Elite Low Threshold Greenhouse Base
The Low Threshold Base is unique to Elite Greenhouses. It allows you easy access with wheelbarrows and wheelchairs without having to build a ramp. No more tripping over a greenhouse base when carrying plant trays as the entry is at ground level.

Elite Greenhouses now have a handy door handle to make opening your greenhouse easy as well as a proper key lock for security in your garden or on the allotment.
Elite Integral Gutters
You’ll find proper gutters on Elite greenhouses rather than narrow channels. These are more effective at gathering up rainwater for your water butt and less likely to get blocked up with leaves.

The Diamond shelving and staging are designed for Elite greenhouses. They are durable, long-lasting, and supported by cantilever bracing, eliminating the need for legs. This design provides space underneath for growing plants, storing pots, and wheelchair accessibility. Both can be color-coded to match your greenhouse.

Frequently Asked Questions

What base would be best for my Greenhouse?

Paving Slabs: A classic choice! They're easy to lay and provide excellent drainage.

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
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.
