The handmade planters are fantastic on your window, rooftop, patio, drive, balcony, anywhere you need a splash of colour! A great addition to your garden decor and custom made!
These hard wearing, recycled, repurposed roofing sheets have become unique handmade metal planters add that splash of colour, and of course I don't sell to garden centres, I make the majority to order, so these aren't mass produced you can be assured that not everyone in your neighbourhood will own them as well!
The material is 0.7mm gauge, high quality roofing material (usually seen on industrial roofs & cladded side walls) it is either plastisol coated with a leather grain effect
This planter has a black rubber safety edge on the top rim, it is hand riveted in place with matching rivets (if available otherwise plain uncoated ones are used) on the two back seams, the base can be riveted in place ,or the 3 unsecured sides are left loose for drainage.
They are are of a sturdy construction, being all coated steel however NOT waterproof.
I would recommend you line the inside with a pond liner or even just some household tin foil prior to planting.
The planter in stock and available for immediate despatch is as pictured, however other colours are can be made available, as are other quantities.

If you are UK, but Offshore and would like to order a planter, please message me prior to buying as the postage is much higher than UK Mainland, I am not able to absorb it I won't ever over charge, but I would appreciate a small contribution.
All of the planters are handmade, in Grantham Lincolnshire using prime industrial roofing materials, many are made from material which would of otherwise been destined for the scrap metal bin, this does mean the the finished item may have the odd scratch or dent but nothing detrimental to its planter use, these off cuts are from the roofing sheets, and cladding materials which we supply to both the general public and the industrial roofing trade.
Items made from metal which otherwise would of been scrapped are photographed, and available for immediate despatch, the prices also reflect the reduced cost of the raw material.
I make this point, because I am more than happy to accept custom requests for bespoke sizes and colours, but it must be understood that I may have to use prime material (not off cuts) which will impact the cost of the item.

I would like Drainage Holes adding, is this possible?
I am not able to add drainage holes to the Planters or Window Boxes any longer, they aren’t really needed. Please do remember that the planters in most cases are only fixed on 1 base edge, and loose on the other 3 so drainage holes are unnecessary hence not offered as standard.
Custom and personalised orders
I can certainly do custom orders, please be aware however, the material may need to be ordered in especially so the price may be more than the planters in the shop, also I am not a robot so please allow a degree of tolerance with the measurements -/+5mm I do may best but sometimes the metal doesn’t play ball :)
Obviously, unless a serious error has been made, or damage in transit custom orders are non returnable.
