Below is a brief overview of how some of the key points of this greenhouse fairs across the market.

Guarantee

On a metal greenhouse, the guarantee that the manufacturer offers is usually a very good indicator of the quality of the building. The longer the guarantee the more the manufacturer believes in the quality of the building they have produced. Typically we see manufacturer guarantees for metal Greenhouses ranging from zero right up to a 15 years guarantee.

This metal greenhouse comes with a 10 years guarantee. Most metal greenhouse come with a 5 years guarantee (52.56% of them) [2].

For this particular brand (Marlborough Combi Summerhouses) they offer 6 [3] different types of guarantees on their metal greenhouses, with the 10 years guarantee on this being the only they offer. The 10 years guarantee is found on 100.00% of Marlborough Combi Summerhouses metal greenhouses [4]. It is great that this greenhouse was given one of the highest guarantees offered by the brand, and this shows the manufacturer has a lot of faith in the overall quality of this part of their product range.

When looking at comparable 3′ x 2′ metal greenhouses (we found 28 of them) the most popular guarantee length offered by manufacturers was 10 years [5]. 92.86% came with a missing guarantee and 7.14% came with a 10 year guarantee.

Public-Facing – Extra security measures might be more of a concern if you’re placing your building in an area that is more public-facing than a garden. Features such as security windows or even having no windows at all, and the ability to lock all opening doors are usually much more important when you have something that is more public-facing. We found at least 1 greenhouses that have options that you might find a better fit if this is a concern you have.

1. Steel: Is the “world’s most important engineering and construction material” according to the World Steel Accosiation. When it comes to garden structure steel is often a very strong and durable metal, although if it is untreated then it is prone to rust and corrosion. Steel is an alloy of iron mixed with less than 2% carbon and 1% manganese and small amounts of silicon, phosphorus, sulphur and oxygen. When steel comes into contact with water and oxygen there is a chemical reaction and the steel begins to revert to its original form – iron oxide (that’s Rust to the layperson). Steel must be coated in a protective layer to stop this reaction, for most garden applications this consists of powder coating or the more stable and long lasting use of galvanising the steel first.
