Description
A tremendous enhancement for your garden, The Elite Thyme 6 6ft x 12ft Greenhouse is also a bountiful place to cultivate many different plants.
Looking equally as appealing on a dwarf wall or freestanding, the sturdy rot and rust proof frame is maintenance free. A protective powder coating can be applied in a colour that complements both the structure and its surroundings.
The interior is both spacious and filled with brightness from toughened glass that has very good light transmission or polycarbonate which is more opaque but disperses light more evenly and is a better insulator. Colour bar capping can be fitted to seal and secure the glazing.
Wheel barrows and wheelchairs will find access easy through double doors that have such a low threshold and a support plate. Extra sliding doors can be fitted at the far end if required to maximize accessibility.
Optimum growing conditions owe much to effective ventilation that controls temperature and humidity, that's why this well appointed greenhouse has two roof vents and two five blade louvres. There is an option to introduce more and add automatic openers if necessary.
Although there is already a diamond shelf fitted at the rear, more staging is available along with many more accessories including heaters, water butts, a collection kit to recycle rainwater and attractive roof cresting.

Option 2 > Choose Your Greenhouse Glass
We offer two different types of glazing: single sheet Toughened Glass or 6mm Polycarbonate Glazing.
Please Note: Greenhouse glass images below are for guidance only.
with Single Sheet Toughened Glass
Toughened to British Standard Class 6206 Grade A and European Standard EN12150 for maximum light and extra safety. All toughened glass models in this range utilise full sheet glass in the roof and side walls. This makes for a much cleaner line with no build up of moss or algae where the sheets of glass would normally overlap.
with 6mm Polycarbonate Glazing
As well as the safety element it is a superb insulator, with the air trapped between the inner and outer skin acting as a mini double glazing unit. This will reduce winter heating costs. To aid growing polycarbonate defracts the sun's rays twice as it passes through the twinwall. This effect disperses the light far more evenly around the greenhouse. Supplied in a full sheet format and offers a more opaque appearance.
Option 3 > Bar Capping?
Bar capping is a continuous strip glazing system used instead of glazing clips, this gives a far neater streamlined appearance. It's made from PVC and is UVI treated.
For a more detailed explanation of what bar capping is, see our handy Bar Capping Guide here.
