Greenhouse Sidewall Automation

Automating your greenhouse roll-up sides saves time and effort, making daily ventilation adjustments simple and hassle-free. Adding a thermostat ensures consistent airflow and optimal temperature management, even when you’re not there. This system integrates seamlessly with Bootstrap Farmer's roll-up sidewall ventilation, included in their all-metal greenhouse kits and available for DIY greenhouse kits.

Choose the setup that fits your needs: manual control for hands-on operation with the push of a button or thermostat control for automated, temperature-responsive adjustments that keep your greenhouse environment consistent. Select the 60Nm motor for roll-up sides up to 100', or the 100Nm motor for sides over 100'. These options ensure efficient and effective ventilation tailored to your greenhouse setup.

This system requires 110V electricity for operation.

Bootstrap is built to last.

There are very few products out there that you buy once and it will keep on serving you. These can be reused year after year instead of ending up in the garbage can or landfill, so good for you and good for the environment. You pay a little more, but you save over time. I am absolutely sold on Bootstrap products.

Love it!

What I like about the kit is that the plastic trays and dome are made of a very sturdy material, not like the flimsy trays I have used in the past. It was difficult to move full trays when they were not rigid. These trays are quite rigid and I think will make moving them much easier. They also seem like they will hold up longer with normal usage.

It was convenient to get everything I needed for a small seed starting in one package and I didn't have to search around for all the parts. It has the mesh bottom insert that seems to be necessary for use with soil blocking, so that was a big plus to me.

I am going to try the soil blocking, so I'm excited to try the blocker. Just getting everything set up now. However, the blocker seems to be in good working order even though I haven't actually used it yet.

One thing I think would improve the website is mentioning in the item description that the plastic is much sturdier than ones mostly seen in the stores. I wasn't quite sure that it was the sturdier version, but I decided to take a chance. Just making that clearer in the description would have been helpful. (i.e. "these trays and domes aren't the flimsy version you find in most stores!") I am sure people more used to using greenhouse products know that, but people new to that might not.
