Dow Corning glazing silicone on mine and touch wood haven't lost a panel yet and its gone through 3 winters. As an added benefit it also stops any water getting into the glazing channels thereby preventing corrosion.

OK two more things if you could help with these, i've put the doors together put them in place they run smooth as silk, but they dont fit on the bottom runner!!!! it's as if they are to short its about 5mm out which means slightest breeze and they flap around cant see anyway to adjust the bottom either?
Also when windows are in place even though they are closed the slightest breeze and they open about 2 inches currently have the hinges tied down with string!! if you need pics to clarify what i mean then let me know and i'll take them.
I really do appreciate the advice and encouragement you have all given.
I cant picture your windows Mick but I do have a similar problem with my door, I just put a brick against. Not ideal but it works.

Have you tried slackening the bolts/clips holding the channel that the window support runs in then closing the window and tightening them back up ? It looks like the window is not being allowed down far enough and is still under tension.

When I bought mine it didn't specify if it was for a particular greenhouse. If you search for a generic one, it should tell you whether it fits most greenhouses.
