ABOUT JANSSENS & THE JUNIOR VICTORIAN Manufacturer: Janssens NV (Janssens Alusystems) Country of Manufacture: Belgium Established: 1946 Belgian Greenhouse Craftsmanship Since 1946 Founded by Constant Janssens in 1946, Janssens has grown from a family workshop into an internationally recognized greenhouse manufacturer. Now spanning three generations, the company combines traditional Belgian craftsmanship with modern engineering and precision manufacturing at its facility in Lier, Belgium. Janssens specializes in durable aluminum greenhouses designed for long-term performance and timeless architectural appeal. Its greenhouse construction emphasizes strong aluminum profiles, tempered safety glass, durable seals, and corrosion-resistant hardware. What Makes the Junior Victorian Different The Janssens Junior Victorian Series brings the classic elegance of European Victorian greenhouse design to smaller gardens. Available in three practical sizes, it combines decorative roof detailing, jet-black aluminum framing, full-length tempered glass, integrated rainwater drainage, and automatic roof ventilation. Compared with the larger Royal Victorian models, the Junior Victorian offers a more compact footprint while retaining the distinctive architectural character and quality construction associated with Janssens greenhouses. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What is the difference between J-VIC 23, J-VIC 24, and J-VIC 25? The primary differences are length, growing area, and the number of included roof vents. J-VIC 23 measures 7ft 8in × 10ft 2in and includes one automatic roof vent. J-VIC 24 measures 7ft 8in × 12ft 6in and includes two. J-VIC 25 measures 7ft 8in × 15ft and also includes two automatic roof vents. Does the greenhouse include tempered safety glass? Yes. All three standard models include 4mm tempered glass glazing secured with rubber glazing seals. Do the automatic roof vents require electricity? No. The included heat-activated roof vent openers operate without an electrical connection. Is a foundation included? Each model includes a 4-inch-high aluminum foundation frame. A suitable level foundation and proper anchoring are still required. Concrete or other site preparation is not included in the greenhouse kit. Can I use the Junior Victorian greenhouse year-round? Yes, with climate management appropriate to your location. Heating may be required during cold weather, while ventilation and shading can help manage summer temperatures. The standard single-glass configuration is not an insulated, climate-controlled building. Can I order another frame color? The standard listed configuration is jet black. Other frame colors may be available by special order. Contact MyGreenhouseStore at 888-648-5333 for availability, pricing, and estimated lead times. What if you don't have the length I want listed? The sizes listed here are standard models we offer. If you want a different length, we may be able to arrange a special-order configuration for you. Contact MyGreenhouseStore at 888-648-5333 for a free consultation. Can I install the greenhouse myself? The greenhouse is supplied as an assembly kit. Installation requires careful foundation preparation, glass handling, and assembly according to the manufacturer's instructions. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with this type of structure. What warranty is included? The Junior Victorian is covered by a limited warranty of up to 15 years on the aluminum frame and stainless steel hardware, and up to 10 years for qualifying defects in materials and workmanship. Coverage is subject to the terms and exclusions in the applicable warranty document.
