Adorable! Love them, BUT! They don’t work for the rails that I have and I ended up tying them up with rope. (As shown in photo) Also! I ordered 2 baskets, got 6 hooks and 2 screws, should’ve been 4 hooks 4 screws. I made it work, and it looks really nice on the side of my apartment, but unfortunately the hook parts didn’t work for me! Even if they did work I didn’t have enough screws to keep it up! I’m only giving it 3 stars bc I know Home Depot’s Workers are working hard during these times, and I appreciate all the hard work they are doing fulfilling all these online pickup orders!

The planter was easy to mount and has held up well so far (we have had them installed for about two weeks). We have two on our balcony railings and they are nice additions to the space. FYI, these planters sit on top of the railing and do not hang over the edge.

    The planters are lovely, but came without any instructions for attaching to the railings. Neither I nor my contractor could figure out how to hang them from the railings. They are sitting on top of the bannisters, for now,, but would look SO much better if they could be hanging as it was intended.

    Hello, typically the deck rail planters come with instructions, however the deck rail planters typically sits on your deck and doesn't hang. For a basket/planter that hangs, we recommend HTR24-B, 24 in. Metal Deck Rail Planter, with Coco Liner English Style Horse Trough. GilbertandBennett-MAT

    I was looking for a rectangular planter with a cocoa liner with iron to go with the other planters I have. This is great and looks beautiful.

    Hi Nancy, the brackets can be adjusted from 3 to 6 inches, and anything smaller or larger than that will be difficult to install it on. GilbertandBennett-MAT

    The clips that came with the planter were inadequate and we had to shop on our own to separately find ties to put them up.

    Hello Maya, we apologize that the clips were not adequate enough to hold up your plants. Depending on the size and width of your plants, the ties may not always suffice. GilbertandBennett-MAT

      The coco insert lets water pour out, so soil does not stay moist. Planter itself is very pretty and easy to assemble. Bought 2 and then bought 2 more.

      The hole you need to use to screw the rail clamps on was welded partially shut by mistake. It was too much of a hassle to return the thing so I just set it on an outdoor sill. Annoying, though.
