The 4ft wide 4x16 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 16ft 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

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.
Elite Integral Gutters
You’ll find proper gutters on Elite greenhouses rather than narrow channels. These are more effective at gathering up rainwater for your water butt and less likely to get blocked up with leaves.
Elite Greenhouses
Elite Greenhouses have been made right here in the UK by the same family-run business for the last 60 Years. Using some of the strongest Aluminium profiles available, a wide range of Powder Coated Finishes as well as smart touches like Low Threshold Doors, innovative Glazing Bar Capping and Stainless Steel fixings throughout, you'd be hard-pressed to find better greenhouse anywhere!.
10 Year Warranty
Elite greenhouses come with a 10-year warranty on the greenhouse frame. This warranty covers any manufacturing defects in materials or workmanship. However, it does not cover glass or polycarbonate. The warranty is only valid if the greenhouse is assembled according to the provided instructions
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!
