Handcrafted beauty and durability
Why TRM Services Garden Boxes?
Our raised garden planter boxes are handcrafted from locally sourced rough-sawn tamarack and galvanized steel panels and fasteners. Tamarack is a strong and naturally rot resistant wood, like cedar but stronger, that doesn't require treatment in outdoor applications. It's often used for boardwalks on hiking and ATV trails.
Since the wood is rough-sawn, the boxes have a beautiful rustic look and feel. The wood is green and is not sealed or stained. The wood will darken to a more golden color and eventually turn grey as the wood weathers. You can seal or stain it if you wish to preserve or change the color, but it's not necessary for longevity.
Contruction
-
Galvanized fasteners for durability.
-
Full dimensional 2x4 and 1x lumber for extra strength and a solid feel.
-
Mitered corners for a refined aesthetic.
-
Boxes that are 6' long or longer have a vertical mid brace to help support the panel and the soil behind it.
-
Boxes that are 8' long have cross braces that tie the long sides together as added assurance to prevent the box from bulging once filled with soil. On 30" tall boxes, the top cross brace is placed low enough to be buried and unseen when the box is filled.
-
Bottoms are open to allow full drainage (bottoms are a custom option).
