Victorian

Our highest specification; with larger and more ornate timber profiles. Perfect for lean-to greenhouses over 3m wide and other larger span buildings.

The ‘Victorian’ specification provides the platform to reproduce the grand old buildings of this era accurately; a really authentic look for those with a discerning eye for detail.
Perhaps the most distinctive feature of greenhouses from this period is the classic portal framed structure, often tied and strengthened with ironwork, supporting the rest of the structure.
Large rafters and mullions at regular intervals formed modular sections which were subdivided into four or so individual bays.
Horizontal purlins strung between the rafters would carry the much narrower and more delicate glazing bars.
The framework of our Victorian greenhouses is manufactured from our largest and most detailed timber sections with additional moulding used on the glazing bars, rafters and architrave.
