A Rhino Premium is a highly desirable addition to your garden. It combines practicality with style, giving you a greenhouse that improves your quality of gardening and at the same time looks great all year round.

It’s a point of pride with us that you can only buy a Rhino Premium directly from our factory in Norfolk. It means we can control the quality of our products and the service we give, ensuring you get the very best from us, every single time. 

Louvre Vents & Automatic Roof Ventilation

Adequate ventilation is absolutely crucial to successful growing under glass, and no greenhouse on the market has more ventilation than a Rhino. Better still, it's all included in the price. 

Included as standard with the Rhino Premium 6x8 greenhouse:

  • 2 Double Roof Vents
  • 2 Side Louvre Vents
  • 4 Automatic Roof Vent Openers
  • Storm Locks for each opener

Each vent on our Rhino Premium greenhouses is fitted with a storm lock. These locks allow the vents to be secured down in high winds or bad weather conditions, making the entire structure airtight. Each vent on our Rhino Premium greenhouses is fitted with a storm lock. These locks allow the vents to be secured down in high winds or bad weather conditions, making the entire structure airtight. 

The high-quality Rhino five-blade louvre vents allow you to take complete control of your ventilation. They allow cool air to enter from the side, which circulates up through the greenhouse and force the heated air out through the roof vents. Optimal circulation can only be achieved through a combination of roof vents and side louvres.

The amount of ventilation in a Rhino Premium is simply unmatched by any other make. Read our handy guide to discover why ventilation is so important and the secret to optimise your greenhouse temperature.

4mm Toughened Glass - strong and safe

With safety at the forefront of every Rhino, we've developed our combination glazing system. Perfect for exposed locations and families with young children and pets. 

Part 1 of our glazing system is the use of Rhino Tuff 4mm toughened safety glass. This safety glass is 33% thicker than most greenhouse glass and is supplied as standard with every Rhino. In the unlikely event that a pane is broken, the glass will shatter into thousands of tiny pieces rather than big shards which are far more likely to cause injury. Safety at every step is important to us, which is why even the edges of the glass are rounded so you don't cut yourself during installation. And with Grade A glass, you can achieve ultimate clarity for maximum light.

Part 2 of our unique Rhino glazing system locks each pane of glass in place along its entire length, using long rubber beads. The glass cannot be blown or sucked out of the frame and pushing on the glass only locks the beads more tightly into the frame, making it ideally engineered for high winds and other extreme weather conditions. With Rhino's glazing method, each pane becomes integral to the strength of the whole frame. The Premium range also features box-section glazing bead for even greater stability, as a step up from the Classic range.

A lot of greenhouses come with horticultural glass, flimsy W-clips and bar capping. When compared with the glazing that comes as standard on most greenhouses, the Rhino ranges come up trumps every time. With the smooth finish achieved by our glazing beads, you'll definitely prefer them to W-clips.

Strong Frame - great wind resistance

Every single Rhino is engineered for strength and stability. Whether you're in the Outer Hebrides or the Channel Islands, our Rhinos make secure growing locations, no matter the weather. Many of our customers choose us because of this strength and stability, we often hear that our Rhinos have withstood storms and very strong gales (up to 137mph so far).

Each Rhino frame has around 60% more aluminium than similarly priced models. But it’s not just the weight, it’s the clever design of the Rhino that provides its inherent strength. There are 3 key factors that contribute the strength of the Rhino range:

  1. Strong T-section bracing
  2. An integral base
  3. The Rhino Tuff glazing system

The Rhino Premium is a step up from the Classic model, with even stronger T-section bracing replacing the tubular bracing of the Classic; positioned at every strut of the framework of the eaves and ridge of the the greenhouse, you can be confident in the security of the structure. The integral base and Rhino Tuff glazing system also add to the overall strength, creating a solid and airtight framework from the top of the roof to the ground.

We’ve tested the snow loading capacity of a Rhino by putting half a tonne of sand bags on the roof, so it's ready for whatever the Great British weather may throw at it.

Integral Base – stronger and great access

Every Rhino greenhouse includes a strong aluminium base in the price, which not only provides an incredibly strong foundation but also allows The Rhino to be erected simply onto firm, level soil – so there’s no need for an expensive concrete base.

Once The Rhino is erected, strong stainless steel ground anchors are concreted into position.

The Rhino can also be erected on a hardstanding of concrete or paving slabs, in which case the stainless steel anchors are fixed using the fixings provided.

All Rhino greenhouses now include a low threshold door and ramp within the price. There’s no longer a trip hazard at the doorway and on 8, 10 and 12ft wide models there is plenty of width for a wheelchair or wheelbarrow to enter with ease.

Hanging Basket Rails

With gardeners in mind, every Rhino is fitted with two hanging basket rails. These rails are part of the roof, but don't worry they're still more than capable of handling the extra load. 

Using hanging basket rails is also a clever way to free up lots of space on your staging for other plants!

Rainwater Collection

Every Rhino greenhouse also comes with large integral gutters as well as downpipes and bends so you can collect and use the natural rainwater that your plants love.

There is an optional two-in-one kit available at an extra cost which joins the two pipes at the rear of the greenhouse and allows both gutters to feed into one water butt.

25 Year Guarantee – they're that good

Nothing says more about the quality of a Rhino greenhouse than our 25 Year Guarantee.

A generation of gardeners can rest assured that the frame and even the powder coated colour finish are covered, in the unlikely event that the greenhouse fails.

Base Preparation

Growing into soil can provide a number of plant benefits, which is why our Rhino greenhouses offer great flexibility when it comes to base options. Unlike most other greenhouse brands, our Rhinos can be erected on soil. This is only due to the strength created by its sturdy base and framework. As long as it is level and fully compacted, in most situations soil is the perfect solution.

Don't worry, if you prefer a hardstanding base these are still suitable. As long as they're smooth and level, paving slabs, concrete bases and brick or block perimeter plinths can also be used.

Very happy with the service by Rhino. Communication about availability and delivery was very good. We took the opportunity of using one of Rhinos approved local fitters, who took delivery of the greenhouse and arranged a suitable time to erect in our garden, as it happened we were very pleased that the fitters were able to offer us a slot a week earlier than expected. The whole process was very good, we are very pleased.
