    The 8x4 Access Aluminium Large Coldframe is a great way to extend the growing season and protect your plants from harsh weather conditions. Perfect for use all year round, the Cold Frame can be placed directly onto the soil or on a raised base, providing shelter from strong winds and harsh weather conditions. In the spring, when temperatures start to rise, the Cold Frame can also be used to house tender young plants, acting as an intermediary stage between the warm conditions of a greenhouse and the cooler environment of a garden.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    • Can I choose which side the louvre and watering system go?

      Yes, you have flexibility in positioning these features. The watering system connection can be fitted on either end for Classic models, while the louvre vent typically fits on the left but can be adapted for the right side.

    • Does the mist spray affect the wall?

      The mist spray uses less water than natural rainfall would on the wall, so it shouldn't cause any issues. The greenhouse actually provides some protection to the wall from the elements.

    • Can I automate the watering?

      Absolutely! We offer a hose end timer that can automate your watering system, perfect for when you're away or busy.

    • How does the louvre vent work?

      The louvre vent is a clever, sun-powered device that doesn't require electricity. It uses an oil-filled cylinder that expands with heat to open the vent and contracts to close it as temperatures drop.

    • Is the greenhouse easy to build?

      Yes, our greenhouses are designed for easy assembly. We provide clear, comprehensive instruction booklets with step-by-step guides to make the process straightforward.

    • Do I need to fix the greenhouse to a wall?

      While walls are ideal for their heat-absorbing properties, it's not necessary. We offer glass-backed models for freestanding options if you don't have a suitable wall available.

    How to Prepare the Ground for a Greenhouse Base

    How to Prepare the Ground for a Greenhouse Base

    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.

    Best Position for a Greenhouse UK

    Best Position for a Greenhouse UK

    Placing your greenhouse in the right spot makes all the difference between thriving plants and disappointing results. As a greenhouse specialist who's spent 15 years helping UK gardeners optimise their growing spaces, I've seen first-hand how position affects everything from temperature regulation to plant health.

    Let me share what actually works in our unique British climate. The greenhouse position might seem like a minor detail, but it's one of those things that can make or break your growing success. I made this mistake myself when I first started - my poorly positioned greenhouse meant I was fighting an uphill battle with inadequate light and temperature fluctuations.
