Modular Staging for Greenhouse
Modular staging for greenhouses are available in many types. The features of the Two Wests & Elliott staging unit can be used as a guide for comparing other units.
Two Wests & Elliott Deluxe Green Modular Staging Corner Pack
This design has hardwearing green powder coated finish. This makes them ideal for use on both conservatories and up-market greenhouses. The coating also helps tidy the surface to keep the unit in good condition.
It is made from high grade, rot resistant aluminum. The design also uses few components to make the structure stable. Because fewer parts are used, the assembling and disassembling is easier too.
Every module has two trays measuring 23″ (58.5cm) x 20″ (51cm). These are fastened to the legs (30″ / 76cm high). Together they make either an even surface or 2″ (5cm) deep trays. The tray would be 8″ (20cm) from the floor surface.
These two lower trays provide more space for growing and storage. They also fortify the structure. The modules come with black covers for the bolts to shelter the tray. The modules are available in the following packs.
Packs
The starter pack comes with the four corner legs. This will be needed to start a staging run or stand alone unit. The extension pack comes with the middle legs and they are suitable for fusing with other units. The corner pack is equipped with just one corner leg and mid leg. This is only for taking the unit on a corner.
Tips on Buying Modular Staging for Greenhouses
You can buy these modular staging units from the Net. You can also look for them in gardening centers and stores that sell greenhouse equipment. These units come in different sizes and shapes.
Go over the dimensions carefully so you can pick the right type. The costs of these items also vary, so check different sites. The tier setup and finish will also vary per manufacturer.
Make sure you follow the instructions on how to set up the unit. Also pay attention to the contents of the various packs. Make sure you only get the one that you need.
Also check where the units are best used. Some are made for greenhouses only. Others are made for use outdoors, sheds or conservatories.
Other Considerations
There are many types of staging units, but their function is the same. You use them to position the plants in the best places for them, be it to get shade or more sunlight. Here the tier setup will also come into play.
Of course the location of the unit is important. Even a well designed staging unit will be useless if it is set up in the wrong place. You need to keep this in mind when shopping for staging. There are also many staging accessories available, but make sure you really need them before buying.
Modular staging for greenhouses will serve you well provided you make the right choice. Spend some time learning about how the units work, so you can make the appropriate purchase.
