Are more powder coat colors available, or just the ones shown on the color palette?2025-01-22T13:50:33-08:00

Yes, there are more colors available, at an additional charge we can match just about any powder coat if given a sample. You can also go to ralcolor.net and select from the RAL Color Chart

What is the oxidized zinc finish?2025-01-22T13:51:34-08:00

The oxidized zinc finish is a natural patina that alters the aluminum to create a zinc finish. This patina will continue to oxidize creating the familiar aged zinc characteristics.

What is powder coating and why do you use it?2025-01-22T13:51:53-08:00

Powder coating is the best method available for coating metal. It is a static electric process in which color, in a powder form is charged and transferred onto the prepared metal which is then heated and cured in a sealed precision oven that emits no VOCs into the atmosphere creating a sustainable durable finish.

What is a Natural Rust finish?2025-01-22T13:52:34-08:00

The natural rust finish begins at the time the product is created and will continue to oxidize/rust to its own unique finish depending on its environment. At first the rust appears powdery on the surface, but over time the rust will penetrate into the steel and evolve into a hard scale texture that is actually etched into the surface of the metal. During this transition some color transfer of the rust can take place. Therefore we do not recommend placing our non powder coated metal garden products on porous light colored surfaces, but it depends on the individuals sensitivity to this process. We would however, recommend the powder coat rust finish. It is made up of a 4 color matte finish, depicting a believable faux rust appearance.

How do your metal planter containers drain?2024-07-03T18:17:00-07:00

All of our containers come with drain holes and intend on being directly planted in. It is not necessary to use grow pots, however some of the designs have been fit with interior shelves to hold grow pots and saucers or to reduce the amount of soil needed to fill the containers if one chooses to do so. Containers can be provided without drain holes. Requests need to be made at time of order.

Drainage Fittings: All containers that drain onto the surface can create Tea-staining. This is a process in which the soil minerals stain the drainage water and the surface below. At an additional charge, Yard Art can customize special fittings hidden in the pots interior to plumb drainage off and away of these sensitive surfaces and eliminate standing water.

What kind of metal is used to make these products?2025-01-22T14:25:09-08:00

ALUMINUM: Our .090 Marine Grade Aluminum (3/32″ thick) is guaranteed to never rust, making it the perfect maintenance-free solution for your outdoor needs. Lightweight yet incredibly strong—aluminum is half the weight of steel and twice as durable—this material is ideal for projects where weight is a concern or where exterior planting takes place in unique environments. Whether for rooftops, decks, sensitive porous surfaces, or coastal locations, aluminum is the ideal choice. Available in a wide array of powder coat colors, aluminum ensures versatility and customization. If a finish other than natural rust is required, then aluminum is what would be used, as it will not rust, even in harsh conditions.

CORTEN : Corten steel, also known as weathering steel, is a type of steel alloy designed to form a stable, protective rust-like patina when exposed to outdoor elements. Once the protective patina has fully developed, corten steel requires little to no maintenance. This makes it a practical choice for outdoor projects requiring a rusted patina, and where upkeep needs to be minimal.
