After using all the clips roveded plus some spares my panels nolonger blow off during high storms . My biggest problem is that the sliding doors just blow off. Has anyone a solution?
We're quite high up and have a very exposed garden. A few years ago, a pane of toughened glass blew out from our greenhouse in a ferocious gale, the wind got in and eventually blew out quite a few panes. The whole frame eventually buckled and you can imagine the mess we had to clear up . We've never replaced it, but I now have a little potting shed instead. I do miss my greenhouse though!
I've been greenhouse gardening for over 50 years and I've found it best to open a window in windy weather as it equalises the pressure from inside to outside. If you keep your greenhouse closed up you will find the glass in blown out because of different pressures. I have never lost any glass since I started opening a window now I leave a window open all year round. And believe me it's extremely windy in Cornwall where I live.

which is best in a high wind tunnel, glass or polycarbon.
