What you need

What a contractor needs from a planter supplier

  1. Sizes that fit the site, not a list

    Measure the bed, the wall or the step, and order that size. The Rectangular Planter is made to order 16–228 in long, 12–72 in wide and 11–48 in high, in 0.25 in steps. Runs longer than 114 in are built as two matched modules.

    Price your sizes
  2. A price for the bid, today

    Enter a length, width, height and quantity (up to 50 per line) and the estimator prices a Rectangular Planter on the spot. The written quote, within 24–48 hours, confirms price, freight and lead time.

    Price your sizes
  3. A date the schedule can hold

    Lead time is 2–8 weeks, depending on size and schedule. Give us the need-by date for each site. Your written quote confirms the lead time.

  4. Weight your crew can place

    Aluminum keeps planters light: a stock 40 × 12 × 20 in Rectangular Planter weighs about 25 lb empty. The planter weight calculator estimates any size empty and filled, and the load on its footprint. Your engineer checks decks and roofs.

  5. We build it; your crew installs

    FortiFab fabricates your planters in Langley, BC and ships to Canada and the United States. Your crew installs; we do not. Tell us about site access, lifting and unloading so the delivery fits your day.
