Lean-to Greenhouse /Conservatory 'VIOLA'

A lean-to greenhouse is the ideal place to protect delicate plants and vegetables from the vagaries of the weather. The wall it is attached to, works like a storage heater, absorbing the day's heat and providing mild temperature in the evening and night.

Our best selling lean-to greenhouse 'Viola' is a sturdy construction made from boxed aluminium frames. All glazing panes are firmly fixed with neoprene rubber seals on all sides.
The well-designed frames of the ‘Viola’ and the one unit glazing panes offer clean lines. Attached to the wall it adds a stylish feature to almost every house. Most people will use the ‘Viola’ as a greenhouse. But it offers enough space to create a lovely place to rest and relax. This is probably the easiest way to achieve the conservatory dream*.
A small version of the ‘Viola’ will make a nice porch. The passage clearance of 1.85m (6’1’’) offers comfortable access.
The ‘Viola’ is available in various depth and length. Glazing panes come in 0.63m (2’). Standard roof pitch is 10°.   

*(Unlike a lean-to conservatory the aluminium frames of 'Viola' are not insulated. Condensation can appear.)

Lean-to Conservatory  'FLORENCE'

A lean-to conservatory is also known as garden/sun room or Mediterranean conservatory. It has clear lines that gives a 'classic look' and makes it popular for modern houses as well as traditional cottages.
The single pitched roof means it is suitable where space is limited, such as bungalows or houses with height restrictions.
Its characteristic rectangular shape makes the most of the available space.

Our lean-to conservatory 'Florence', as well the solar porch 'Berlin' make a beautiful addition to the home and increase the value of the property. It can also improve the energy balance of the house significantly.

A Mediterranean sunroom will really bring the garden into the home, most notably in our glass to ground models.
While enjoying the ambience of the garden you stay warm and snug on chilly days and even in wintertime the sunlight will be trapped and converted into heat.

The lean-to conservatory 'Florence' provides a sizeable extension of the living area of your home. It is rapidly constructed - almost without any disruption to the family life, and for a fraction of the usual costs of an annex.

The roof frames (rafter) of the 'Florence' are made of boxed insulated sections. The roof glazing panes are firmly fixed with roof capping bars. The stylish side frames are not insulated. Condensation may appear.  
The 20mm double-glazing units are fixed with residential-style glass stoppers. Generous glazing panes of 1 x 2 m (3’3’’ x 6’7’’) and slim frames allow a rich flow of the daylight into the room.
