Other benefits of polycarbonate…

  • Will not film over after long exposure to sunlight.
  • Tough, practically shatterproof.
  • Maintains light transmission over years of use.
  • Hollow, twin-wall construction gives superior insulating capabilities for better heat retention
  • Virtually no UV penetration.
  • Highly flame resistant, with a flashpoint of 1,166˚F.
  • 10-year manufacturer’s warranty.

Base / Frame / Foundation

As a general rule, greenhouses are relatively light compared to their size and may blow over or suffer wind damage if not properly anchored. We’re proud to say, there’s nothing lightweight or flimsy about Horizon Structures’ large greenhouses for sale. They’re heavy and sturdy incorporating a robust 4×4 pressure-treated wood foundation ‘frame’ that keeps the structure upright, square, and solidly in place.

This extra strong foundation – or base frame – securely holds the structure together AND enables you to easily anchor it firmly to the ground for increased peace of mind.

The pressure treated wood also reduces (or eliminates) damage from dampness in the ground and insect infestations.

Siding and Framing

  • Stud walls and roof rafters are sturdy Southern Yellow Pine (‘SYP’) 2 x4s / 24” o.c. construction.
  • Increase the capacity (… and beauty!) inside your greenhouse by adding hooks for hanging plants. The solid framing won’t let you – or your plants – down!
  • Steeper pitch roof sheds snow efficiently
  • Roof and wall panels are heavy-duty 8mm twin wall polycarbonate. This UV-resistant greenhouse material is 12 times lighter than glass.

Clear polycarbonate panels make up the roof and sides of the greenhouse. They are neatly sandwiched between the interior wood framing and Azek exterior trim.

Azek is a multi-purpose construction material made of cellular PVC. It is durable and long-lasting. It does NOT require paint for protection but holds paint well should you decide you want something other than the standard white.

Azek never needs maintenance. And, unlike wood, it resists mold, mildew, stains, and scratches. It’s splinter-free and comes with a 30-year manufacturer’s warranty.

The 8mm twin wall polycarbonate panels offer improved insulation for both hot and cold weather and are superior to fragile glass or plastic sometimes used in greenhouses. In the unlikely event these durable panels need replacement, simply unscrew the (exterior Azek) trim and put in a new panel.

Ventilation:

  • 32’ x 80’ storm door. Includes solid, clear windowpane with screen option.
  • Optional exhaust fan. Mounted on the back wall.

FAQs

Is it cheaper to build a greenhouse or buy one? ›

If you purchase a standard greenhouse kit with no frills, it will likely cost less than it would to build a greenhouse from scratch. However, if you want a customized large greenhouse, it will be more cost effective to build it yourself.

What is the most inexpensive way to build a greenhouse? ›

One of the easiest and cheapest ways to build your own greenhouse is to use plastic sheeting, which is readily available at most hardware stores. Typically, you will want sheeting that is four or six mils thick. First, you will need to construct a frame to attach the plastic sheeting to.

How big of a greenhouse do I need to be self sufficient? ›

Around 400 sq ft (20' x 20') is what we would recommend to eliminate the need for the grocery store.

Do small plastic greenhouses work? ›

Re: Do the plastic greenhouses actually work? Yes, but they don't give much protection from a hard frost, so you may still need fleece for the coldest nights.

What is the most expensive part of a greenhouse? ›

The covering material of the greenhouse, also known as glazing, is usually the most expensive component of the structure. It is also one of the most important because the glazing is what allows the entry of light and heat into the greenhouse.

What is the most efficient type of greenhouse? ›

1 Passive solar greenhouses

They use features such as thermal mass, insulation, glazing, orientation, and ventilation to maintain optimal temperatures and humidity levels for the plants. Passive solar greenhouses can reduce heating costs by up to 90%, while also improving crop quality and diversity.

What is a good size backyard greenhouse? ›

All in all, a 10 foot wide greenhouse is a nice, comfortable width for hobbyists. Greenhouses that range from 12 – 20 feet wide are a good choice for horticulturists who want to grow on more than just benches.

Does my greenhouse need a foundation? ›

One of our most frequently asked questions is this: Do all greenhouses require a foundation? Yes, they do.

How much venting does a greenhouse need? ›

Roof and side vents on conventional greenhouses need to be large enough to get good air movement. The American Society of Agricultural Engineers recommends that the combined sidewall vent area should equal the combined ridge vent area and each should be 15 to 20% of the floor area.

What are the disadvantages of plastic greenhouses? ›

The only con here is that some plastic sheeting can be thin and therefore risks tearing. Plus, several layers may be required to achieve the same level of protection as glass. Plastic can also look less appealing than glass and can turn an unsightly yellow shade after some time.

Which is better, a white or green greenhouse? ›

Diffused light spreads sunlight more evenly throughout the greenhouse. Using a translucent or white greenhouse cover ensures that light spreads evenly from the top of the plant all the way down to the bottom.

Are glass greenhouses better than plastic? ›

Glass greenhouses provide superior light quality due to their high transmittance rates, benefiting plant growth by allowing more natural sunlight to penetrate. However, plastic greenhouses offer the advantage of diffusing light, which can prevent plant burn and ensure an even distribution of light across all plants.

Is building a greenhouse worth it? ›

Greenhouses provide a more controllable environment by trapping the heat from the sun creating a warm, more stable environment allowing your plants, flowers and trees to prosper for longer than a typical outdoor growing season.

How much does it cost to build your own greenhouse? ›

Average greenhouse costs in 2024
National average cost$11,000
Typical price range$2,000 – $25,000
Extreme low-end cost$1,000
Extreme high-end cost$30,000
Nov 29, 2023

Is an unheated greenhouse worth it? ›

An unheated greenhouse can be used to grow greens during winter, start warm season annuals, propagate landscape perennials, and shelter frost-tender plants through the winter chill. Besides greens like spinach and lettuce, you can grow cold tolerant veggies such as cabbage and broccoli in your unheated greenhouse.

Does a greenhouse add value to a house? ›

By attaching a greenhouse to your home, you're also increasing your home's square footage. This can lead to an increase in home value, as well as provide more living space for your family.
