What base would be best for my Greenhouse?

For your greenhouse to thrive, it needs a solid foundation. Here are our top picks: Paving Slabs: A classic choice! They're easy to lay and provide excellent drainage. Concrete Base: Want something ultra-sturdy? A concrete base is your go-to option. It's long-lasting and provides a super-level surface. Decking: Yes, you can use decking! Just make sure it's robust and as flat as a pancake. Remember, a great base sets the stage for years of happy gardening. So take your time and get it right - your future plants will thank you!

How is the greenhouse packaged?

The Frame and Base: Imagine long, slim parcels (shoe boxes, but longer) - that's how your greenhouse frame and base will arrive. We pack them snugly in sturdy cardboard boxes to keep everything safe and sound during their journey to you. Now, this depends on what type you've chosen: Ordered horticultural glass? It'll come neatly boxed up. Opted for full pane toughened glass? Each sheet will arrive individually wrapped for extra protection. We take extra care to ensure every piece of your green haven reaches you in perfect condition. It's like a jigsaw puzzle waiting to be put together!

Where will I find the Assembly Instructions?

The instructions will be in the box with your greenhouse frame.

The 6ft x 4ft Elite Thyme Dwarf Wall greenhouse with it`s 6ft 3" width is a stunning greenhouse with traditional looks and beautiful Victorian design features. The greenhouse is designed to sit on a 762mm high brick dwarf wall and looks stunning in all of the available colour finishes.

The Thyme Dwarf Wall 6x4 Greenhouse benefits from a sturdy high quality aluminium frame with bracing and strengthening on every other bar throughout. The double sliding doors have an integral door catch to keep the door shut in high winds or open when you need more ventilation. New features for 2013 include a door handle and a proper key lock for security. It features the Elite Low Threshold Base giving a safe and practical entry for you and all of your gardening bits and bobs.

The Elite Thyme has 12" wide glass panels that give a lovely traditional look and add enormous strength to the greenhouse. This is because there are more glazing bars in the sides and roof with a cantilever support on every other bar in the eaves and roof for added rigidity.

Elite toughened safety glass gives you peace of mind where children and pets are present and safety is top of the list. Toughened glass simply granulates if broken removing any danger of injury from shards of glass. This Elite Dwarf Wall Greenhouse 6 x 4 has 1 opening roof vent and 2 louvre vents for ventilation, a double sliding door with key lock and integral gutters to collect rain water.

When constructing a wall please only build your brick base once you have an official Elite base plan from Greenhouse Stores. Please note the minimum required wall height is 762mm.

Greenhouse Buyers Guide 2025

This comprehensive 2025 guide helps you choose the perfect greenhouse by exploring crucial factors from size and materials to optimal location and essential accessories.

Make an informed decision by understanding how to assess your needs, compare material pros and cons, and ensure proper ventilation and positioning for a thriving greenhouse.

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.

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.
