The Halls Popular comes with a 12 year guarantee

The Halls Popular range of greenhouses offer good value for money.

These aluminium framed greenhouses come equipped with many features which are detailed in the accordions below.

The Halls Popular greenhouse comes with horticultural glass as standard as traditionally greenhouses have been glazed with this to keep costs low. Each pane is 2ft x 2ft or smaller and is held in with spring wire ‘W’ clips and ‘S’ clips where panes overlap.

We recommend upgrading to toughened glass which is a much safer option. This is far stronger glass, better able to withstand damage from children playing ball or accidents when someone falls against the glass.

A third option, twin wall polycarbonate, is also offered.

Halls separate base

The Halls Popular greenhouse requires a base and cannot be erected straight onto slabs or concrete.

A brick surround can be laid out, but a better and cheaper option is the galvanised steel base, which can be purchased in addition. This allows the greenhouse to be erected directly onto a soil site, the corner anchors of the base just need to be concreted into position to secure it.

If you prefer to construct a brick plinth then we can provide you with the exact outside base dimensions. The bottom sills of the greenhouse overlap the brickwork so it is important that the base is built exactly to these dimensions.

The Halls Popular 6x8 greenhouse comes with one roof vent. You can improve the ventilation by adding a louvre vent and an automatic roof vent opener for convenience and automatically controlled ventilation.

 

Halls 12 year guarantee

Every Halls greenhouse is backed by a 12 year guarantee – so you know that you are buying a product that can be enjoyed for years to come.

Q. Can this greenhouse be sited directly onto my garden?
A. Yes, provided you have ordered the optional galvanised steel base. You must secure the greenhouse by concreting in the ground anchors. 
If you are siting it on a lawn then be sure to take the top level of turf off. Cut the lawn back at least a spade width all round so that you don’t have grass growing right up to the edge of the greenhouse. You could fill this area with shingle after the greenhouse is installed.

Q. Can I lay a brick surround?
A. Yes this is possible, the brick surround would need to be built to the exact dimensions supplied in the base plan. It is recommended that solid engineering bricks are used.

Q. What about laying slabs round the perimeter for the base to sit on?
A. As this greenhouse requires a raised plinth, a flat slab perimeter would not be suitable unless you select the optional galvanised steel base plinth.

Q. Can I erect the greenhouse on a paved patio or concrete area?
A. No, this greenhouse requires a raised brick plinth. However, there is an optional galvanised steel base available which can then be fitted onto a paved or concrete area. Exact greenhouse base dimensions can be provided.

Q. How do I fix the greenhouse down?
A. Soil (with optional galvanised steel base plinth) - dig a hole at each point and concrete the ground anchors into position.
Brick surround - You will need to drill holes into your hardstanding base and fix the greenhouse down using screws and rawl plugs.

Q. Is drainage a problem?
A. You’ll be sloshing a lot of water about inside the greenhouse all year round so it is a very good plan to allow this to drain awayrather than sit in puddles inside the greenhouse. For further information please contact service@greenhousesdirect.co.uk

Glazing Options
Sorry, that upgrade is not available

Halls glazing options

As standard, Halls greenhouses are supplied with 3mm horticultural glass. However, whilst low in cost, there is a sacrifice of safety and today the trend is towards safer and stronger glazing alternatives. Two glazing upgrade options are offered.

Twin wall polycarbonate has the advantage that it offers increased insulation, which may be useful in the winter months. It does, however, suffer from two major disadvantages - it's so light that it makes the greenhouse vulnerable to wind damage and it also reduces light levels, which can be a problem for your plants.

Toughened 3mm glass is the best option as it offers a good degree of safety, should an accident occur. It also has the advantage of a larger pane size, which means no overlaps, which would attract dirt and algae.

Base Options

The galvanised steel base allows the greenhouse to be erected directly onto a soil site, the corner anchors of the base just need to be concreted into position to secure it.

It is available in a plain galvanised steel or powdercoated green finish.

Extra Ventilation

The right combination of roof vents and side louvres allows you to take complete control of your ventilation. Air can enter low down through side louvers, circulate up through the greenhouse, and escape out of the roof vents. Ideally fit more than one louvre to all but the smallest greenhouse.

Roof vents also work best in conjunction with automatic roof vent openers which are solar powered, very reliable and absolutely brilliant at regulating the temperature. Fit one per roof vent, choose from toughened glass or polycarbonate to match your greenhouse.

It really is worthwhile ordering extra ventilation along with your greenhouse, as it’s inconvenient and much more expensive to add once the greenhouse is erected.
