I have just bought myself a 6 x 8 Elite Craftsman greenhouse which,
after something of a struggle, I have now finished erecting.
There is no provision for locking the door or fixing a padlock, though I
believe Elite do sell such a thing.
What sort of security do amateur gardeners usually install in or on
their greenhouses?

What's the point? Anyone who wanted to steal something could just smash a
pane of glass or two and grab what they wanted. Most gardeners leave their
greenhouse door open during the summer anyway, to stop it overheating. The
best thing is not to keep anything valuable in the greenhouse. If you must,
then get yourself a lockable cabinet or something to put inside it.

I was thinking more on the lines of grandchildren or neighbours children
pinching my tomatoes etc than any smash & grab merchants. I think I'll
just ensure that I grow enough stuff for us all :-) Thank you.
