About the Norhage Tre 300 Wooden Greenhouse
Norhage builds greenhouses in Norway for Nordic winters. The Tre 300 is their freestanding model, and it looks different to most timber greenhouses. Instead of a straight apex roof, it uses a Gothic arch made from solid plywood ribs. That curve sheds snow rather than holding it. It is why the frame is rated to a 280 kg/m² snow load and 25 m/s wind. The frame is impregnated Swedish pine, pressure treated at the factory, so it does not need annual painting.
Most wooden greenhouses on this page are glazed in glass. The Tre 300 is glazed in 6mm twin-wall polycarbonate instead. The twin wall traps a layer of air, so it holds heat better than single glass and will not shatter. You can upgrade to 10mm or 16mm polycarbonate for colder plots. Every Tre 300 is 3 metres wide with a 2300mm (7ft 7") ridge. You work standing up, with beds down both sides and a path between.
Five lengths cover most gardens, from a 4-metre starter house up to a 12-metre plot for serious growing. Prices run from £2,399 to £4,850. Compare the wider wooden greenhouses range, or the glass Swallow and Palmako ranges if you prefer a glasshouse. Every Tre 300 comes with free UK mainland delivery, a 5-year frame guarantee and a 10-year guarantee on the polycarbonate.
Why We Chose This Range
"Most timber greenhouses use glass and a straight roof. The Norhage is different. The Gothic arch sheds snow, and the twin-wall polycarbonate holds heat far better than a single pane. It is built for a proper winter, and you can feel that in the frame. For anyone growing through the cold months on an exposed plot, it is the timber house I would pick."
Matt, Founder of Greenhouse StoresMatt's Tip: Get the base right first
The Tre 300 needs a level, solid base. Concrete or slabs, laid flat and square along the whole 3-metre width. Build the base before delivery, so you can start the day the kit arrives. A twisted base makes the arches hard to line up.
Matt's Tip: 6mm, 10mm or 16mm glazing?
The standard 6mm polycarbonate suits most gardens. Choose the 10mm or 16mm upgrade if your plot is exposed or you grow through winter. The thicker sheet holds more heat and stiffens the roof. It costs a little more, but it pays back on the coldest nights.
Matt's Pick: Norhage Tre 300 10x20
Best For: the family grower who wants room without filling the garden
Why I Recommend It: the 6-metre length gives eighteen square metres, with beds down both sides and a path wide enough for a barrow. It is the size most people settle on.
Price: from £3,349

Frequently asked questions
-
What is the Norhage Tre 300 made from?
It is built from impregnated Swedish pine with solid plywood Gothic arches. The pine is pressure treated at the factory, so it resists rot without annual painting.
-
Is the glazing glass or polycarbonate?
It is glazed in 6mm twin-wall polycarbonate as standard. You can upgrade to 10mm or 16mm for colder or more exposed plots. Twin-wall holds heat better than a single pane and will not shatter.
-
How long is the warranty?
The frame has a 5-year guarantee and the polycarbonate a 10-year guarantee. Both apply when the greenhouse is built to the instructions.
-
What base does it need?
A level, solid base of concrete or paving slabs. Grass and bare soil are not enough, because the frame needs an even bearing all round. Get it down before the delivery date.
-
Is installation included?
No, the Tre 300 is supplied flat-packed for self-assembly. Delivery to the UK mainland is free, within five weeks of order.
-
Will it stand up to snow and wind?
Yes, it is rated to a 280 kg/m² snow load and 25 m/s wind. The Gothic arch sheds snow, and the frame is engineered for Nordic winters.
