Reviews

A Rhino greenhouse is the perfect environment for your plants. Designed by gardeners, for gardeners our greenhouses feature a super strong aluminium frame and toughened safety glass designed to help keep your plants and your family safe.

Since we sold our very first Rhino in 1999, every single Rhino has been manufactured at our East Harling factory right here in the UK. We sell direct to the public which we think makes our Rhino greenhouses the best value greenhouses money can buy. See what you think.

Louvre Vents & Automatic Roof Ventilation

Included as standard with the Rhino Premium 6x4 greenhouse:

  • 2 Single Roof Vents
  • 1 Side Louvre Vent
  • 2 Automatic Roof Vent Openers
  • Storm Locks

We understand how important ventilation is for successful growing under glass which is why our Rhino Premium greenhouses are fitted with as much roof ventilation as possible, using a combination of single, double and triple roof vents to make sure the maximum area is achieved. This means our Rhinos are the most ventilated greenhouses in their class on the market.

Our roof vents are fitted with solar-powered automatic vent openers on all of our Rhino Premiums as well as storm locks. The storm locks allow the vents to be secured down, which is ideal when bad weather is expected, allowing the entire structure to be made airtight. Note that it is important to disengage the vents before putting the storm locks into position, to avoid causing any damage to the openers.

The high quality Rhino five-blade louvre vents allow you to take complete control of your ventilation, allowing cool air to enter from the side, circulate up through the greenhouse forcing air to escape through the roof vents. Optimal circulation can only be achieved through a combination of roof vents and side louvres.

Adequate ventilation is absolutely crucial to successful growing under glass. There is not another greenhouse on the market that has more ventilation than a Rhino. Better still, it's all included in the price.

We've produced a handy guide explaining why ventilation is so important and how to optimise your greenhouse temperature.

4mm Toughened Glass - strong and safe

Keep yourself and your family safe with Rhino's combination glazing system: Toughened Safety Glass and Rubber Glazing Beads. Perfect for exposed locations and families with young children and pets.

Rhino Tuff 4mm toughened safety glass is 33% thicker than most greenhouse glass and comes as standard with every Rhino greenhouse. The panes are designed with safety in mind, meaning breakages are less likely while ensuring that, if broken, the glass will shatter into lots of tiny pieces rather than big shards that are far more likely to cause injury. Even the edges of the glass are rounded so that you don’t cut yourself during installation. And with Grade A glass, you can achieve ultimate clarity for maximum light.

Each pane of toughened safety glass is secured in place with our unique Rhino glazing system. Our glazing system locks each pane of glass in place along its entire length, using long rubber beads. These beads secure the glass in place and cannot be blown or sucked out of the frame. Pushing against the glass only locks the beads more tightly into the frame, making it ideally engineered for high winds and other extreme weather conditions. With Rhino's glazing method, each pane becomes integral to the strength of the whole frame. The Premium range also features box-section glazing bead for even greater stability, as a step up from the Classic range.

When compared with the glazing that comes as standard on most greenhouses, the Rhino ranges come up trumps every time. No dangerous horticultural glass or flimsy W-clips here; and with the smooth finish achieved by our glazing beads, there's no need for bar capping either.

Strong Frame - great wind resistance

We wouldn’t sit on the roof if a Rhino wasn’t so strong! Indeed, it’s why we named them Rhino. Every single Rhino is engineered for strength and stability.

Many of our customers choose a Rhino because it is perfectly adapted for extreme weather and exposed locations. We often hear that they have withstood storms and very strong gales (up to 137mph, so far). Whether you're in the Outer Hebrides or the Channel Islands, our Rhinos make secure growing locations, no matter the weather.

Each Rhino frame has around 60% more aluminium than similarly priced models. But it’s not just the weight, it’s the clever design of the Rhino that provides its inherent strength. There are 3 key factors that contribute the strength of the Rhino range:

  1. Strong T-section bracing
  2. An integral base
  3. The Rhino Tuff glazing system

With stronger T-section bracing replacing the tubular bracing of the Classic; positioned at every strut of the framework of the eaves and ridge of the the greenhouse, you can be confident in the security of the structure. The integral base and Rhino Tuff glazing system also add to the overall strength, creating a solid and airtight framework.

We’ve tested the snow loading capacity of a Rhino by putting half a tonne of sand bags on the roof, so it's ready for whatever the Great British weather may throw at it.

Integral Base – stronger and great access

Every Rhino greenhouse comes with its own strong aluminium base included in the price. This integral base not only provides an incredibly strong foundation but it also enables to Rhino to be erected onto firm, level soil - eliminating the need for an expensive concrete base.

One erected, the Rhino is secured with strong stainless steel ground anchors which are concreted into position.

If you'd prefer a hard standing of concrete or paving slabs, the Rhino is still a great choice and is secured using the stainless steel anchors and fixings provided. 

All Rhino greenhouses now include a low threshold door and ramp within the price. There’s no longer a trip hazard at the doorway and on 8, 10 and 12ft wide models there is plenty of width for a wheelchair or wheelbarrow to enter with ease.

Hanging Basket Rails

Every Rhino greenhouse comes with two hanging basket rails. The roof is so strong that it can easily handle this extra load, and it’s a really useful feature. Your hanging baskets will thrive and it will also free up lots of space on your staging.

Rainwater Collection

Each Rhino is fitted with large integral gutters as well as downpipes and bends so you can collect and use the natural rainwater that your plants love. If you only want to use one water butt, optional two-in-one kit available at an extra cost which joins the two pipes at the rear of the greenhouse and allows both gutters to feed into one.

25 Year Guarantee – they're that good

An industry leading guarantee - nothing says more about the quality of a Rhino greenhouse than our 25 Year Guarantee.

A generation of gardeners can rest assured that the frame and even the powder coated colour finish are covered, in the unlikely event that the greenhouse fails.

Base Preparation

Our Rhino greenhouses offer great flexibility when it comes to base options. Unlike most other greenhouse brands, our Rhinos can be erected on soil. This is only due to the strength created by its sturdy base and framework. As long as it is level and fully compacted, in most situations soil is the perfect solution.

Alternatively, hardstanding bases are also suitable. As long as they're smooth and level, paving slabs, concrete bases and brick or block perimeter plinths can also be used.

Every Rhino greenhouse is delivered with a comprehensive set of instructions. With help at key moments, a competent DIY enthusiast can erect this size of greenhouse over a weekend.

However, this time and effort can be eliminated by using a professional installer who will quickly and efficiently erect, glaze and anchor down the greenhouse on your pre-prepared site – either soil or hardstanding. See our Guidance Notes on Site and Base Preparation and Installation.

Installer charges for this size (depending on location and exact specification) are from £245. 

Tick the use recommended installer box in your basket and once you've placed an order, we will send you relevant details for independent installers local to you, should you wish you to pursue this.
