Manufactured from rough-sawn timber, our range of sleepers are pressure-treated to provide abrasion, mildew and rot-resistance to ensure long lasting use. Sleepers are hugely versatile, perfect for creating a garden border or raised features. They can also be used to give more structure by creating retaining walls or edging, an ideal replacement for brick or stone. But they can also be used for more unique and exciting projects… Here’s a few ideas!
- Floating Seats
Create a contemporary look for your garden with a floating bench made from sleepers. With indoor/outdoor living increasing in popularity as we spend more time at home, sleepers are a unique way to create a simple and stylish seating area in your garden.
- Garden Swing
Can you imagine having a gorgeous giant swing in your garden to sit back and relax on with a nice glass of wine in the sun, while it gently rocks you in the breeze? Now THAT is garden goals! All you need to create this unique garden feature is some upright garden sleepers, some rope, and a curved seat (and your favourite wine!). You could also use sleepers to create a more child-friendly version so they don’t hog yours!
- Steps
Sleepers are a cost effective way to create beautiful steps in your garden. Having a garden set over more than one level can give so much more than a single plane, and will make your garden look larger. Different levels also help to zone areas, for example if you wanted one part of your garden for your plants and another for hosting.
- Vegetable Plot
It’s inevitable that we’ll be having to spend more time at home in 2021 than we’d like, so if you’re looking for a new hobby to take up why not start growing your own vegetables? A raised vegetable plot using sleepers will be much kinder to your knees and back and your plants will flourish will all of the extra space, while staying safe from slugs and snails.
