POLYTUNNEL
Flexible, Efficient, Reliably Controlled
Polytunnels are the cost-effective alternative in modern horticulture – lightweight, flexible, and quick to set up. They provide ideal conditions for vegetable cultivation, berries, ornamentals, bedding plants and young plants, offering extensive growing areas with comparatively low investment costs.
A particularly common design is the multi-tunnel: several connected polytunnels that together create a spacious, open production area. This structure makes excellent use of space, ensures good ventilation, and is easy to expand – perfect for growers who are scaling up dynamically or producing seasonally.
Polytunnels only reach their full potential with precise climate control. That’s where Lock comes in: our drive systems for ventilation and shading keep temperature, light, and air circulation perfectly regulated at all times. The result: healthy plants, stable yields, and efficient operation - day after day, season after season.

Ventilation
In polytunnel greenhouses, effective air circulation is vital for healthy crops and high yields. Ventilation is typically achieved through side roll-up systems and natural roof openings, allowing growers to react quickly to changing weather conditions. Lock products provide safe, reliable, and maintenance-free ventilation control. With integrated automatic shutdown, sensors, and climate control, they protect crops from sudden temperature fluctuations, minimize energy waste, and create optimal growing conditions – all while ensuring durability and efficiency in the flexible design of a polytunnel.
No expensive repairs, annoying operating noises, loss of yield or failure due to faulty drive technology: that is the Lock quality promise.

Shading / Energy Screen
Shading and darkening systems specifically for multitunnels protect plants from excessive radiation, boost yields, and cut energy costs by using resources only when needed.
The key to efficiency is the right drive technology. Lock products are the first choice: maintenance-free, reliable, precise, and designed for smooth, low-speed operation – ensuring sustainable and efficient greenhouse management.

The best known and most common form of umbrella systems for optimal climate control.
Control system
Today, intelligent systems make it possible to automatically control the climate, among other things, for the benefit of plants in greenhouses. The integration of digital control systems in greenhouses offers a modern and sustainable solution for gardeners.
Precise control of the climate not only improves plant growth and health, but also increases the efficiency and profitability of operations. In addition to our LSR ventilation controller, we have created a modular, all-encompassing, digital total solution for an ideal greenhouse climate with the Lock SBE farm management system.
LSR control
To ensure reliable climate control for your greenhouse, we offer you our tried-and-tested ventilation controller, which allows you to react quickly and cost-effectively to temperature, wind and rain.
SBE Farm-Management-System
In the field of agriculture, the intelligent, smart system from Lock is a big step into the future – for the benefit of people, animals and plants.
