Filclair Retro – A Classic Victorian-Style Glass Greenhouse

Dreaming of a traditional Victorian-style greenhouse for your garden? The Filclair Retro combines the charm of classic garden greenhouses with a strong aluminium framework and modern finishing options.

Its narrow glazing divisions, Victorian-style ridge decoration and the option to install it on a brick or masonry plinth give the Retro a distinctive architectural character.

With a width of 3.00 metres, an overall height of 2.75 metres and a gutter height of 2.00 metres, the version with an aluminium base offers plenty of room for comfortable gardening. Its classic design makes the Retro both a practical growing space and an attractive feature in your garden.

Why Choose the Filclair Retro?

Timeless Victorian-inspired design

The narrow glazing divisions and decorative roof ridge evoke the appearance of traditional English garden greenhouses, making the Retro a distinctive feature in any garden.

Extra height and working comfort

The version with an aluminium base has a gutter height of 2.00 metres and an overall height of 2.75 metres. This provides generous headroom and additional space for taller crops such as tomatoes and cucumbers.

Installation on a masonry plinth

To emphasise its traditional appearance, the Retro can also be installed on a brick or masonry plinth. The plinth must be constructed separately by the customer. The dimensions of this version differ from those of the aluminium-base model.

Strong aluminium framework with 4 mm glass

The Retro combines a robust aluminium structure with 4 mm clear glazing as standard, providing good natural light transmission.

RAL colour finishes

The aluminium profiles are powder-coated, with different RAL colours available depending on the chosen configuration.

Modular and practical design

The greenhouse length can be adjusted in increments of 75 cm. A sliding door, roof vents and inner and outer gutters contribute to everyday convenience. The number of roof vents depends on the selected length.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Filclair Retro

What makes the Retro different from a standard glass greenhouse?

The Retro stands out through its traditional glazing divisions, decorative Victorian-style ridge and the option of installation on a masonry plinth. The aluminium-base version also offers excellent working comfort with its 2.00-metre gutter height.

The version with an aluminium base has an overall height of 2.75 metres and a gutter height of 2.00 metres. The dimensions of the masonry-plinth version depend on the selected configuration.
