Hi all,

I'm a 'non' gardener, but I like the results there of so ...

The lean-to greenhouse has no opening windows - no not an easy option
to put some in (without a full re-build - not my design etc. etc.) so
can I use on of those window openers to open the door or does anyone
have any other ideas?

I'd thought about a PV-cell (or several) and a few 12V computer case
fans but ...

TIA

Put louvre style vents in by taking single sheets of glass out, so long
as your glass is standard they should fit and you can get automatic
openers for them.


Not a feasible option as it is 'clad' is plastic sheeting - thought about
that! Only when (if) I have to rebuild it will that be an option as
nothing is standard anywhere

Putting auto openers on the doors will not work as you would only be
able to go in when it was hot!


Ah! good point did not think about that!
