Planters
Raised Garden Beds (elongated and round)
Looking for the ultimate way to spruce up your garden, make it more manageable and beautiful too?
Our garden beds are made from a galvanised corrugated steel that is curved to the dimensions of your choice (elongated or round). The ends of the corrugated steel planter are joined by rivets, the top edge skillfully beaten over a 4mm wire ensuring a smooth and rounded edge. The inside is then painted with a rubberised paint to help protect against corrosion where there is a constant mingling of water, air and soil.
Our planters can be made either with an open bottom or they can have a base fitted.
Open bottom pro’s
- An open bottom is ideal if you are going to place your planter outside (not on a stoep, veranda etc.)
- An open bottomed planter allows for all the beneficial organisms, such as earthworms, to move up into the bed.
- An open bottomed planter allows for the roots to grow down and not be confined by the size of the planter.
We would typically only recommend a flat sheet metal base be added should you be placing your raised garden bed on a deck, veranda or stoep.

Wood Stackers
Our RainQueen Wood Stackers are a perfect solution to storing your fire wood while keeping the space visually appealing and well organised.
We have a range of standard dimensions, however, mostly our wood stackers are customised to suit each individual customer.
Our wood stackers are typically left unpainted / unlined and are open at the back (unless requested otherwise). A wood stacker is effectively an oval planter on its side with widths for either one log or two logs deep. There are also drainage holes drilled in the 'floor' of the wood stacker to stop water from pooling.
Sheds
Our RainQueen Sheds are wonderfully sturdy, strong and durable providing the perfect alternative to your standard 'Wendy house'.
Our sheds can be used as additional storage units or as an outdoor office space. We provide the most simple design leaving room for you to embellish and add gadgets where you see fit.
