We are committed to Low Prices.
If you find any of our products on the price promise pages advertised, and in stock and immediately available, at any of our competitors we will endeavour to match the price.
Product Code: ELI-WIN-4
The Windsor 4ft wide x 4ft lean to greenhouse is the smallest in the range and benefits from a lower ridge height, perfect if you want to locate it next to a fence, garage, shed or against a similar structure with a low roofline.
As with all greenhouses in the Elite range, there are no concerns regarding maintenance. The frame is rigid aluminium that won't rust or warp and can be powder coated in a number of colours or left as silver milled aluminium.
The single sliding door that smoothly opens can be fitted at either gable end and a roof vent is also standard, extremely important if you want good air circulation during the warmer months.
An aluminium gutter is already in place, adding strength and allowing you to fit the optional rainwater collection kit. The water can then be stored in a barrel ready for re-cycling to thirsty plants.
Bar capping not only provides a nice decorative feature, it secures the glazing more effectively.
Glazing is your decision, horticultural, polycarbonate or toughened, although if the lean to is fitted over a doorway there is a legal requirement to choose the latter.
Optional accessories let you personalise your lean to, installing extras that fine tune it to your needs. The best selling Elite automatic roof vent opener for example will save you the trouble and closing the vent each day and will be a boon if you go holiday or are away for any length of time.
Staging and shelves are an excellent idea if you love propagating and growing plants, but a base is essential. You can build one yourself from bricks or slabs but an Elite base is a smart purchase since it's made from a high quality alloy and can be powder coated the same colour as the frame.

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.
See our handy details page here for more information on powder coating options.
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. 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.
Please Note: Bar Capping is NOT suitable for use with horticultural glass. But is recommended for use with single sheet toughened and polycarbonate glazing.
Option 5 > Additional Rear Single Door?
The Windsor comes with one sliding door as standard. This can be fitted into either gable end.
If you want to fit a second sliding door to the other gable end then please select from the following rear single door options, you can also choose to have Bar Capping.
