The cultivar lean-to range is available in 2 standard widths:
5’ 10" (1783mm) View Dimensions
8’ 3" (2523mm) View Dimensions
Both these models are modular in length so the greenhouse can be extended to span the full length of the wall if you wish. As with all our greenhouses the lean-to range is available glass to ground, with Accoya boarding or to go onto a dwarf wall. You can choose the modern wide pane centres or for period properties you might opt for the Victorian style with narrow pane centres.
Cultivar produce a range of three-quarter lean to greenhouses that can be fitted against an existing wall. This, of course, is assuming that the wall is in good order and is plumb and true. A three-quarter lean-to greenhouse has significant advantages over that of a standard lean-to. Firstly the wall to which the greenhouse abuts need not be as high. Secondly and arguably equally important the greenhouse benefits from having a greater cubic air capacity as well as having vents on both sides of the ridge. Additional ventilation can be added at eaves level along the length or at the plain end of the greenhouse to compensate from the lack of ventilation along the wall side.
The Victorian three-quarter lean to range is available in exactly the same sizes but has the more traditional narrow pane centres and is crowned at each end with a hand turned Accoya finial as pictured.
In an ideal world the wall should be south facing and if this is the case you will benefit from full sun most of the day. The wall tends to absorb the heat during the day which is useful in keeping the lean to greenhouse temperature up high into the evening and night.
If you’re looking for a wider greenhouse then perhaps one of our larger greenhouses abutting will work for you. The width of this model is approximately 10’ 7" (3300mm). This is also available as glass to ground or with an Accoya boarded base. If space is ample then you might consider adding cold frames to the width.
