FAQs
What is the purpose of the pea shingle or gravel layer?
The pea shingle or gravel layer at the base of the liner is essential for ensuring proper drainage. It prevents compost from falling into and blocking the drainage holes, maintaining good airflow and preventing waterlogging which can harm plant roots.
Is the raised bed frame included with the liner?
No, the raised garden bed frame is not included with the liner. This product is for the liner only.
How do I clean the liner?
You can clean the liner with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the reinforced PE material.
What are the dimensions of the liner?
The liner measures 117cm wide and 45cm high.
Can I use this liner with any raised bed?
While designed for specific large raised beds, it is suitable for other raised beds of similar dimensions (117cm wide x 45cm high). Always measure your raised bed to ensure a good fit.
How many spring clips are included?
The liner comes complete with a set of 8 spring clips.
What is the material of the liner?
The liner is made from reinforced PE, which is described as heavy-duty and rip-proof.
Troubleshooting
Liner does not fit securely
Ensure you are using all 8 spring clips and that they are evenly spaced around the top edge of the liner and frame. Check if the liner is correctly oriented within the raised bed.
Water pooling in the raised bed
Verify that the 6 drainage holes at the base are not blocked. Ensure the recommended one-inch layer of pea shingle or gravel is present at the bottom before adding compost. Check that the liner is not sagging in the center, preventing water from reaching the holes.
Liner appears to be stretching or sagging
Confirm the liner is adequately secured to the raised bed frame with the spring clips. Ensure the compost fill level does not exceed the height of the raised bed frame itself.
