I am thinking of buying one of thee:

and erecting it myself. It will be placed on concrete paving slabs. The
manufacturer write of anchoring down the greenhouse, what does that
entail exactly?

Screwing or bolting it to something heavy so it won't blow away in the
wind.

Some manufacturers supply an anchor kit, often concrete "kerb stones" with
captive nuts or studs and you then bolt the frame to them.

You can also mount the greenhouse on a run of treated timber which goes
under the sides and screw/coach bolt to this.

Basically, an aluminium greenhouse can move in a strong wind. Safest to
fix it to something heavy.

Plenty of Google examples, e.g.
