I bought a small Aluminium/glass greenhouse about 8 years ago for a fairly
small back garden, and I get a lot of enjoyment from it. But I now have a
4
year old daughter, and I'm worried abou8t the safety aspect.
Can you buy safety film for green house glass ? if so, where ?
Probably, but I would expect it to be expensive and suffer from UV
damage in an outdoor environment.
The Mothercare plastic film has been attached to the lower glass in our
lean-to for 12 years and still looks in perfect condition - not
degraded at all (bubbles still present where I imperfectly fitted it
too).
As a youngster I got away with running through a greenhouse window, but
the glass could just as easily have caused me serious damage.
To discover what damage the glass in a greenhouse can do I recommend
reading a book called the The Greehouse by Susan Hillmore - a
wonderfully gothic tale of a greenhouse with strong family ties.
