Anyone got any instructions for Norfolk Greenhouse?

*onlyme*

We have purchased a Ultimate Junior 4 greenhouse from Norfolk Greenhouses and hubby came to build it today and no instructions in either of the 2 boxes.

I have rung them..they are not open till Monday. I have rung some of their stockist to ask if anyone could email me over the instructions but sadly no-one has stock of these or the one that did have stock, couldn't email it over because the office person not there this weekend.

On the off-chance I am asking here...as we would like to get it build this weekend but without the instructions, it just not possible as so many bits and pieces with it.

Would you be able to send me a copy of those instructions if you still got it?
We got the greenhouse, my partner bought it of somebody last year and when we just opened the box we found there are no instructions.

Best instruction, take it back and buy a real one. Sorry found the instructions were rubbish, and after a bad storm it looked like a truck drove into it. Brought a nice one from the Greenhouse People

The instructions are rubbish, but if it is put together properly, it's durable enough. Mine's been through several stormy seasons with no problems.

I stand by my word, the Aluminium on these Newspaper Advertised Greenhouses (Norfolk) is feeble bendy stuff (Mine was put up by a retired engineer, who felt it was very poor which it proved to be.) Go and look at a decent one in a Garden Centre to compare, and you'll see the difference.

You really do pay for what you get, and a Glass Greenhouse is going to always out last one of plastic and thin Aluminium.

I can only go by my own experience. I know it won't last forever, but it's 4-5 years old, been through some atrocious conditions, and I expect to have it at least another 3 years. Not one panel has ever blown out. A nut worked loose once, allowing a strut to move a bit. I put the nut back on.

I don't think that's bad for a sub-£200 greenhouse.

Yeah but look where you've got it. In a built up urban area, surrounded with houses, a tall fence and next to a substantial shed.
People always forget things like that, when they wax lyrical on about how good cheap things are.

It would last about two weeks in my garden.

Sorry if I've got it wrong, but that's how it looks from your photos.

The shed's only been there a year; the previous one was a lot smaller. Before I got the fence replaced last month it didn't go all the way to the back, and the wind fair whistles round the garden. More than a few times I've got up in the morning expecting to see it destroyed or in next door's garden, but I've never even lost a panel.

Properly erected, and anchored (which it is), I think it would hold its own in your garden. I'm not saying it's the best greenhouse in the world - the instructions might as well be in Hebrew, it's too small, too low, and the one window in the back was designed by a fool. But for the price, it's a lot better than you'd think.
