Do you install in Brighton 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 Brighton and the surrounding east sussex area. You are not handed off to a third-party installer.

How long does a bespoke planter order for Brighton 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 Brighton?

Regency conservation areas are strict on street-facing metalwork; we supply elevations and colour references for consent packs. On top of that, exposure here is full coastal exposure with salt spray reaching well inland on a south-westerly, so we size the gauge and choose the coating to match rather than applying one standard build to every job.

Bespoke metal planters in Brighton

Working across Brighton means designing around Regency terraces, seafront apartments and independent hospitality terraces. 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.

Bespoke metal planters of the kind we fabricate and install in Brighton — Perimeter planter run wrapping the brick pavilion building with mixed planting and strong geometric lines.

Because we manufacture in our own UK workshop and install with our own fitters, Brighton 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 seafront and the Regency squares ourselves.

Local conditions

Built for Brighton

What we're fitting to

Brighton work usually means Regency terraces, seafront apartments and independent hospitality terraces. 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 full coastal exposure with salt spray reaching well inland on a south-westerly. 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 Brighton clients are typically hospitality operators, homeowners and designers. 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

The Lanes and Kemptown streets are tight and permit-controlled, so we deliver early in a small vehicle and carry to position. 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

Regency conservation areas are strict on street-facing metalwork; we supply elevations and colour references for consent packs. 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.
