The Elite Titan Bar:

The Sanctuary range of greenhouses is built using the Elite Titan Bar, a super-strong aluminium glazing bar specifically engineered for strength, stability, and long-term performance. Incorporating Elite’s advanced Core-Vect technology, the Titan Bar features increased wall thickness and an intelligent internal structure that significantly enhances rigidity without adding unnecessary weight.

Designed to perform in demanding conditions, the Titan Bar system includes full bar capping, which securely locks the glazing into place and provides exceptional resistance to wind lift and movement. This construction method creates a remarkably strong framework that is far more resilient than standard glazing bar systems.

Doors:
This is where the magic happens!  The Sanctuary range of greenhouses are supplied with low threshold double doors, with a handle, lock and key.  However, you have the option to have these either on the gable or the side (length) of the greenhouse – or both!.  Doors can only be fitted on the length for 8ft lengths and over.

Glazing:
The Sanctuary range are all equipped with 4mm toughened safety glass as standard.  This can be altered to 6mm polycarbonate, if you wish.

Roof Vents & Louvres:
The Sanctuary greenhouses have roof vents and louvres as standard.  The number depends on the model and size chosen.  Customers are able to add additional ventilation, depending on need.  Automatic roof vent and louvre openers can also be added to your order.  The automated openers will ensure that your vents open and close automatically, depending on the temperature, keeping your plants ventilated appropriately.  We recommend the Bayliss MK7 for this greenhouse.  Unsure how automatic vents work?  Read our blog here.

Shelving/Staging:
Additional staging and shelving is available in aluminium, or any of the Elite powder-coated finishes.  The width of the staging depends on the size of greenhouse ordered and your requirements.  Staging and shelving is provided as standard with the Package Deals.

Rainwater Collection:
All of Elite greenhouses are provided with integral gutters that collect rainwater from the roof, preventing runoff and allowing for efficient collection.  To maximise the effectiveness of the integral gutters, we offer optional rainwater kits.  The standard rainwater kit includes downpipes that connect directly to the integral gutters and collect rainwater into storage tanks or water butts.  Also available is the ‘rainwater kit to one gutter‘ option, allowing users to funnel rainwater from two separate gutters into a single downpipe, ensuring that both sides of the greenhouse contribute to a centralised storage system/water butt.   It is important to note that this system can only be used at the rear of a greenhouse.  Rainwater collection kits are provided as standard with the Package Deals.

Bar Capping:
The Sanctuary greenhouse is supplied with bar capping as a standard feature.  This system provides a stronger, more secure hold for the glass and includes a rubber fin that enhances the water seal while neatly concealing the glazing clips for a cleaner, more refined finish.

Bar capping is supplied in black as standard with aluminium models. For powder-coated greenhouses, the bar capping is colour-matched to the frame.  If you would prefer an alternative colour, please specify your choice in the order notes.

Cantilevers:
Cantilevers are supplied as standard with the Sanctuary greenhouse.  They are used as eave and/or ridge bracing.  They add strength to greenhouse framework by providing additional support and rigidity. The cantilevers distribute the weight and pressure more evenly across the framework, which can be useful in areas with high wind or snow loads.

Canopy Seal:
A canopy seal is supplied as standard with the Sanctuary greenhouse.  It is used along the ridge of the greenhouse, preventing leaks, helping reduce condensation and providing a neat finish between the glazing and frame.

Powder Coating:
Greenhouses are supplied in aluminium as standard.  However, Elite have a varied range of powder-coated colours to choose from; Mocha, Brown, Graphite, White, Olive, Green, Black, Berry, Stone, Navy, Willow and Linen at an additional cost.

Cresting & Finials:
Cresting & Finials can be added to the Elite Sanctuary greenhouse and are used to enhance the overall aesthetic appeal. Cresting refers to ornamental ridge tiles or other decorative elements along the ridge of a roof, while finials are decorative ornaments typically found at the gable top.  They can also serve as a deterrent against cats and birds.  They are provided in aluminium as standard, or can be powder coated to match your greenhouse.
