Coppice Ashdown 5ft 3in x 4ft 9in Apex Wooden Greenhouse with Toughened Glass

The Coppice Ashdown Apex Wooden Greenhouse (CCAP1448X1600OBUN) measures 1.6m wide by 1.45m deep that's roughly 5ft 3in x 4ft 9in. For a compact garden this footprint delivers a surprisingly usable growing space with room for staging and floor-level grow bags side by side.

The frame is built from 44mm x 44mm R4C timber with 12mm pressure-treated cladding coated in a microporous oil. This lets the wood breathe while blocking rot and fungal decay. Glazing is 3mm toughened glass throughout roof and door which handles knocks and lets in maximum light. The apex roof sheds rain efficiently and the robust framing resists wind loading well.

Two opening roof vents sit on either side of the apex and regulate temperature without any automatic mechanism. A 2-shelf staging unit is included with brackets to fix it to the frame. You can realistically grow tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and tender bedding plants in a greenhouse this size.

Professional installation is included in the price Coppice's team assembles it using a clip system. The door has chrome fittings and a 3-lever mortice lock. A 1-year warranty is included. Optional guttering and a second door are available as upgrades.

The frame uses 44mm x 44mm R4C section timber a robust structural size that resists racking and wind movement. The 12mm cladding is pressure treated and finished with a microporous oil that lets moisture vapour escape while blocking water ingress. Glazing is 3mm toughened glass clipped into the frame toughened glass is around four times stronger than standard glass and breaks safely. The apex roof pitch sheds rainwater efficiently and adds structural rigidity. Two manually operated roof vents on opposite sides of the ridge allow cross-ventilation when both are open.

The frame is 44mm x 44mm R4C pressure-treated timber with 12mm thick timber cladding finished in a microporous oil. All glazing including the door is 3mm toughened glass. No polycarbonate is used. The door features chrome steel handles and hinges with a 3-lever mortice lock.

No base or flooring is included. This greenhouse is designed without flooring so you must prepare a level concrete slab or level paving before the installation team arrives. The ground must be flat and stable. Base preparation is entirely the buyer's responsibility before the installation date.

This greenhouse is assembled by Coppice's professional installation team that service is included in the price. You do not need to self-assemble. The team uses a clip installation system for fast and accurate build. You need a prepared level base ready before they arrive. No DIY assembly is required.

The 1.6m x 1.45m floor area fits two standard grow bags side by side on the floor that gives you space for six tomato or pepper plants at floor level. The included 2-shelf staging runs along one side and holds seed trays and small pots comfortably. In spring use the staging for seed sowing and propagation. In summer grow tomatoes, cucumbers or chillies on the floor and use the shelves for herbs and smaller crops. In autumn and winter the space is well suited to overwintering tender perennials and protecting frost-sensitive plants.

Retreat the timber once a year with a suitable wood preservative to protect against rot and fungal decay this is essential for the wood's long-term condition. Clean the toughened glass panels with warm soapy water. Check that the two roof vents open and close freely each season. If guttering is fitted keep it clear of debris.

At 1.6m x 1.45m this greenhouse suits a small garden or a patio corner well. You need clearance on the door side at least 600mm to open the door fully. The two roof vents open upward so no side clearance is needed for them. The apex roof keeps the overall footprint tight while the internal staging and floor space give you a practical growing area that punches above its size.
