Great product, a little pricey

Great product and I've used them now for a second time. It's just unfortunate how much the price has increased. I've now replaced the glass panels of around three quarters of my greenhouse and it's cost a lot more than a new (glass) greenhouse - but hopefully they'll survive, unlike the glass. I may still need more and I'd use these again.

I needed to replace a shattered glass panel in my greenhouse - broken by a small stone spat out by my lawnmower. I decided to go the acrylic route, and The Plastic People made this very easy. I bought two in case there is another small piece of gravel lurking in the lawn. The pane fitted perfectly.

Fantastic

Very easy to order online with good guides to tell us about how to work out the correct sizing etc. Great communication by the company too. the frame we ordered arrived perfectly on time and well wrapped with no damage (we ordered an extremely large perspex frame). The frame was easy to mount and looks fantastic.
