Sliding Door Options for Aluminium Greenhouses
Choosing a Door for Your Bloomcabin Aluminium Greenhouse
When planning a greenhouse, one feature shapes everyday use and presentation: the door. For compact garden structures and freestanding models alike, the selected door affects airflow, access and comfort.
The Bloomcabin range includes premium aluminium greenhouses with flexible door arrangements for varied garden sites. This guide compares both choices offered across the classic aluminium greenhouses and explains where each works best.
Bloomcabin Aluminium Greenhouse Door Options
The online configurator lets you choose your preferred door arrangement:
1. Single Sliding Door
This neat, space-efficient choice comes as standard with most Bloomcabin greenhouses.
- Space-saving: Works well in smaller gardens or beside a wall.
- Simple operation: Slides smoothly along its track.
- Contemporary appearance: Complements aluminium frames and any garden style.
Best suited to:
- Small to medium gardens
- Lean-tos or restricted sites
- Gardeners wanting low maintenance
2. Double Sliding Door
This option is available on larger models around 310 cm wide.
- Wider entry: Ideal for equipment, benches or furniture.
- Effective ventilation: Both sides can be opened.
- Balanced appearance: A stylish garden feature.
Recommended for:
- Larger gardens
- Dedicated gardeners
- Gardeners valuing practicality and visual appeal
Benefits of Sliding Doors
- Space-saving without swing clearance
- Improved airflow supporting plant growth
- Elegant appearance with contemporary styling
- Weather-resistant design, suited to Australia's varied weather
Compatible vent openers and security locks add convenience and protection.
Door Placement Tips
- Consider north or north-east, adjusted for local light and heat
- Shelter from wind
- Keep paths, water and equipment accessible
A single door generally suits wall-mounted greenhouses; freestanding designs often favour double doors.
Seasonal Considerations
- Summer: Double doors improve airflow
- Winter: Single doors seal more easily
Vents, shade or insulation panels improve climate control.
Avoid Common Mistakes
- Insufficient clearance beside the greenhouse
- Uneven or soft ground
- Ignoring local climate
- No locking provision
- Poor door sizing
