Planters & Edging Systems

> Designed, Supplied & Installed throughout the UK.

Planters & Raised Beds

Supplied in manageable sections for easy piece together, on-site assembly or fully fabricated. Our folded planter design creates a smooth radii top and bottom of the planter and our strong L-Piece bracing system also allows for internal, out of sight fixing points. Any design, any shape, available in stainless steel, galvanised steel, Corten, or powdercoated to suit. As a bespoke design manufacturing company we can tailor our planters to your specification. Drainage, raised platforms, anything that is required can be easily built into our planter system.

Edging Systems

Our versatile edging system has been designed to fit all purposes, solid straight sections, radius corners or our unique flexible edging which allows you to create any shape you require. With our special in house tooling we can use thin lightweight materials to give you the look of a heavy gauge edging making it much more cost effective. Available in stainless steel, galvanised steel, Corten or powdercoated to suit.

Project Description

West Hendon – Area Planters

Working alongside Kingston Landscapes and Allen Pyke Associates, the Landscape Architect, Urban Street Designs manufactured 47 planters for Barrett London’s regeneration scheme in West Hendon, Hendon Waterside. These planters were large area planters of various sizes, working from Architectural plans we produced manufacturing drawings to show how they would be divided up into manageable sections for transport and assembly. Once section sizes have been approved all panels were laser cut and bent out of zintec (zinc coated steel) and put through our fabrication bay. Before powder-coating the planter panels were zinc rich primed, for further protection and longevity, and then coated in RAL 9006 to give an Aluminium white finish.

Project Description

Movable Timber Planters and Benches

Urban Street Designs Manufactured moveable Planters and Benches for this London Project. The outside space is used for public events and the remit from the client was to have planters and seating that could be re-arranged with a small electric forklift. This allowed them to configure the benches and planters to best suit the event that was being held. The furniture was manufactured in a mild steel, galvanised sub-frame and clad with oak as specified by the architect. As oak is quite an unstable timber we added hidden internal fixings to prevent the boards from warping. We then used stainless steel dome head bolts to show a decorative external fixing.

Project Description

Star and Garter - Powder Coated Planters

Working alongside Kingston Landscapes and PDP London Architects, Urban Street Designs manufactured 2 fully fabricated exterior planters for the Star and Garter, a Grade II listed building providing luxury apartments on the summit of Richmond Hill in London. The planters needed to fit in very specific locations and so the dimensions we worked to had to be exact. These were drawn up in our 3D CAD software to the millimetre and cut on our precision engineering laser and press brake in order to achieve this accuracy. We also put some neat square feet on the base to raise the planter off the ground slightly and supplied a drop in steel base with small holes in to create a drainage layer. The finish requested by the client was a powder-coated one to RAL 7024, a graphite grey. The planters were put through our own powder-coating line and oven, as we manufactured the planters out of Zintec (a zinc-coated steel) it gave the planters a lovely smooth base for the powder to adhere to.

Project Description

Redevelopment of the National Army Museum

Urban Street Designs was appointed to manufacture a stainless steel retaining tree protector measuring 1080mm dia. x 600mm high that would allow raised planting beds to be incorporated into the landscape, whilst importantly protecting the roots of an established tree on site.

When soil or any type of fill is placed over an existing root system, it causes a reduction in the oxygen supply to the tree roots and slows down the rate of gas exchange between the roots and the air in the soil pore space. By installing the retaining protector around the circumference of the trunk, it allowed levels to be raised without compromising the life longevity of a healthy tree.

Additional design features included an external joining plate to give additional strength and multiple connection points, 16mm x 150mm stainless steel studs around the perimeter of the base to aid the concrete footing to key to the Retaining Tree Protector. Perforated Plastic Pipe was installed by the landscape contractor under the root bed for additional drainage and oxygen source.

Rugby Radio Station Redevelopment

Urban Street Designs worked with Bradley Murphy Design and Whiting Landscapes to create 7 stunning Stainless Steel Planters for The Houlton Rugby Radio Station development.

They introduce a flexible planted element into the 'hard' multi-use courtyard and reflect the mix of traditional and contemporary design that has been developed for the Dollman Farm Visitor Centre. Each 2 metre long planter has four adjustable legs to allow for the sloping site and a drainage layer integrated into the base.

Project Description

Rossendale Borough Council – Planters and Sign

Urban Street Designs worked on this Public Funded Project with Rossendale Council and Landscape Architect Rachael Gildert of Proffitts – Investing in Communities.

The Planters had a dual role to play in the project, one of which was to create a barrier from the car park and the other was to bring in well needed planting space to add colour from plants and shrubs and enough depth to accept small trees. It was a true community project with children from the local school arriving on site to install the plants, giving them a connection to the play area.

As we worked so closely with the project at Waterfoot, we offered to produce a Laser Cut Corten and Stainless Steel Backed sign to tie the planters at the entrance of the Park to the sloped stone ramp that provides an exit at the opposite end.

The older residents had always referred to the space as “Mytholme” so it was only right to keep some tradition in the much needed New Play Area.
