Description
The Gabriel Ash Classic Grow & Store greenhouse is a versatile and beautifully crafted structure that combines the functionality of a traditional greenhouse with the practicality of a storage shed. This dual-purpose design makes it ideal for gardeners who need both a growing space and a convenient area for storing tools, pots, and gardening supplies. Like all Gabriel Ash products, the Grow & Store greenhouse is constructed using premium Western Red Cedar wood and toughened safety glass, ensuring durability, natural beauty, and high performance.
This model also allows for customisation, such as adding cedar panels or folding cedar shelving to enhance usability. The Grow and Store is part of Gabriel Ash’s RHS-endorsed collection, a testament to its quality and attention to detail.
Endorsed by the RHS:
The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) is the UK’s foremost gardening charity, dedicated to making gardening a way of life for all. With a mission to enhance lives through plants, the RHS aims to foster healthier lifestyles, build stronger communities, and create vibrant, sustainable environments. By supporting the gardening journey of individuals at all stages, the RHS strives to make the UK greener and more beautiful. Only the finest licensed products and carefully selected partners receive the RHS endorsement, which recognises Gabriel Ash’s unwavering commitment to quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and premium materials in their greenhouse designs. Gabriel Ash greenhouses have proudly been RHS-endorsed for over a decade.
Base:
The greenhouse is supplied with an aluminium base plinth as standard.
Doors:
The greenhouse is supplied with two doors. The first is the entry door, leading into the shed compartment and the second is an internal door between the greenhouse and shed.
Glass:
The greenhouse is fitted with full sheet toughened safety glass as standard.
Roof Vents & Louvres:
The Gabriel Ash range of greenhouses do not have roof vents, but rather, sash windows to the sides of the greenhouse. The number increases with the size of greenhouse:
- 6ft & 8ft long with one window
- 10ft, 12ft, 14ft & 16ft long with two windows
- 18ft & 20ft long with three windows
Louvres can be added to your order according to your preferences.
Automatic Ventilation:
The Classic and RHS collections are supplied with unique full ridge automatic ventilation. Gabriel Ash Classic and RHS greenhouses have a unique automatic ridge ventilation system which runs the full length of your greenhouse. This provides ventilation at the highest point in the greenhouse where it is needed. This system is operated automatically by wax filled actuators. When it is warm the wax in the cylinders expands pushing the vent up. The Grow & Store also has an internal door separating the greenhouse and shed, allowing you to better control the temperature within the greenhouse. As above, louvres can be added to provide additional ventilation, if required.
Shelving/Staging:
The Deluxe Folding Cedar Shelving and staging is made from solid Western Red Cedar and can be positioned on either side of the greenhouse (or both). The shelving is positioned at eye-level and the staging as waist/kitchen counter height. Both the staging and shelving can be folded away when not required, maximising the internal space.
Rainwater Collection:
The greenhouse is provided with metal gutters and 1½” (40mm) down pipes that collect rainwater from the roof, preventing runoff and allowing for efficient collection. These standard aluminium pipes are easily adapted to fit waterbutts.
Panelling:
On All Gabriel Ash Classic Structures, cedar panels may be fitted instead of glass at a moderate cost.
Fixings:
High quality solid brass and stainless steel fixtures.
Blinds:
The Gabriel Ash roller blinds are grey in colour and are specifically designed for greenhouse use, offering a combination of practical shading and easy functionality. These blinds are crafted from durable synthetic materials and are made to fit neatly within Gabriel Ash’s greenhouse structures. This helps to maintain a cooler interior environment, which protects plants from excessive heat during warmer months.
These blinds use a spring-loaded mechanism for convenient adjustment, allowing for flexibility in temperature and light control. They are tailored to fit the cedar framework of Gabriel Ash’s greenhouse models, and are part of their RHS-endorsed collection, aligning with high standards in quality and eco-conscious materials.
Treatment:
Western Red Cedar contains its own natural preservatives, giving your greenhouse a long life span without the need for treatment. Cedar will mellow to a silvery grey over time; if you wish to prevent your greenhouse from greying and maintain or change its original colour we can provide treatments or there are several proprietary brands on the market that are suitable. Western Red Cedar absorbs stains and oils readily. Should you choose to treat your Classic or RHS greenhouse you will not need to get up on the roof of your greenhouse since these are protected by aluminium cappings.
Warranty:
The greenhouse is provided with a 12-year warranty.
