Glazing

Glazing for your magnum greenhouse is available in three different options for plenty of choice;
horticultural, toughened or polycarbonate.

Horticultural glass is the standard glazing option, being the most traditional and common due to the affordable cost. In the magnum, it’s provided in 3mm thick panes that are 2ft by 2ft in size. The panes are simply clipped onto the greenhouses’ frame and fall into place slightly overlapping one another.

Unlike horticultural glass which can be a danger when shattered due to the large shards it produces, toughened glass provides a safer alternative. As if were to ever get broken, it'll break into tiny pieces causing less exposure and risk to you and your family getting injured.

Magnum greenhouses can be provided in toughened glass, which is also 3mm thick but has been tempered to make it a highly stronger alternative. A second advantage of going for the toughened glazing option is that the panes are provided as ‘long pane’ pieces, which are longer panes of glass that fit the whole side of the greenhouse in one sheet, rather than clipping multiple smaller panes together, as such with the horticultural option.

Polycarbonate glazing is the last glazing option. It isn't glass so isn't as traditional to look at, but offers the most security and safety when it comes to having children and pets playing nearby. Polycarbonate is a plastic material that's twin-walled to aid with insulation and is highly durable and flexible, meaning that it's super hard to break, even when hit with a football or similar.

Buyers Tip: If buying a greenhouse online, just ensure that the retailer you choose sells genuine Halls branded glazing along with the frame, as some of the cheaper selling retailers only sell a Halls branded frame and bundle it with their own cheaper alternative glazing and accessories.
