When we tell you that the Palram – Canopia Balance Greenhouse Kits provide your plants with the optimal conditions for nurture and growth, we mean it.

With two types of glazing, you get a balanced DIY greenhouse that combines the protection of the diffused twin-wall roof panels with the light transmission of the crystal-clear wall panels for ideal growing conditions. All panels are made of UV-protected polycarbonate, a glass-like, virtually unbreakable high-end polymer that is uniquely suited for greenhouses.

The extra-large workspace gives you plenty of room to grow an abundance of vegetables and herbs and store the tools and accessories you need. The Balance Greenhouse is also extremely accessible with wide double doors and a low threshold for wheelbarrows to go in and out and enough room to transfer large trays of plants.

The combination of the safe polycarbonate panels with the rust-resistant, aluminum frame and extra strong support beams provides you with a greenhouse that is well-designed and durable, so you never have to worry about the sturdiness or safety of your greenhouse.
For a beautiful, well-designed, and spacious addition to your gardening experience, get a Balance backyard Greenhouse today!

  1. Jwb Country: United States (US)

    Itis a nice little greenhouse, and very light weight.

    It must be tied down as soon as assembled. The finish is well done. I really like the vents although not needed during mid-winter. (Originally posted at "Homedepot.com")
  2. David Country: United States (US)

    We have only had the greenhouse installed for a week or two.

    I was impressed with the engineering, the easy to follow directions, and they gave you extra nuts, bolts or screws. I installed the greenhouse on a pressure treated deck which made leveling and squaring up the greenhouse easy. (Originally posted at "Homedepot.com")
  3. Kim Country: United States (US)

    Love my green house!

    Took some time for me to assemble. But if you follow the steps in order, it goes together great. It’s not difficult, just a little time consuming. It looks beautiful and my plants are all cozy for winter. (Originally posted at "Homedepot.com")

Each wall section can carry up to 44 lbs. at most – an entire wall would depend upon the greenhouse’ size.
It can be anchored to a foundation, depending on the greenhouse, some have compatible holes at the bottom of the greenhouse base, and some have their own integrated anchoring. Yes, the greenhouse can be anchored to concrete slab. It can be anchored directly to the ground using ground stakes (ground stakes are not supplied with the greenhouse kits). *Firmly connect the product to a level surface immediately after completion of the assembly. Anchoring this product to the ground is essential to its stability and rigidity. It is required to complete this stage in order for your warranty to be valid.
The Palram Greenhouse can be used year-round, there are several factors to consider. The two main factors are weather and plants. What are the plants you want to grow and how much heat or cold can they handle? No matter where you live, greenhouses can be 20-40 degrees hotter inside during the day and at night they will be the same temperature as the outdoors. This is without any supplemental heating or cooling. Depending on where you live, heating and / or cooling your greenhouse can make the difference. If you need to heat or cool your greenhouse in extreme weather conditions, you may want to consider a twin-wall greenhouse such as the Palram Glory Greenhouse which has a 10mm polycarbonate covering.
