How To Build A Greenhouse - D.I.Y. At Bunnings

a greenhouse doesn't have to be bucket loads of cash .

We're gonna make a simple one that you can move around and it's gonna have plenty of room in it for all your plants .

We're gonna take your garden area from this to this .

The good thing about a greenhouse is it can keep your gardening all year round .

I'm gonna show you how to make a real easy one today .

These are all the tools and equipment that we're gonna need to build our greenhouse .

Just a few frames , A little bit of plastic .

If you can garden , you're gonna want one of these .

I've got all my timber precut at Bunnings and I've sectioned off and labelled all of my different components to make the build easy to make the base , get the hardwood sleepers pre drill and screw together with bugle screws to make the base for the floor .

We are now gonna add our timber down to the bottom , leaving it flush on the floor .

That way , you're gonna get a nice clean fit .

Once you have your frame in , you can adj Joice for extra support .

This is going to provide the base for the flooring .

Now we have our subfloor installed .

It's now time to flip it over and put on the casters .

Use bugle screws .

There's no need to pre drill , but make sure you put the wheels with the stoppers on opposing corners to lay your floor .

Put your timber and rips side down .

Allow about 30 mil spacing just to allow the drainage to make your frame .

Make the outer frame first using the framing gun .

I know how big I want my door .

So now I just have to measure and put in my start work .

Make sure you put in the second brace to allow for the HIY .

So that's our front frame made .

Now let's go and make the door .

Make sure your noggins are flushed to the front of the door to attach your hinges .

To build this side , make a frame and put a stud in the middle .

Repeat the process for the other two frames .

Once you've built your framework , it's time to put the plastic on .

Wrap your frames in plastic and fix it off .

Make sure you're wearing gloves and make sure you attach plastic to the inside of the frame so it looks nice from the outside , So now we have all of our sides in our front wrapped .

It's now time to attach the hinges .

Screw the hinges down to the side joists and attach your pad .

Bolt to the front .

Now the frame's almost finished .

Attach the frame to the base using bugle screws .

It's a little bit tricky , so you might need an extra pair of hands to fix the patterns to your roof .

Arrange them in descending sizes so you get run off on the back .

Transfer your measurements from your greenhouse onto some polycarbonate roofing .

Mark it with a bit of masking tape and cut to size .

I'm using a metal blade on a medium setting on the jigsaw to allow for a clean cut .

I have measured mine out with a little bit of overhang at the front and at the back to allow rain to fall off .

Last thing we have to do is attach our roof to our greenhouse .

We're gonna use some roofing screws .

To do that .

Attach your screws into the crest of the corrugate .

You only need to do this every second one .

So there you have it .

A fantastic little greenhouse .

Let's go and find a place for it in the backyard .

So we have created our own nice , warm environment for all of our plants .
