What you need

What a patio needs from its planters

  1. Planters that follow the patio line

    Edge the dining area, wrap a corner or fill the space between tables. 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. Ready for opening day

    Lead time is 2–8 weeks, depending on size and schedule. Tell us the opening date when you ask for a quote. Your written quote confirms the lead time.

  3. A finish that fits the room

    Match the frontage, the furniture or the brand. Stock sizes come in Semi-Gloss Black or Semi-Gloss White. Made-to-order sizes add Fine-Texture Black and Textured Silver Vein, or a custom RAL colour on quote.

  4. Light enough to place on a deck

    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 contractor confirms what the deck can carry.

  5. Screens as well as planters

Questions

Before you ask for a quote

How long do made-to-order planters take?

2–8 weeks, depending on size and schedule. Your written quote confirms the lead time for your sizes and dates.

What colours can we choose?

Stock sizes come in Semi-Gloss Black or Semi-Gloss White. Made-to-order sizes add Fine-Texture Black and Textured Silver Vein, or a custom RAL colour on quote. Your quote or order confirms the finish.

Do you install the planters?

No. We fabricate and ship; your contractor or crew installs. Tell us about site access, lifting and unloading so we can plan the delivery.

How heavy is a planter once it is planted?

It depends on the size and the soil. The planter weight calculator estimates the empty and filled weight of a Rectangular Planter and the load on its footprint. Your engineer confirms what a deck or roof can carry. Planter weight calculator
