    Hi all

    We are in the process of erecting a 12' x 10' greenhouse - but we are short of the aluminium strips that retain the glass.

    I've not come across this type before - can anyone identify these and point me toward a possible supplier? We have no idea who manufactured the greenhouse.

    Many thanks!

    Not seen that type before, but it looks as though it should be easy to source from any metal fabricators really - do you have any fabricators/machine shops near you?

    Having researched this further - it appears the greenhouse could be a Robinsons model. I'll contact them to see of they can confirm. In the meantime we do have some other clips we can try.

    Many thanks!
