Why follow the masses with the usual arches available at almost every garden centre?
These elegant and unique metal garden arches are designed and fabricated by us. We are confident you won’t find anything like them anywhere!
The tusks can be installed in multiples to form long arbours, as a pair to create a single arch or randomly as sculpture pieces to flank a walkthrough.

The tusk metal garden arch on a summer morning sunrise.
Imagine you new steel arch adorned with flowering Wisteria and climbing Roses.
Tusks installed randomly for a more abstract feature. This works especially well on longer curved paths.
Typically, arches exist to mark the way into a new area of the garden or as a feature in themselves. They should be eye-catching and generate intrigue to encourage further exploration into what’s beyond. We feel the tusk metal garden arches do just that. All you need to do is ensure the destination is as impressive as your new arch would imply!
The tusk garden arch has an organic form so while visually dramatic they bed beautifully within the landscape, in fact, they almost appear to be growing from it.
Each tusk is separate and can be spaced any distance from the one opposing, thereby increasing or decreasing the width of the arch.
Or take it a step further and create a highly contemporary metal walkway or pagoda with any number of tusks. The optional galvanised connecting rods allow you to create a continuous archway. Adorn them with climbing plants such as Wisteria for a truly magical feature.
The tusk garden arches are made from solid mild steel they can be left to weather naturally as in the photos, or we can galvanise them for a contemporary silver finish.
If opting for the galvanised tusk walkway, we would supply them with mild steel tubes which will weather to brown and contrast with a silver galvanised finish (unless you advise us otherwise).
Each tusk garden arch comes with a 6mm thick steel baseplate predrilled with 4 holes. These are bolted onto concrete or similar hard surfaces. If you’re starting from scratch, we recommend a concrete base measuring 0.5m cube. Or we can supply a fixing kit for securing directly into the wet concrete (like a fence post).
Erecting multiple tusks to create an arbour walkway is simple. Secure the two end tusks and ensure they are level, then use these to run a string line to position those inside. Once installed, thread the rails through the tusks and secure them using their built-in pipe clamps.
Whatever the setting, the tusk garden archway is a bold choice, it will uplift any scheme and display a desire to be different and break away from the boring!

Our Tusk Garden Arches make a bold statement anywhere. Striking, durable, and a standout addition to any garden or outdoor space.
Being made entirely of steel, the lifespan of our arch is at least 25 years.
Providing you can dig a hole and mix concrete, installation should be a breeze. There are two methods, either lay a concrete foundation around 0.5m sq and bolt the base plates to it once set. Or you can use the optional leg extensions which are put into the wet concrete mix and the arch base plates simply bolt to them once dry. This saves drilling concrete.
Yes, while the weathered steel is the default we can offer a galvanised finish too, this is a permanent silver/grey zinc coating.
Due to the simple bold structure we would recommend climbers with a strong woody framework which can be tied in as it grows, these include Rambling Roses, Tracleosperumum Jasminioides for amazing scent or our first choice or Wisteria for its fragrant pendulous blooms.
Delivery methods depend partly on location, the individual “arch tusks” will either be shipped on a triple width pallet or delivered via van or trailer using our own drivers. They can be lifted by hand with relative ease, with each one weighing around 23kg.
