Sometimes your property layout makes it impossible to place a full-sized greenhouse in the middle of a garden or yard. Or you may just like the look of a greenhouse flush up against your home. Either way, the Halls Silverline Lean-to Greenhouse is the perfect choice for a complete glasshouse which will fit into almost any area. These structures are made with the same quality and durability as other Halls greenhouses, but with a pleasing appearance (including attractive curved eaves) which will look “just right” against any building.
An in-depth look at these Silverline models:
Size and Detailing: Just because these glasshouses aren’t “free-standing” models, that doesn’t mean you have to compromise on size, as the three available Lean-tos are just as big as many regular greenhouses: 6 x 8, 6 x 10 and 6 x 12. The smaller model has one roof vent, while the larger ones each have two; a nice feature of the Silverline is a sliding door which can be positioned on either side, giving you total flexibility in deciding how to position the structure. These models have built-in front gutters, with downpipes included so that the water can run into a water butt.
Frames and Base: There’s no surprise when it comes to the frames and base of the Silverline. The same materials and choices which are available for most other Halls greenhouses are seen in these models: rust-free aluminum frames in your selection of green powder coating or natural silver, and an optional base made from galvanized steel (available in green or silver) which lets you put the structure right onto concrete or slabs to improve its overall rigidity and height. There’s a ten-year guarantee on the frame and optional base.
Glazing: It’s the same story for the glazing choices available for the Silverline Lean-to; the usual Halls options of either standard greenhouse horticultural glazing (3mm with 2 x 2 panes) or long pane toughened glazing (also 3mm) that meets the British BS6206A standard. The former is fine in most cases; the latter is more wind-resistant and also will break into hundreds of tiny pieces instead of dangerous shards if broken. The curved eaves are fashioned from acrylic which is UV resistant, so it won’t discolour.
Options: Aside from the base previously mentioned, great options include an automated roof vent opener, which gauges the temperature inside the greenhouse and opens (or closes) the vent when things get too hot or too cold for your plants, flowers and seedlings. A five-slat louvre vent which replaces a side pane for extra ventilation can also be ordered, along with an automatic opener if you so desire. Other options from Halls include small and large paraffin heaters which can run uninterrupted inside the structure for anywhere from 16 hours to seven days, an irrigation system, and a wide variety of shelving, staging, seed stands and other accessories.
A huge, free-standing greenhouse may look elegant on your property – but if you simply don’t have the space for it, you’re not losing out with the Halls Silverline Lean-to fixed to your home or apartment. It’s a wonderful solution to an often thorny problem.
