Greenhouse Project: Roof Setback

Sunday, March 12, 2023 0:01

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Continued from Greenhouse: Progress on the Roof

Our greenhouse is pretty much a recycled materials project. That means we’re using different types of windows for different parts of the structure. In my last greenhouse blog post, I showed you what Dan used for the upper portion of the greenhouse roof. For the lower portion, his plan is to use the $10 bargain windows he got from a builders surplus warehouse.

Picture from Greenhouse Project: Weather Permitting

Unlike the wood frame windows, these had vinyl frames, which he removed.

First one in place.

The roof rafters are spaced to accommodate these windows.

The wood framed windows were installed leaving a gap at the lower edge, to allow simply slipping the lower window up and under the painted frame. Some adjusting has been necessary.

Dan using his grinder to tweak the slot for the window.

View from below.

Then, an accident. One of the windows broke! We went back to the builders surplus, albeit not very hopefully because Dan bought out all of this size when he first got them. We couldn’t find anything similar, but it wasn’t a wasted trip because we bought the interior greenhouse door.

So, the hunt is on for a replacement. Replacement glass of the same size and thickness was priced to us at $500 (!!!!!) Custom cut acrylic or plexiglass was similar. Sheets of acrylic or plexiglass aren’t cheap either.

As anxious as Dan is to get this project finished, it may take some time and hunting to find what we’re looking for. The broken window is timely, however, because we need to work on soil prep for spring planting.

Current status of the greenhouse.

Hopefully, we’ll find a replacement soon.
