Elite Low Threshold Greenhouse Base
The Low Threshold Base is unique to Elite Greenhouses. It allows you easy access with wheelbarrows and wheelchairs without having to build a ramp. No more tripping over a greenhouse base when carrying plant trays as the entry is at ground level.
5 Slat Diamond Staging
The Diamond shelving and staging are designed for Elite greenhouses. They are durable, long-lasting, and supported by cantilever bracing, eliminating the need for legs. This design provides space underneath for growing plants, storing pots, and wheelchair accessibility. Both can be color-coded to match your greenhouse.

Frequently Asked Questions

Paving Slabs: A classic choice! They're easy to lay and provide excellent drainage.
Concrete Base: Want something ultra-sturdy? A concrete base is your go-to option. It's long-lasting and provides a super-level surface.
Decking: Yes, you can use decking! Just make sure it's robust and as flat as a pancake.
Remember, a great base sets the stage for years of happy gardening. So take your time and get it right - your future plants will thank you!
