The Ultimate Guide to Raised Garden Beds
Built To Last - 25-Year Guarantee
The Rhino Raised Garden Beds are the best way to maximise your available growing space. Like our Rhino greenhouses they look stunning, adding depth and even more style to your garden.
We build Rhino Raised Garden Beds in a range of convenient sizes, as well as single and double tier configurations. The double tier option is fantastic for people with reduced mobility, while the single tier configurations fit seamlessly within our Rhino greenhouses. Assembly is extremely easy, the aluminium construction means they’re light enough to reposition when you want, and we’ve hidden all the fixings on the inside of the raised beds to help maintain a flawless exterior.
And just like our Rhino greenhouses, we build them with the same extreme strength and reliability, so we give you a 25-year guarantee, to give you complete confidence in your gardening.
Why Add Raised Garden Beds To Your Garden?
Practically, they allow you to have full control over how your growing area looks - the aluminium construction makes them light enough to place exactly where you want to, so you can create pleasing layouts in a way you can’t with traditional ground-based beds. They’re easy to clean and incredibly low maintenance.
Our Rhino Raised Garden Beds don't just look good, they also provide improved drainage and aeration, easier access to plants, and can even increase yields. They can make it harder for pests to feed on your plants too, the sides act as a barrier, and the extra height means it’s more difficult for them to jump from plant to plant.
Gardening is one of life’s great pleasures, but it’s not always enjoyed by the back, knees and other joints! A raised garden bed can remove some of the pain that’s sometimes caused by bending over to the ground, and can make gardening available to people with mobility issues who would otherwise be unable to do it.
Aluminium Raised Bed FAQs
The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) confirms that aluminium is a safe metal to use in the garden. Sometimes certain acids / fertilisers can cause leaching, so we treat all our raised beds with a high quality powder coating to help eliminate the chance of this happening.
Aluminium is a great material for raised garden beds - it’s tough and long lasting, especially when compared to wood which will naturally break down after a few years. We guarantee our Rhino Raised Beds for 25 years which shows the confidence we have in them.
The majority of raised beds won't have a bottom. This allows your plant roots to grow directly into the ground to find nutrients.
Typically, raised beds are recommended to be anywhere from 7 inches to 12 inches (or 18cm x 30xm). Our raised beds sit just under 8 inches high, with the option to stack them up to create deeper raised beds should your planting needs require.
