Troubleshooting
Panels do not connect securely
Ensure you are using the correct connectors and that the panels are aligned properly according to the assembly instructions. Check for any debris obstructing the connection points.
Water pooling in the bed
Confirm the bed is placed on level ground. The open bottom design relies on gravity for drainage; uneven placement can impede water flow. Ensure the soil is not compacted, which can also hinder drainage.
Trellis feels unstable
Ensure the trellis is firmly attached to the main bed structure as per the instructions. For very heavy climbing plants or high winds, consider adding additional stakes for support or gently guiding the plant growth.
Rust spots appearing on the metal
The galvanised coating is designed to prevent significant rust. Minor spots may appear over time. These typically do not compromise structural integrity. For aesthetic concerns, a metal-safe sealant can be applied to affected areas.
