Yahoo Answers For Greenhouse Frames

Question is there a website where i can buy aluminum or steel frames for a greenhouse?
is there a website where i can buy aluminum or steel frames(tubing) for a greenhouse? that looks somewhat like this http://www.igcusa.com/Commercial/Coldframe/CFL-14.jpg but i would like the greenhouse to be 30ftwide by 100ftlong, can anyone help me plz tx. i just wanna order the frame ill get the plastic later,i wanna atleast get a price estimate.

Best Answer That's one hefty size-more like commercial. Here are some sites that I found: http://www.greenhousecatalog.com/greenhouse_frames.php http://www.growerssolution.com/page/GS/CTGY/Quonset http://www.minigreenhouse.biz/site/758739/page/285890 I do not see any there of the size you mention and you may be well advised to make it in various parts because longer sections might not have sufficient strength. That latter is also important because even if you require no added heat, you will want to allow some controlled ventilation to prevent fungus.

Question Why aren't greenhouse frames painted and why don't they rust?
This is a question that my father wants to know for his gardening

Best Answer they are made from a non-ferrous metal, this means theres no iron in them, and metals need iron to rust for example, steel will rust because its made from an iron mixture, whereas aluminium wont, because it has only aluminium in it, no iron.
