Taking greenhouses a step further...

GREENHOUSES

Frost Greenhouses are pragmatic, function well and are designed to look attractive in the garden. We have listed the most important features below so that you can see what makes our structures so successful:

Hinges, handles, stays etc.

All our hinges, door and window furniture components are made from stainless steel or nickel plated brass which will not tarnish or be affected by the weather.

Our Guttering and roof capping.

Guttering and glass capping strips are made from powder coated heavy duty aluminium.

Sloping cills.  

All internal and external surfaces in Frost Greenhouses are sloped to ensure water runoff by preventing water collecting on the framework.

Frost Construction.

Frost Greenhouses, cloches and compost bay doors are made using traditional joinery methods out of finest dark red Maranti. An excellent UK government approved durable hardwood selected for its quality and longevity.

Roof openers.

Automatic roof openers are essential in the greenhouse to prevent plants, especially seedlings, overheating. 50% of our Standard Greenhouse roof opens automatically to control the heat build up on hot summer days by letting hot air out.

To let cool air in, there are two large windows on automatic openers and, in addition, the remaining two windows can be opened manually.

Our Plant staging.

Frosts uniquely designed staging folds down to create clear space for growing plants from ground level, or, to enable the enlarged space to be used for other purposes throughout the year.

 

Cloches.

Our cloches, useful for hardening off tender plants in spring and the traditional place to grow compact fruit, vegetables and strawberries are very sturdily made for longevity.

Composting.

The greenhouse, combined with a good set of composting bays converting waste vegetation into good fertiliser is a metaphor for the natural cycle—a must have for the gardener.

We supply traditional boarded fronts with side channels

coloured to match your greenhouse which fit between the brick walls of each compost bay.

Finials.

We finish off our greenhouse roofs with traditional finials, a simple but elegant flourish that completes the aesthetic of the structure.

Glass.

Toughened safety glass is used throughout as standard but should you have any special requirements we would be happy to discuss them with you.

Standard colours.

We have our own range of carefully chosen, traditional colours in micro-porous stain and paint finishes but can also colour match to your own requirements .
