Horticultural Glass

This is standard greenhouse glass with 2' x 2' panes that overlap and join with S clips. This glass breaks into shards.

Recommended! Toughened Glass is much stronger than Horticultural glass and won't crack. If it does break it disintegrates into hundreds of small pieces.

Polycarbonate Glazing

Polycarbonate Glazing is ideal for family gardens where safety is the No 1 priority. It's virtually unbreakable and won't shatter.

The 4ft wide 4x14 Elite Kensington Lean to greenhouse is a quality lean-to made right here in Britain. Customise the Kensington with the many options available with this greenhouse, from different colour finishes to various staging and shelving options available below.

The Elite Kensington 4ft x 14ft lean-to will give you plenty of space to bring on seedlings and grow salad, herbs and vegetables all year round as well as being a pleasant place to relax. The door on the Kensington can be fitted on either end of the greenhouse or even in the middle, making it easy to fit in with the space you have.

The 6mm twin wall polycarbonate glazing gives awesome insulation as the panels have silvered edges meaning that they are completely sealed. Because they are sealed they will not fog up inside with condensation. Of course polycarbonate is the safest glazing of all and is ideal for family gardens, schools and nurseries where children are running around. We recommend adding the optional Elite Bar Capping to polycarbonate glazed greenhouses as it further windproofs the greenhouse by holding the polycarbonate firmly in the frame

This Kensington 4 x 12 has 1 opening roof vent and 1 louvre window vent for ventilation, a smooth single sliding door and integral gutters to collect rain water. A 4ft Extruded alloy shelf is also included.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What base would be best for my Greenhouse?

    For your greenhouse to thrive, it needs a solid foundation. Here are our top picks:

    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!

  • How is the greenhouse packaged?

    Now, this depends on what type you've chosen:

    • Ordered horticultural glass? It'll come neatly boxed up.
