Description
The Elite Classique greenhouse is a premium gardening structure designed for both amateur and professional gardeners seeking an expansive and functional growing space.
The spacious design allows for extensive plant cultivation, making it ideal for both hobbyists and professionals looking to maximise their growing potential. Internal partitions are a popular choice on the larger models, which create difference climate zones with alternative growing conditions. This also means that you can create a smaller space to heat through the winter, rather than heating the full greenhouse, or simply have two smaller greenhouses in one!
The Elite Classique Greenhouse stands out as an exceptional choice for those seeking a high-performance greenhouse that combines durability with ample growing space. Its thoughtful design features cater to both novice gardeners and seasoned horticulturists alike.
The Classique is available in unlimited lengths. Partitions are also available on request.
Base:
As an optional extra, Elite offer an integral base with dropped doors, or alternatively, you can build a brick base to the exact specification. The greenhouse can also be modified for a dwarf wall, contact us for details.
Doors:
The greenhouse is supplied with double doors, with a handle, lock and key.
Glass:
The greenhouse can be fitted with full sheet 4mm toughened safety glass, 3mm horticultural glass or 6mm polycarbonate. We recommend toughened safety glass for any properties with children and/or pets.
Roof Vents & Louvres:
The Supreme greenhouse has a minimum of two manual roof vents and two 5-blade louvres. The number increases with the size of greenhouse:
- 10ft & 12ft long with two roof vents, two 5-blade louvres
- 14ft with three roof vents, two 5-blade louvres
- 16ft, 18ft & 20ft long with four roof vents, two 5-blade louvres
Automatic Ventilation:
Automatic roof vent and louvre openers can also be added to your order. The automated openers will ensure that your vents open and close automatically, depending on the temperature, keeping your plants ventilated appropriately.
Shelving/Staging:
An 8ft extruded shelf is included as standard with the Classique model. Additional staging and shelving is available in aluminium, or any of the Elite powder-coated finishes. For the Classique, the 7-slat is recommended for the staging, and the 2-slat or 3-slat for the eye-level shelf, depending on preference.
Rainwater Collection:
The greenhouse is provided with integral gutters that collect rainwater from the roof, preventing runoff and allowing for efficient collection. To maximise the effectiveness of the integral gutters, we offer optional rainwater kits. The standard rainwater kit includes downpipes that connect directly to the integral gutters and collect rainwater into storage tanks or water butts. Also available is the ‘rainwater kit to one gutter’ option, allowing users to funnel rainwater from two separate gutters into a single downpipe, ensuring that both sides of the greenhouse contribute to a centralised storage system/water butt. It is important to note that this system can only be used at the rear of a greenhouse.
Bar Capping:
Bar capping is optional. It provides a stronger hold for the glass against the frame, plus the rubber fin makes for a better water seal and is a way of hiding the clips, providing a neater finish on your greenhouse. Bar capping can not be used on horticultural glass.
Powder Coating:
Greenhouses are supplied in aluminium as standard. However, Elite have a varied range of powder-coated colours to choose from; mocha, brown, graphite, white, olive, green, black, berry, stone and navy.
Cresting & Finials:
Cresting & Finials are used to enhance the overall aesthetic appeal. Cresting refers to ornamental ridge tiles or other decorative elements along the ridge of a roof, while finials are decorative ornaments typically found at the gable top. They can also serve as a deterrent against cats and birds. They are provided in aluminium as standard, or can be powder coated to match your greenhouse. Please see ‘Elite Cresting & Finials’ to add to your order.
