Do you install in Lewisham 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 Lewisham 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 Lewisham 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 Lewisham?

Blackheath and Brockley conservation areas will comment on visible metalwork, so we specify a subdued colour and hide fixings entirely. On top of that, exposure here is moderate inland, notably higher on the ridge and on Creekside upper floors, so we size the gauge and choose the coating to match rather than applying one standard build to every job.

Bespoke metal planters in Lewisham

Every Lewisham scheme starts with the constraint rather than the catalogue. With Deptford warehouse conversions, hillside Victorian houses and new riverside blocks in play, we build to the millimetre: welded corners, hidden fixings, internal drainage and a finish chosen for the exposure the planter will actually face.

Bespoke metal planters of the kind we fabricate and install in Lewisham — Serpentine matte black planter run with mixed shrub and grass planting winding through a new-build courtyard.

Around Deptford Creek and the Blackheath ridge we handle the whole job — design development, fabrication, powder coating, delivery and installation by our own specialist teams. That matters most when a scheme is tight on programme, because the manufacturing and the fitting are scheduled by the same people.

Local conditions

Built for Lewisham

Local building types

Across Lewisham the work sits on Deptford warehouse conversions, hillside Victorian houses and new riverside blocks, and each of those wants a slightly different base detail — pedestals, continuous feet or a levelled kerb, depending on what the deck can take.

Exposure and loading

Conditions here are moderate inland, notably higher on the ridge and on Creekside upper floors. 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 Lewisham clients are typically homeowners, developers and landscape 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

Creekside conversions have goods lifts; the Victorian stock does not, so we confirm the route before we cut metal and build in liftable sections. 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

Blackheath and Brockley conservation areas will comment on visible metalwork, so we specify a subdued colour and hide fixings entirely. 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.
