    There's nowt to stop you using the same plastic clips for fastening wire. If you want something stronger, make some 90 degree metal bars, drill a hole in each end. Fasten one end to the greenhouse frame with a nut & bolt, attach your wire through the other end.

            When fitting them, make sure the peg turns as they have a habit of staying put while you twist the top.

                They look brilliant! I use those cropped bolts with a ring on the end. They are great but are super pricey!

                  What are the wires to support?

                  I string my tomatos to wires and the weight of 6 vines can be significant, so those plastic things wont last.

                  My GH is aluminium framed so I set a depth of 3mm on my drill (to prevent going through the glass) and made a hole at each end in the eve, poked wire through and doubled it over twisting to secure it.

                  Crude but strong and efficient.
