Series II: the best greenhouse value on the market today The house you need at the price you want ■ Engineered for strength; designed for efficient construction ■ Easily adapted to local structural building codes and weather conditions ■ Fabricated with low-maintenance galvanized steel frame and gutters ■ Glazed with a wide choice of economical materials Ideal for retailers and institutions-a high-quality structure at an affordable price Steel, arch-roof Patriot II greenhouses are engineered for value from the ground up. Featuring a low-maintenance, galvanized, rust-resistant frame, this strong, versatile design easily accommodates local structural building codes and climatic conditions throughout the country. Strength is designed in. Trusses attach directly to square tube columns, with all members converging at a single point atop the column-the strongest design possible. Trusses and connectors are factory-assembled and welded, ensuring consistent quality. Wide enough to walk through, the gutters are fabricated from high strength galvanized steel, and are butt-spliced and sealed to guarantee tight joints. Each structural component is selected and sized especially for your house, the loads you expect and the conditions you need. And unlike most other manufactures, we scrutinize the entire design using the latest computerized structural member analysis, and obtain the approval of independent engineers to ensure the integrity of your house. Strength doesn't mean you sacrifice flexibility. Available with 8-, 10- or 12-foot sidewalls (even higher if necessary), the house is available in four different widths. We're happy to build one house or ten, and when you need more space, the Patriot II easily expands from either side or either end. When you choose a Patriot II, we build the house to meet your requirements-but you don't pay for more house than you really need. The accumulated effect of adaptable design is affordability and long life. The broad list of options extends to glazing: energy-efficient structured sheet, convenient single- or doublelayer polyethylene, easy-to-install corrugated polycarbonate or metal-even shade cloth-means you can choose the most appropriate materials for your environment, including headhouses, classrooms and storage areas. Factory-welded, predrilled components, including trusses that attach to columns with a single bolt, keep onsite construction costs down. Galvanized steel keeps maintenance expenses to a minimum. The Patriot II combines the best of two worlds: custom features at standard prices. Strength, durability and economy are combined to create the best greenhouse value on the market today.
