View full detailsWhat are good Corten steel planters on legs?
Good Corten steel planters on legs are distinguished by a solid construction in which the legs are seamlessly integrated with the planter. The steel must be at least 2 mm thick to bear the pressure of the soil and the weight of the plants without deforming. High-quality models have legs that are high enough for good air circulation under the planter, which is essential for the lifespan of your patio and the planter itself. When purchasing, also pay attention to the finish of the welds on the inside and the presence of drainage holes in the bottom. A good high-legged planter made of Corten steel combines aesthetics with a technically well-thought-out design for years of outdoor enjoyment.
Why choose a Corten steel planter on legs?
The choice of a Corten steel planter on legs is both a visual and a practical decision. Visually, the legs create a "floating" effect, which gives larger planters a less massive appearance and makes the space look optically larger. Practically speaking, the legs ensure superior drainage; excess water flows away immediately, preventing root rot. Additionally, Corten steel is an extremely durable material that is protected against further corrosion by its natural rust layer. Moreover, a planter on legs is easier to move with a pallet truck if necessary and prevents pests from nesting directly under the warm bottom of the planter.How do you install Corten steel planters on legs?
When installing Corten steel planters on legs, a stable surface is the most important requirement. Although the legs distribute the pressure, they can sink into a soft surface such as lawn or loose soil. Therefore, preferably place them on a paved patio of tiles, concrete, or a sturdy wooden deck. Keep the following points in mind during installation:How do you fill a Corten steel planter on legs?
Filling a Corten steel planter on legs starts with good drainage. Because the planter is raised off the ground, drainage is already good, but a layer of 10-15 cm of hydro granules is still recommended. Cover the granules with a water-permeable root barrier to prevent the potting soil from washing through. Then fill the planter with high-quality garden soil. For extra insulation, you can line the inside of the walls with bubble wrap; this protects the roots from the heat conduction of the steel in the summer. Make sure you do not fill the planter to the rim, so that there is room left for the watering without it flowing directly over the edge.Maintaining a Corten steel planter on legs
The beauty of this product is that maintaining a Corten steel planter on legs requires virtually no work. The characteristic rust layer protects the steel itself and never needs to be painted or treated. Should dirt get on the planter, you can simply rinse it off with water or brush it away with a soft brush. Avoid using scouring pads or chemical cleaning agents, as these can disrupt the even oxidation layer. Check occasionally to ensure the drainage holes in the bottom haven't become clogged with roots, so that the planter on legs maintains optimal drainage and the plants remain healthy in all seasons.Buy Corten steel planter on legs

Frequently asked questions about the Corten steel planter on legs
Are the legs strong enough for the weight of the soil?
Absolutely. The legs of our Corten steel planters are designed and welded in such a way that they can effortlessly support the full weight of the planter, the hydro granules, the wet soil, and the plants. The construction is calculated for maximum load without bending.
How high are the legs of the planter usually?
Most Corten steel planters on legs have a leg height of approximately 9 centimeters. This is the ideal height to create a floating effect, provide sufficient space for drainage and ventilation, and potentially allow a pallet truck to get underneath.
Can I place the planter on wooden decking?
Yes, that is perfectly fine. Precisely because the planter stands on legs, the decking underneath the planter can ventilate and dry well. This prevents wood rot and damp spots that you often see with planters with a flat bottom. Do, however, watch out for possible rust stains during the first few months of the oxidation process.
Is the planter delivered in the rust color?
Most Corten steel planters are delivered in their unrusted (metal-gray) state. After a few weeks to months outdoors, the planter will develop its characteristic rust color under the influence of rain and humidity. This natural process ensures a unique and vibrant appearance for every individual planter.
