    Hello,

    We are thinking of getting a greenhouse. Aluminium frame, polycarbonate panels; found that DanCoverShopdot com ships them.

    But this is county Limerick. High winds happen. How does one anchor such a greenhouse, so that it would not be torn out and thrown about by a storm ?

    My greenhouse has the corners cemented down, and it gets closed up well when there's windy weather due. Been working out great in Limerick the last few years.

    I got a KSB, left the lads to install it. They concrete down the T bars into the ground.

    Saw these and look ok might be getting them for my own one I just installed. I would recommend you do some research on the greenhouses especially the polycarbonate. The single sheet ones seem flimsy. I got the double layer one and have to stay they are strong.
