Palram Canopia Hybrid 6ft x 4ft Green Polycarbonate Greenhouse (1.85m x 1.26m)

The Palram Canopia Hybrid 6x4 polycarbonate greenhouse (701652) measures 1.85m x 1.26m (6ft x 4ft) with a ridge height of 2080mm. That footprint gives a small garden a proper growing space without taking over the lawn. The apex roof keeps the classic greenhouse look while shedding rainwater efficiently.

The rust-resistant aluminium frame sits on a galvanised steel perimeter base and is tested to handle winds of 90km/hr and snow loads of 75kg/m². The 4mm twin-wall polycarbonate roof panels deliver 82% light transmission and the crystal-clear 0.7mm polycarbonate side panels give 90% light transmission. Both panel types are fully UV-protected and shatterproof. Fine Shield Technology™ keeps the panels from discolouring or fading.

A single manually-opened roof vent lets you regulate temperature. No staging is included but Palram Canopia shelves are available separately. Integrated rain gutters collect rainwater for plant watering. You can realistically grow tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and overwinter tender plants in this size.

The 5-year limited warranty backs this maintenance-free structure. Pre-cut panels slide into place for straightforward DIY assembly. The lockable door opens left or right to suit your site. A solid level base is required as no floor is supplied.

The aluminium frame uses rust-resistant sections joined to a galvanised steel perimeter base for ground-level stability. The 4mm twin-wall polycarbonate roof panels trap a layer of air between the walls which adds thermal insulation and reduces temperature spikes from direct sun. The 0.7mm crystal-clear side panels maximise light at 90% transmission. Fine Shield Technology™ protects all panels from UV degradation. The apex roof pitch sheds rain efficiently. The structure is wind tested to 90km/hr and snow-load tested to 75kg/m². The manually-opened roof vent releases heat build-up in warm weather.

The frame is rust-resistant aluminium sitting on a galvanised steel perimeter base. The roof uses 4mm twin-wall polycarbonate panels with 82% light transmission. The side walls use 0.7mm crystal-clear polycarbonate with 90% light transmission. All polycarbonate panels are fully UV-protected and shatterproof under Fine Shield Technology™.

This greenhouse has no floor. It must be fixed to a solid level base such as a concrete slab or paving slabs. You need to prepare and lay the base yourself before assembly. No base or flooring is supplied with the greenhouse. The galvanised steel perimeter base sits on top of your prepared surface.

Panels are pre-cut with uniform profiles and slide into place without complex cutting. Palram Canopia describe the assembly as incredibly easy. Two people are recommended to manage the panels safely during the build. No assembly time is stated by the manufacturer. All panels arrive pre-cut and the sliding panel system means no specialist tools should be needed. Check the box for included fixings and instructions.

The 1.85m x 1.26m floor gives you roughly 2.3 square metres of growing space. You can fit two standard grow bags on the floor side by side with room to tend them. That supports four to six tomato or pepper plants. Add Palram Canopia shelves to the sides and you gain space for seed trays in spring. In summer use the floor for grow bags and shelves for pots of herbs or cucumbers. In winter the twin-wall roof insulation helps you overwinter tender plants like fuchsias and pelargoniums.

This greenhouse is described as maintenance free. The polycarbonate panels will not discolour or fade and the aluminium frame will not rust. Wipe panels down periodically to keep light transmission high. Clear the integrated gutters of debris to keep water flowing freely. Check the roof vent opens and closes smoothly each season.

At 1.85m wide and 1.26m deep this is a genuine small garden greenhouse. Site it with at least 600mm clearance on the door side to open it fully. The apex roof means it can sit close to a fence on the back and sides. The reversible door means you can choose which way it faces to make the most of your available space. The slim footprint gives you useful bench and floor growing space without dominating a small plot.
