Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our handmade balcony furniture, installation, maintenance, and more.

Is the tabletop and hanging planter weather-proof?

Yes. Our tabletops are designed for outdoor use. Finished (painted) versions receive two exterior-grade protective coats to help resist sun, rain, and moisture. We do recommend taking it inside during heavier weather events to prolong its lifespan.

How long does installation take for the tabletop?

Installation takes less than 5 minutes because it comes fully assembled in the box. Simply use a Phillips Head screwdriver to tighten the screws when the back piece is held against the railing and fold the cap piece over the assembly.

How long does installation take for the hanging planters?

Installation takes about 5-10 minutes. The provided rings only require a small screwdriver to install. There are pre-drilled holes for multiple variations of how you would like the rings to be spaced out. Similar to the bar top, once the rings are installed, you only need a Phillips Head screwdriver to fit the entire planter over your railing. Detailed directions are included with the purchase.

What are the specifications of the tabletop?

The tabletop features high quality pine boards, high strength steel chains, and powder-coated hinges. It is approximately 45.5" in length, 7" tall, and 14" deep.

What are the specifications of the hanging planters?

The hanging planter features a high-quality pine board construction with 4" powder-coated steel planter rings. Tiny holes are drilled in various locations on the front face allowing you to easily change the locations of the planter rings.

Can I put items on the top of the cap piece?

DO NOT put items on top of the top cap piece as items could be knocked off and fall over. It is NOT designed for this purpose.

What's the difference between Painted and Unpainted options?

Painted: Sealed with two coats of high-quality Sherwin-Willams Emerald Rain Refresh latex paint. Unpainted / Sanded: Smooth, raw wood prepared for staining, sealing, or painting. After painting or designing, we recommend sealing it if used outdoors.

Will this work on apartment or rental balconies?

Absolutely! Our tabletops are designed to be non-permanent and renter friendly. They do not require drilling into walls or railings when installed as intended. The only required tool is a screwdriver to set up and take down.

What type of railing does this work with?

Our tabletops are compatible with most standard balcony railings, including metal and wood railings. The bar top can fit over railings 1” - 3” in width. Please note that these are not designed to fit 2x4 wood planks. Circular railings, although uncommon, do work with the bar top if it is flush with the main posts. If you're unsure about your specific railing size or style, feel free to reach out before ordering.

How much weight can the tabletop hold?

It can withstand up to 30 lbs. with no problems. When properly installed, the bar top can easily support everyday items like drinks, small planters, food trays, and personal items. It is not intended to be used as seating or to support body weight.

Does it come fully assembled?

Yes. The tabletop arrives fully assembled. Installation is quick and straightforward with only one (Phillips Head) screwdriver needed.

Can I leave it outside year-round?

Painted versions are built for year-round outdoor use. However, like all outdoor furniture, lifespan can be extended by avoiding prolonged standing water and extreme weather exposure. In harsh climates, covering or seasonal removal is recommended.

How do I clean and maintain it?

Cleaning is simple — wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed. Avoid harsh chemicals or pressure washing. Periodic touch-ups may be needed over time depending on sun exposure.

Is each piece the same?

No. Each tabletop is handmade, so natural wood grain, color variations, and small imperfections are normal and part of the product's character.

Do you offer custom sizes or finishes?

Custom requests may be available depending on workload and materials. Contact us before ordering to discuss options.

How long until I receive my order after purchasing?

Please allow up to 1-2 weeks for it to be shipped as everything is 100% handmade.
