Product Code: ELI-CLAS-10










A greenhouse such as the Elite Classique that is 12ft wide will naturally have an impressive working and growing area, and that's before installing any of the large selection of optional accessories.
The aluminium frame will resist the worst of the British weather, it's very rigid, strong and will not rust and warp.
There are two roof vents fitted as standard together with two five blade louvres that create a refreshing flow of air during the summer. They can all be upgraded to open automatically and, in addition to the familiar green and silver, the frame can be powder coated with several other colours
If you are carrying unwieldy garden equipment you'll appreciate wide opening double sliding doors, inside there's a 8ft extruded shelf already in place. Light floods through the generous glazing that can be horticultural, toughened or polycarbonate.
To make the greenhouse your own, with fittings to your own preferences, choose from the huge selection of accessories.
There are many different types and sizes of shelving and staging if you enjoy sowing and propagating plants. Rainwater can be collected with a kit connected to the integral gutters, you may want to lay matting or fit a fly screen.
A partition will separate different areas of the greenhouse while other modifications can lower the threshold. For a final flourish why not fit crestings and a finial to the roof?

Select Your Options
Option 1 > Choose Your Frame Colour
Please select from the following ten frame colours. Milled Silver aluminium is pre-selected by default and is the standard option. However, powder coated frame options are also available at an additional cost.
Option 2 > Choose Your Greenhouse Glass
We offer three different types of glazing: 3mm Horticultural Glass which is pre-selected by default, but you can upgrade to single sheet Toughened Glass or 6mm Polycarbonate Glazing here.
As Horticultural Glass is included in your frame price it is a NO COST option. The additional cost of Toughened Glass or Polycarbonate Glazing is indicated below.
Please Note: Greenhouse glass images below are for guidance only.
Option 3 > Do I Need a Base?
Yes, quite simply you do. Greenhouse frames need to lip over a base (or upstand) which also allows the door to lip under the frame. The base also gives you the required height needed inside your greenhouse. Without a base your greenhouse would be 5ins too low.
Preformed Alloy Bases are available in either milled silver aluminium or powder coated to match your chosen frame colour. All Elite Supreme Bases come complete with a drop door option which gives a low threshold. Alternatively, you can build a brick base but you will need to be accurate with your measurements.
Option 4 > Bar Capping?
Bar capping is a continuous strip glazing system used instead of glazing clips, this gives a far neater streamlined appearance and helps to stop rainwater seeping through the glass seams. It's made from PVC and is UV treated for long term weatherproofing.
Please Note: Bar capping is NOT suitable for use with horticultural glass. It is only suitable for use with single sheet toughened and polycarbonate glazing.
Option 4 > Cresting & Finials
Crestings and finials are available in either a standard silver aluminium or any of the powder-coated colours chosen for your greenhouse frame. If required please tick the appropriate checkbox below to match the colour of the finials to your chosen greenhouse colour finish above.
Option 6 > Internal Partition with Double Doors
Would you like an Internal Partition? This option enables you to divide your greenhouse into 2 sections. This is ideal where you wish to create areas or zones for plants with differing needs.
Available in milled silver aluminium or powder coated coloured finish, complete with integral base and double doors. You can also choose to have Bar Capping and all the glazing options are available.
If you choose an Internal Partition you will need to tick 1 of the first 3 boxes below. You then add to your initial choice by ticking any other appropriate boxes. You may have to tick up to 3 check boxes. This is a complex option so please choose carefully!
We will contact to you to determine the final positioning of you partition.
Option 7 > Additional Rear Double Doors?
Having double doors at the rear of your Greenhouse is very convenient because you will be able to gain access from both ends and walk straight through your Greenhouse with ease.
Please select from the following rear double door options, you can also choose to have Bar Capping.
Option 8 > Delivery Options
Standard Delivery within Mainland England, Wales and Mainland Scotland is inclusive. Although, we can still deliver to northern and remote parts of Scotland as well as Northern and the Republic of Ireland at an additional cost, as per these delivery options.

Option 9 > Discuss with an Elite Technician
Accessories > Staging?
We offer 4ft and 6ft length aluminium staging (in silver or a powder coated finish) which allows extra workspace along the sides of your greenhouse. Purchase one set of staging to fit a certain area, or multiple sets (4ft + 6ft length) which can be used to fill a whole side or two of your greenhouse.
Alternatively, go with the more traditional wooden staging which is available in 4ft lengths, meaning that you will need 2 sets to fit an 8ft length of your greenhouse.
Accessories > Shelving?
By adding a shelf or two to your greenhouse, you'll have added workspace areas to store small tools, pots and seedlings. Each set of shelves comes complete with the necessary braces to install them to your Elite greenhouse frame.
You may decide to purchase both a 6ft and 4ft shelf kit to fit along the one full side (10ft length) of your greenhouse, or alternatively purchase two sets to create to have shelving along both sides.
Accessories > Ventilation?
Ventilation is essential for any greenhouse no matter the size to ensure that the humidity and temperature inside provides the best growing experience for your new plants.
Accessories > Heating?
Accessories > Water Systems?
