Greenhouses & filmsy polycarbonate sheeting
Back in February I bought my wife two 9' x 12' "Lakeland" greenhouses
as a retirement present. Due to various issues including levelling the site etc it's only in the last month we've assembled one of them (the other is still in bits), and within two weeks we lost seven of the polycarbonate sheets in what I think were only light winds. I have no faith whatsoever in the rest not blowing away soon. The sheeting is 4mm polycarbonate twin wall that slides into channels, and the wind makes it bow so much that it comes out of the channel. Once out they are almost impossible to re-fit without major dismantling. It was a seller on ebay (swiftbuys234) who reportedly died five weeks ago so no redress there. OK our fault for not putting them up sooner, but I believe that the basic design is flawed. Has anyone else had this problem, or perhaps has a solution less radical than scrapping them and starting again? AWEM |
