    QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

    Ask a Question
    • I am putting up hoop houses in a high wind area. Rope and strapping are used in addition to wiggle wire. Any particular kind of rope and where do I find the strapping material?


      We use paracord on our greenhouses.  We purchase directly from here: http://www.parachute-cord.com/1000cord.htm

      If you also need strapping we don't have a great source for this currently.  It is something we may start producing ourselves in the next 2-3 months.  Best source I could find is here:  https://goo.gl/Rzm8CJ most importantly you want to make sure the strapping is UV treated so it doesn't degrade your greenhouse plastic.

    • Do you sell the wiggle wire channels in longer lengths, I need to span arches that are 4' on center, a 12', or 24' length would work great

      No the 6.5' length is the only size we carry.

    • I am using 13oz vinyl tarp, will this work for that thickness?

      As long as the material is under 20 mil. in thickness it will fit.

    • I read that PVC will out gas chlorine that denigrates the plastic cover and drys out the cover prematurely I have painted all my pipes so to make a barrier how will the wire affect out expensive covers?

      The PVC coating on the wire doesn't have any off gassing.  Primarily because it's a very thin coat on the wire and by the time we have it ready for sale any off gassing would have already happened.  The PVC pipe is also problematic because of the rubbing on the pipe in conjunction with the offgassing.  The plastic will have some movement on the pvc pipe whereas the wire is very static.  The wire also covers up the plastic so there is no UV damage to that area however where the PVC tubing is on the plastic is fully exposed to the UV exposure.  The off gassing of the PVC primarily degrades the UV projection rather than the plastic itself. 

       

    • I am ready to order the 150x54 greenhouse plastic (for 30x100 foot frame) and am wondering if you can tell me what I need to install it properly? Thanks

      Really all you need in most cases is the spring wire and channel.  For the linear feet you will at least need 200 feet plus the end hoops and baseboard.  You also probably need to account for any door frames as well.

    • Could you please tell me how much track and wiggle wire do I need for a 12x40 green house? thx u

      If just need it on the baseboard and end hoops you need 30 pieces of spring wire and lock channel.  If you have both a hipboard and baseboard you will need 44 pieces of wire and channel.

    • Will this work to secure a 15 mil used billboard tarp,or is that too thick?

      Yes it should.  Many of our customers use multiple layers of our 6 mil plastic along with shade cloth without any issues.

    • When it says 100 pack , does it mean 100 of each piece , or 50 channels , and 50 wires ?

      It means 100 pieces of lock channel and 100 pieces of the spring wire

    • DO YOU DELIVERY TO CANADA

      Due to operational and logistical issues we are not shipping internationally at this time.  We have had numerous problems with shipping companies and customs in regards to delivery time and fees, making it quite the headache for our customers (and ourselves).

    • Due to limited space, We're building a 10x16 hoop house. We are located in Wyoming where it can get very windy. Im having trouble figuring out how many I would need. What do you recommend?

      Please give our tech team a call. They can help you decide what you will need. 888-406-1982 ext. 1
