FAQs
How long does assembly take?
Assembly is quick and easy, typically taking around 5 minutes to join the planter and trellis with the provided screws using a drill.
Does the planter come with drainage holes?
The product description does not explicitly mention drainage holes, but it does include a liner. It is advisable to check for drainage holes or consider adding them if your plants require them, especially if the planter will be placed on a surface without natural drainage.
Can I customize the size?
While standard sizes are listed, the description suggests contacting them if none of the available sizing options work, indicating a possibility for custom orders.
What is the weight of the unit?
The Norfolk Planter and Trellis (Pack of 2) weighs approximately 108 kg.
Is the wood treated to withstand the weather?
Yes, the planter and trellis are made from pressure-treated, dry-graded timber, which is designed for outdoor durability and resistance to rot and decay.
Can I purchase just the planter or just the trellis?
The product is sold as a combined pack of two. Separate purchase of individual components is not mentioned in the description.
What is the warranty period?
The product information provided does not specify a warranty period.
Troubleshooting
Planter and trellis do not align correctly during assembly.
Ensure the planter is placed squarely against the trellis, aligning the pre-drilled holes. If slight adjustments are needed, a gentle push or pull should suffice. Double-check that no debris is obstructing the holes.
Screws are difficult to insert.
Use a power drill with the appropriate screwdriver bit for easier insertion. If using a hand drill, ensure you are applying firm, steady pressure. Check that the pre-drilled holes are clear of any obstructions.
Wood appears slightly weathered upon arrival.
This is normal for pressure-treated timber, especially if exposed to varying weather during transit. The wood is treated to withstand outdoor conditions, and its appearance will stabilize over time.
Item feels unstable after assembly.
Ensure all 10 screws are fully tightened. Verify that the planter is sitting on a level surface. For added stability, consider inquiring about optional wooden feet or adjustable feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Upon delivery, the planter and trellis will arrive as separate, largely pre-assembled units. The final step involves fixing the planter to the trellis using the provided 10 screws. This process typically takes about 5 minutes and requires a power or hand drill. Pre-drilled holes make alignment straightforward. No other tools are necessary.
Compatibility:
This planter and trellis unit is designed for outdoor use. It is compatible with most standard potting soils and plants that thrive in a planter of its size. Optional add-ons like castors or feet can be fitted if desired, and these can be inquired about separately.
Care:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of the pressure-treated wood, it is recommended to clean the planter and trellis periodically with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. While the wood is treated for outdoor durability, regular inspection for any signs of wear will help prolong its lifespan. Consider applying a wood treatment or stain every few years to further protect it, especially if exposed to harsh weather conditions.
