Handle with Care
The hedge wall is not designed to hold the weight of individuals or objects leaning against it.

Filling the Planter Box

  • Water Bags
    Water bags work well as a heavy-weight solution for filling the planter. Simply place them at the bottom of the box and fill it 90% with water before placing the hedge wall.
    Our standard water bag volume is 100L, allows you to add maximum 200lb water.

  • Sandbags
    If water bags are not available, sandbags can be used alternatively with the same filling and placement process.
    Pay attention to add at least 150lb weight.

  • Bricks
    Bricks can also be used as a heavy weight solution for filling the planter. Fill the bottom of the planter with the bricks and add a layer of gravel before placing the hedge wall.
    Pay attention to add at least 150lb weight.

Fire Safety

  1. Risks Of Fire
    Keep hedge walls away from flames, direct heat sources, or embers.

  2. Flame Retardant
    While boxwood hedge walls are flame-retardant and noncombustible, it is best to place them far from open flames and heat sources. Keep in mind the potential fire hazards and risks associated with improper usage.

  3. Chemical Safety
    Avoid using chemicals near the hedge wall that can cause ignition.

Anchoring Guidelines

  • Hedge Wall Height Over 79″
    The hedge wall needs to be securely anchored into the ground to ensure stability. Use either ground stakes or, alternatively, concrete blocks for anchoring.

  • Hedge Wall Height Over 96″
    For this height, it is necessary to use ground stakes and bars, placed through the middle of the planter. This will provide additional stability.

  • Additional Anchoring Systems
    Additional anchoring systems can be used for added stability in outdoor settings.

Ground Considerations

  1. Avoid Soft Surfaces
    Avoid soft soil, grass, or uneven ground as it is non-conducive to optimal stability.

  2. Even Ground
    It’s essential to place the hedge wall on an even surface to ensure the weight is distributed equally for maximum stability.

Corrosion and Oxidation may occur

  • Our boxwood hedge walls’ base and frame are designed from grade stainless steel materials that are resistant to corrosion and oxidation. This ensures the longevity and durability of the product under normal usage conditions. But there is nothing could be 100% sure.
  • Corrosion and oxidation can occur in stainless steel under strong acidic or alkaline environments. This natural process of aging and oxidation is not a quality issue and is something we test for, but raising awareness of the issue is important.
  • If your boxwood hedge wall is often eroded by sea wind and sea water, it may rust and oxidize, which will greatly reduce its service life.
