Bespoke metal planters in Birmingham

Our workshop began in the West Midlands, so Birmingham is close to home. The city's canal-side and Jewellery Quarter conversions produce a steady stream of roof terrace and courtyard work, while Digbeth and Smithfield regeneration brings larger public realm and amenity deck packages.

Bespoke metal planters of the kind we fabricate and install in Birmingham — Ground-level courtyard bench planter with sweeping metal edges and a calm pedestrian route through the centre of the development.

Fabrication in mild steel, aluminium, Corten and stainless, hardwood seat tops, marine-grade fixings and a ten-year structural warranty — the same specification wherever the scheme is.

What we build in Birmingham

  • Canal-side and courtyard planter runs
  • Lightweight roof planters for conversions
  • Public realm bench planters and tree pits
  • Corten and PPC steel raised beds
Local conditions

Built for Birmingham

01

Canal-side terraces

Brindleyplace and the canal network give a lot of Birmingham schemes a water frontage, with the extra exposure and humidity that brings. We specify accordingly.

02

Jewellery Quarter conversions

Small industrial buildings converted to residential leave awkward, load-limited roof space. Lightweight aluminium shells with false bases are usually the answer.

03

Public realm scale

Digbeth and Smithfield schemes need planters that survive daily public contact — heavier sections, tamper-resistant fixings and repairable finishes.

Delivery & access

Midlands delivery is straightforward from our workshop, which keeps lead times tight and lets us attend site quickly if a detail needs resolving during install.

Planning & context

Birmingham's city centre design guidance sets expectations for greening and public realm quality. We provide the fabrication detail and finish specification your design team needs for conditions and approvals.

Questions

Birmingham FAQs

Are you based in the Midlands?
Our fabrication started in the West Midlands and we still manufacture in the UK, installing nationwide with our own teams.
Can you build tamper-resistant planters for public spaces?
Yes — heavier sections, concealed and security fixings, and finishes that can be spot-repaired rather than fully replaced.
What is the lead time to Birmingham?
Typically six to eight weeks from drawing approval, the same as anywhere else in the UK, with the date confirmed in writing at order.
