Superior Durability and Longevity
Unlike other types of steel or metals, Corten steel develops a protective rust layer or patina that protects the metal and prevents further corrosion, meaning it will withstand harsh weather conditions and last significantly longer.
Minimal Maintenance
Once the protective patina layer has developed on your Corten steel product, it needs virtually no maintenance! Other types of steel may need treating or repainting, but Corten steel continues to look stunning without effort!
Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal
Corten steel’s rich, earthy patina creates a unique, natural look that evolves beautifully over time. Blending seamlessly with any garden or setting, this visually striking element can’t be matched by other steels.

How do we make a Trough Planter With Feet?
We laser cut the steel to ensure our design is precisely and consistently replicated for each item. Once the laser cutting is complete, we use specialist machinery to apply folds to the sheet steel. We complete the fabrication by hand using only the best, qualified fabricators who take immense pride in their work.
Each Arden Rectangular Trough Planter has a double folded return top lip feature. A lot of similar products on the market leave a steel edge, or a single fold. We have opted for a double fold for several reasons:
- It’s a much higher quality, premium finish (It just looks so much better!)
- It gives the trough unbelievable strength and rigidity, and
- It’s safer for hands when planting.
The corners and connecting sides are fully seam welded and we take time and effort to smooth welds which provides amazing corner and edge detail. Once we’re finished you won’t know where the welds are! As they are handmade by our professional fabricators each trough is ever so slightly unique adding to the charm of this product.
What is it made of?
Our Rustic Patina Steel is a Mild Steel. We make all our Rustic Patina Steel planters from 2mm thick steel as standard. Any custom sizes can be produced in up to 6mm steel depending on the intended use. If you select to upgrade to a Cor-ten Steel Planter you can be assured that you're buying a genuine certified Cor-Ten Steel Planter With Feet. Check out our blog post which compares Mild Steel and Cor-Ten Steel. Don’t just take our word for it check out what one of the UK's largest steel suppliers says about the advantages of Corten Steel and comparison vs. Mild Steel.
How will my order arrive?
We have a trusted network of nationwide pallet and parcel couriers. Larger sized planters or orders with larger quantities will arrive via a pallet courier, and smaller sized orders will arrive via one of our parcel courier partners. All deliveries are fully tracked. See Delivery Policy for more info.
Lead time is currently 3 to 4 week - please enquire if you require a shorter lead time.
How long will it take for the Trough Planter to weather?
Rustic Patina Troughs are available in a raw steel finish as standard. The finish will start to develop a beautifully unique orange and brown patina in a matter of weeks and will continue to develop over a period 6 to 12 months. Speed of weathering process depends on factors such as Weather, Climate, and Proximity the coast/ sea spray etc. You can order your planters pre-weathered if you're as impatient as we are!
Does the planter just sit on the ground?
No, all our Rustic Patina Steel planters come with fixed 15mm feet that are hidden underneath the planter. The feet keep the planter ever so slightly off the ground to give the effect that it is floating. Practically this also helps with drainage. We can make any of our planters bottomless so they can be installed directly on soil as a raised flower bed. We can also add adjustable heigh legs or castors to the bottom of your planter. Please contact our Sales Team (sales@weather-it.co.uk) or give us a call on 0121 824 5700 to discuss with one of our experts.
Can the Rectangular Trough Planters be used Indoors as well?
Yes! They are suitable for domestic, commercial, indoor and outdoor use. The planters come with drainage holes as standard, if using indoors you may want to request that these are removed.
How do i maintain it?
Unlike wooden or plastic alternatives no maintenance is required at all! All you need to do is fill, plant and enjoy!
Other things to note?
Due to the natural weathering process the “run off” from rainwater and watering may stain the surface the planter is placed upon. This a higher risk during the 1st 6 months of the weathering process.
We may have started the weathering process for you; planters can be delivered in various stages of the weathering process from new steel to full patina. Our Cor-Ten Steel Planter with Feet range develops a patina more quickly than our Rustic Patina Steel.
All dimensions are in millimetres and in Length x Width x Height format. For example, 2000 x 500 x 600 is 2000mm long, 500mm Wide and 600mm high. The height stated includes the 90mm feet.
Once production is started, we may not be able to accommodate requests or amends.
