Where do I get the clips to hold glass in greenhouse?

[northepaul]

I hope this doesnt sound like a dumb question?
We have been given a greenhouse at the allotment, its a metal framed one, but it has several pains of glass missing and also no clips to hold any glass in.
Not ever having had one before, I went to B&Q, thinking it would just be a case of buying a packet.....not so. I looked everywhere and when I couldnt find them, I asked at the 'help desk', (or no help desk as the case maybe,) but they just looked at me blankly and told me to speak to the manufacturer......

So can someone give me any advice?

Thanks

I bought my last lot at a Garden Centre but I think I've seen them in Wilkos since!
Lucky you to get a greenhouse though!!

Fleabay is a good source as well

Thanks - no wilkos that close, but at least I know what they look like and importantly whats they're called.

I think I have some spare, I will have a look for you tomorrow if you've not bought them by then (can't get in my garage atm, as it's full of junk from house works going on).

B&Q depot ask for a green house maintainence kit. They do have them was looking at some last week.

If you have a wyvale garden center near you they sell them there too.

There are different types of clips, have a look at yours then check here to get the correct name then just look on fleabay or similar.

I wouldnt know which type - does it matter? (There werent any with the greenhouse as it was dissassembled)

I have just read the page BM - I have no idea of the make of greenhouse. Thanks for sending the link.
Also I was just going to buy some glass - not anything in particular......This is more complicated than I thought....

Thank you Chris for the offer.

The spring clips that hold the glass in place vertically, into the frame are 2 distinct types. In the past I've always used the sprung metal ones but, the last free greenhouse came with the W shaped Wire ones and they seemed to be easier to fit. I don't know what others think!

erp - forgot. :P As is usual. Have made a note, I def have a bag of them somewhere..
