What is the difference between the Greenhouse glass that comes with the greenhouse?
This question is asked of us all the time.
Buying a greenhouse is an important purchase, so you want to be sure you have taken everything into consideration before taking that final step.
At Lenehans we like to make things as easy as possible for you so that getting your new greenhouse is an enjoyable experience.
Below is a basic guide to the options you have when choosing your greenhouse:
Horticultural Glass
- Standard / Basic / Cheapest
- Perfect for sheltered area with no danger of kids playing around nearby
Safety / Toughened Glass
- Stronger glass
- If it breaks it breaks into tiny pieces not shards
- Heavy glass, so better at withstanding strong winds
- Clear glass
Polycarbonate
- Very strong glass, virtually unbreakable
- Similar material to plastic
- Light glass, should be in a sheltered area
- Not as clear as glass / slightly opaque
