Bespoke metal planters in Bexley
Working across Bexley means designing around suburban houses, riverside industrial plots at Erith and retail park landscaping. There is rarely a standard size that works, so we measure, draw and fabricate each run to suit the opening it has to fill, with false bases that keep soil weight down and drainage that never stains the surface below.

Because we manufacture in our own UK workshop and install with our own fitters, Bexley clients deal with one company throughout. There is no subcontracted fit and no argument over who owns a problem: we draw it, weld it, coat it, deliver it and install it around the Erith Thames frontage and Bexleyheath town centre ourselves.

Built for Bexley
What we're fitting to
Bexley work usually means suburban houses, riverside industrial plots at Erith and retail park landscaping. We take our own dimensions on site, because a set-out that is 20mm off on paper becomes a visible gap once the planters are in position.
Exposure and loading
Conditions here are estuarial along the river at Erith, sheltered in the southern suburbs. That drives gauge, restraint and fixing choice: taller runs get internal struts, exposed elevations get a heavier shell, and anything near salt air gets marine-grade alloy with a coastal-specification coating.
Who we work with
Our Bexley clients are typically homeowners, retail landlords and industrial occupiers. We work from architects' and landscape designers' drawings, issue shop drawings for sign-off, and hold samples so a colour is approved before anything is coated.
Delivery & access
Kerbside delivery with driveway access is standard, keeping installation to a single day for most residential schemes. We agree the access route before manufacture begins, so panel sizes, joint positions and lifting method are decided on paper rather than discovered on installation day.
Planning & context
Riverside plots benefit from marine-grade specification; suburban schemes are led by finish and planting depth instead. Where consent or a landscape condition is involved, we supply elevations, RAL references and planting-depth information so the scheme can be evidenced and approved without delay.


Bexley FAQs
- Do you install in Bexley or just supply?
- We do both. Bespoke Metal Planters manufactures every unit in our own UK workshop and installs with our own specialist fitting teams, including throughout Bexley and the surrounding south east london area. You are not handed off to a third-party installer.
- How long does a bespoke planter order for Bexley take?
- Typically four to eight weeks from approved drawings, depending on size, finish and how many units are in the run. We confirm a date once the shop drawings and the colour are signed off, and we install to your programme rather than dropping units and leaving.
- What specification do you recommend for Bexley?
- Riverside plots benefit from marine-grade specification; suburban schemes are led by finish and planting depth instead. On top of that, exposure here is estuarial along the river at Erith, sheltered in the southern suburbs, so we size the gauge and choose the coating to match rather than applying one standard build to every job.
