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?

Hi Don,

I don't have an Elite greenhouse, however, with my greenhouse I've drilled a
hole in the top aluminium runner, to the left of the door when shut (but
this depends on which way your door opens). I then feed the shackle of my
padlock through this and snap it shut, preventing the door from being
opened. I also squirt a little oil in the lock to prevent it sticking
(although you can now get weatherproof padlocks).

HTH

Cheers
