Product Code: ELI-WIN-4
Description
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.

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.
with 3mm Horticultural Glass
Horticultural 3mm float glass as traditionally used in greenhouses. This is the standard minimum specification and is INCLUDED with your frame choice.
Provided in traditional panes which are supported using overlapping clips. This type of glass isn't recommended if you have children or pets around due to the more fragile nature.
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 > 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.
No Alloy Base Required
Select this option if you intend to build your own Brick Base. Please note that the number of bricks used in the base height will result in a higher step-over into the greenhouse. Overlapping cills demonstrate a need for accuracy when building a brick base.
with Milled SILVER Alloy Base Frame
The perfect match to you milled silver aluminium frame.
with Matching Powder Coated Colour Alloy Base Frame
Colour coated to match your chosen coloured frame.
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.
