Custom Greenhouses:

We’re working on this page too… so please bear with us. Contact us for more info in the meantime.

Peerless makes custom ‘Made – to – Order’ Type Wooden Greenhouses.

These are relatively expensive compared to the cheap Big Box Store variety products.

So if you’re just looking for a cheap greenhouse we are not your folks. All Peerless Greenhouses are custom made. Usually Peerless supplies a precut kit that is assembled on site as a DIY project. However we can arrange assistance to assemble or even complete builds including foundations if required thru contractors.

Contractors are directly employed by purchaser.

Greenhouse kits are available in any style including half glazed wall, full glazed side wall, with various door styles including dutch doors. Vents can be either end vents or roof vents.

Generally unless otherwise requested automatic solar vent openers are included.

The Details:

Foundations:

Kits can be built on a concrete pad, open wall foundation (earth floor), pressure treated or cedar timber foundation, or on wood platform floors.  Or any combination of these.

Structure:

Kits are made from Western Red Cedar, select tight knot quality unless otherwise specified. Depending on size certain structural elements may be supplied with SPF lumber to provide adequiate structural strength.

Kits can be supplied with Clear Cedar if requested. Expect this to be more expensive.

Unlike many available greenhouses, Peerless kits generally employ a steeper pitch roof angle. This allows for more solar collection (heat) in shoulder seasons and also sheds snow loads easier.  Our kits are made for Canada… not California.

Glazing:

Most greenhouse kits are designed to use double wall Polycarbonate glazing. This is available in 4×8, or 4×10 sheet size, and in 6  or 8 mil. thickness. Peerless can supply the required quantity if requested, however, it is usually better for purchaser to directly order this material. It can be cut to size on site with a sharp knive or box cutter type tools.

We can design greenhouse kits to use safety glass if requested.
