Hi I am trying to fix up a glass house and I need the panes and hooks to hold the pains. Can anyone tell me the names of the hooks in photos and where I might get panes now every where is closed?

OK and the ones in the second photo? Also the rubber seal stuff that goes around the frame?
 
W clips can you guess why?:whistle:
Rubber seal can be tricky best to identify the greenhouse maker first.(y)

Can you get away with not using the rubber seal? I had a few pains laying around and seem to go in with only minimum gap? Also will clear perspex do the job for the missing panes?
 
Clear perspex as long as it is UV stablised is ideal
 
Most greenhouses have a badge somewhere often on or over the door.
 
No badge over door just a number. 8611

You can get W clips from Amazon. May be under Greenhouse glass Clips, (as I've just been advised by my lovely wife, LOL).
Pity you didn't post this about a month ago. I dismantled my greenhouse after severe storm damage and had 2 bags, (200), of them spare but threw them out with the GH.
Cheap as chips to buy.
 
That's great I will check amazon. Back to the rubber seal. Can I carry on and put the panes In without the rubber seal.?
 
Door looks similar to the old Halls greenhouse I used to have try looking at Halls spare seals to see if they are the same. Without some kind of seal the clips will not hold well and the glass may crack.
