runs 3-5 degrees C warmer than the same model facing north.
