Appointment of greenhouses with an opening roof
Greenhouse construction made of polycarbonate may suffer from winter temperatures. On flat and inclined surfaces formed frost, which prevents convergence of snowfall. As a result, the coating can not withstand such a load and flex. This trouble can happen even with the most robust designs. If not snowy embankment coating will break, then in any case overload will adversely affect its durability
Winter garden with folding roof is a perfect solution if you are unable to regularly clean the top of the snow.
The greenhouse is endowed with such a plan and other benefits:
- In winter, the ground will get snowfall, which will increase the level of humidity and saturate the desired salts.
- In summer you can replace the traditional irrigation portion of the rain.
- In the warm time of year, the plants will be able to be ventilated.
Frame with an opening roof is not much higher than usual. With its assembly and disassembly does not occur too much difficulty.
Types of greenhouses Top opening
Depending on the construction of the mechanism of polycarbonate convertibles are divided into two types:
- Folding. Flap-lid open on hinges and are secured in the raised position by means of props.
- Sliding. Removable sections are connected and go on a mini-rails. In the open state greenhouse movable parts are superimposed on the rest of the elements.
Important! both structures are managed in manual or mechanical mode.
- The automated system includes the opening and closing of the roof. With it you can save a lot of time and effort. It can be supplemented with a temperature-sensitive switch. If you install a simple system to move the roof will have to manually winch or other simple mechanism.
Greenhouses with a roof, which folds are classified into varieties depending on the form:
- Arch. Such structures are simple to install. Provide efficient heating plants. Not suitable for growing taller plants. Operated roof to simplify the process of ventilation.
- Gable. Construction with a roof, have a long service life due to its strength.
- Shed. Can be used as an extension to the basic construction. In these greenhouses plants suffer from lack of light. A small angle of slope of the roof is not adversely affected its strength characteristics.
- In the form of droplets. Resemble semicircular. Curved ramps replaced flat faces which dock at the top at a predetermined angle. The slope of strengthening the foundation of the greenhouse.
- Kupelnye. They are based on the triangular faces. It creates favorable conditions for plants. It helps keep the warmth and good light scattering.
Installation of greenhouses Top opening: preparation and the start of work
First of all, decide to place the location of the greenhouse construction. The site should be flat, and the presence of tubercles deviation is unacceptable. It is also important to take into account the depth of the groundwater. It is not necessary to install a greenhouse near the buildings and the trees - they will shade it, and plants receive less light. Add a greenhouse is necessary so that you can freely approach to it on each side.
Important! The optimum size of a greenhouse:. Width - 10 m, length - any height - 2 m in this greenhouse, you'll be able to engage in the cultivation of vegetables, seedlings of other plants, fruit trees and shrubs.
Greenhouses are fixed and collapsible. If the choice is made in favor of the first option, it will have to consolidate on the foundation. Next you need to make a drawing. Our publication is supplemented with photos and videos, so you can choose the model that suits you.
Various materials can be used for manufacture of the carcass. Which of them prefer depends on the purpose of the greenhouse. Suitable for light construction, galvanized or plastic moldings, wood. For large installations require metal profile. This option will be ideal for manufacturers of buildings collapsible type. Use pipe 20x40 mm cross section for the pillars and 20x20 mm for the rest.
Tip! Experienced gardeners recommend the use of a rectangular cross section profile. Since it should not be difficult at the time of installation.
Installation of greenhouse Top opening
To make a greenhouse, prepare the following tools:
electric jigsaw;
- drill;
- grinders;
- screwdriver;
- roulette
If you have planned an arched structure, need bender. As suitable fasteners bolts, cross connection. Connect all the elements of the greenhouse by means of welding is impractical because it will not be able to analyze them in the future.
If the design provides for a foundation, make it fill. the frame assembly are carried out according to the scheme. To further strengthen the skeleton of the greenhouse require ribs. After it is assembled, pay attention to hinged roof.
One of the removable side folding roof is fixed on the hinge and prop used for a shutter. For a large greenhouse, you can approach the rail. Its basis will be the rail profile.
You need:
- Collect the part that will be moved.
- Attach bracket with wheels.
Tip! The size of the greenhouse the size of the rail depends on a mechanism with wheels.
If you have installed a compact greenhouse rail alternative mechanism may be grooves. The framework will be real, open and close will polycarbonate plate:
- Attach Well arc strip width of 7-10 cm.
- Prepare a polycarbonate sheet with an overlap of 40 cm.
- Above the sheet lay plastic lining (length 1.5-3 cm, 0.5-1.5 cm width.
- Lay a piece of plastic on top of the polycarbonate.
- Collect design, using a covering material.
Regardless of what type of greenhouse you are using in a closed form, it must be sealed. In the greenhouse, convertibles need to lay a layer of sealant. All actions with mountings have to be careful. Thus you will be able to maintain the integrity of the material.
