Color - The Cathedral is available directly from Janssens in five colors, beige (RAL 9006), black (RAL 9005), dark green (RAL 6009), dark gray (RAL 7016), and pure white (RAL 9010). Any other custom color is available for an additional cost.

Extra Door - An extra single or double sliding door can be added to back or side of the greenhouse to provide extra access and cross ventilation for your greenhouse. In addition an extra single or double hinged doors can be added to the greenhouse. In fact these extra doors can go on any side of the greenhouse.

Extra Waterproofing - As this structure uses single pane glass, it is designed for use as high end greenhouse or a tea room style of pavilion with outdoor furniture. It is virtually 99% watertight, but is not absolutely watertight, so it is not recommended for use with electronics such permanently installed televisions or computers.

With all single pane glass structures, unless strict temperature and humidity control systems are installed, the interior can be prone to condensation at certain times of the year in parts of the country, particularly in the fall. High humidity and fast changing temperatures, such as during dawn and dusk, also can cause excess condensation.

The installation team can spend much extra time caulking every individual piece so that the completed structure is virtually 99.9% watertight, and this will add perhaps an entire extra day of installation time.

Installation - The Cathedral can be installed on site by Exaco's expert staff. Two team members will travel to your location and assemble the entire structure in 2-3 days. The customer is responsible for site preparation and moving the greenhouse components to the site. A concrete foundation is ideal as specified in the manual.

Louver Window - Extra louver windows are available for this Victorian greenhouse to provide additional ventilation. Automatic Louver Window Openers that function just like the automatic roof vent openers are also available, as are Louver Window Lexan Covers, clear covers for the louver window to keep the greenhouse sealed during the winter.












































Victorian Slat Shelving - The most affordable shelving for Victorian greenhouses comes in 2-slat or 5-flat sizes and in green or black. The 2-slat shelving is 9" wide x 59" long and the 5-slat shelving is 21" wide x 59" long.











Threshold - The standard threshold at the double hinged doors of the Cathedral greenhouse is 4.5" as this is the size of the integrated base frame around the perimeter of the structure. Customers will keep the standard threshold if they prefer the look of a uniform base around the entire greenhouse. The Cathedral has an option of a lowered hinged door. This means that each door is almost 4" longer at the bottom so that there is almost no threshold, just a 1" high angle bar for support.

Wheelbarrow Access Plate - A heavy-duty aluminum access plate is available to serve as a ramp for wheelbarrows over the threshold of your greenhouse. The plate is 21" long on each side x 19.5" wide x 1.75" high in the middle where it is hinged.

For over 70 years, Janssens NV has been engineering, manufacturing, and distributing premium greenhouses throughout the world. The company began as a maker of wooden arches for greenhouses, sports venues, and factories and was founded by Constant Janssens. He was soon joined by his son Rene, and later Rene's son, Peter, who joined the Engineering and Technical Services department.

The 300 square meter factory Constant began with was later expanded to 1250 square meters in 1962, only to be doubled just a few years after that. By 1996, the company's development and design department had become fully computerized to ensure that all structures were engineered in the most efficient manner possible.

In 2009, even more automated production equipment was introduced and now 70% of their structures are exported from Belgium to the rest of Europe and the United States.

Today the Janssens state of the art factory is approximately 6500 square meters large and employs all the latest quality control techniques and aluminum processing equipment to ensure the very highest build quality.

Exaco Trading Co. began in 1987 as importer and distributor of a home paint mixing accessory called the Exomixer. Since then the family owned company has expanded its line considerably to include many different home and garden products, including some of the very best greenhouses from Europe. The company is led by CEO Kimberly Tyson Cook, formerly an award winning business reporter for the Austin American-Statesman, and Andrew Cook, the VP of Sales and Marketing.

Andrew travels to Europe to check on the manufacturers in person several times a year and has become a leading national authority on all things greenhouse related. He has appeared in many gardening articles and television programs nationally. In fact Andrew is available for phone support for customers during the installation of any of the premier greenhouses that Exaco distributes from its large Austin, TX warehouse.
