Window Box Holders Built to Last
It's essential to determine the exact type of holders and hardware required for your window boxes. When choosing hardware, ensure it's made from sturdy materials that can securely hold your window boxes in place and keep them steady, even on the windiest days. Fortunately, we provide everything you need for your window box installation.
Hardware Considerations
We offer a range of sturdy brackets that can support both standard and extra-large window boxes. While the holder needs to be sturdy, it can also add a decorative effect to the entire display. When choosing your window box holders, you need to consider a few factors.
What size flower box are you using?
Standard hardware and holders can be used with planters of a standard size. To support the increased size and weight, you will most likely require heavy-duty hardware if your box is unusually large.
What are you planting?
The types of plants you choose for a window box or railing planter could impact the weight of the window box, so we have designed our products to anticipate the weight of different kinds of plants and soil. What matters more is ensuring you have the necessary hardware based on your desired configuration, whether for the wall or a railing. The plants may be heavier, meaning the inclusive weight of the box, plants, and soil would increase. Therefore, you would need the right type of window box hardware to accommodate everything comfortably.
Where are you placing the flower boxes?
The window box holders would also be affected by their positioning. What will the brackets be attached to, and where will the window boxes be installed? Balconies and rails would require different brackets than the brackets for a deck.
For concrete, bricks, wood, or stucco, for instance, you would require different mounting bolts for each one. It is important to have the right hardware to effectively install your window boxes.
Lag bolts are probably your best bet, but choose which bolts to use based on the material they will be attaching to. You may also need clamps to tighten things up or cable ties for more unique railing shapes to hold things together. We can supply everything you need.
Personal style
When choosing your window box holders, personal preference obviously also plays a part because the simplicity of the Bradbury Hanging Basket Bracket may appeal to you, whereas the Beverly Hanging Basket Bracket could be more appealing to someone who prefers an ornate design. You may even opt for adjustable brackets, but your final choice ultimately comes down to what is most suitable.
What is the architectural style of the building?
You may not think it’s important at first, but when you consider the style of the surrounding buildings, this could affect the holders and window box hardware that you choose. Balcony brackets look stunning on a modern-design building, but scroll window box holders would look better on an older-style residence.
