The dimensions are 260 cm in length, 40 cm in width, and 36 cm in height.

Is assembly difficult?

The raised bed is designed for easy assembly by DIY enthusiasts. Instructions and necessary hardware are typically included.

Can this raised bed be used on a balcony?

What is the color of this raised bed?

This specific model comes in a sleek anthracite finish.

How should I care for the raised bed?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Periodically check connections for security. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Is the steel treated to prevent rust?

Yes, the steel is powder-coated, which provides a protective layer against rust and the elements.

Troubleshooting

Warping or bending of panels

Ensure all interior brackets are securely fastened and that the ground beneath is level and stable. Distribute soil evenly within the bed.

Rust spots appearing on the surface

This is unlikely with powder coating, but if small spots appear, they can often be gently cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap. Touch-up paint may be used for minor scratches if necessary.

Difficulty during assembly

Review the assembly manual carefully. Ensure all parts are correctly aligned before tightening screws. Having a second person assist can make assembly easier.

Uneven water drainage

Ensure the location chosen allows for natural drainage away from the bed. Consider adding a layer of gravel at the bottom for enhanced drainage if planting directly on a solid surface.
