Chains

Hanging basket chains in three-point and four-point sets - replacements, upgrades and extensions that hang a basket level and keep it there.

We do not sell replacement chain on its own yet. Our wire and easy-fill baskets arrive with a three-point chain and hook already fitted, so most people never need a spare.

What are hanging basket chains?

Most baskets arrive with a three-point chain and hook already fitted, so a separate chain is only needed if you want extra drop or you are rehanging an older basket. Three-point chains hang more evenly than four-point on a round basket, and a longer chain lowers the display to eye level under a deep porch.

About our chains

Chains are the part of a hanging basket everyone forgets until one fails. This collection of hanging baskets chains covers replacement, upgrade and adjustment in one place. Three-point chain sets are the standard - they suit almost every round basket and come with the clips and top ring fitted, so swapping a tired chain for a new one takes two minutes. Four-point sets add stability for large and square-edged baskets. If your basket sits too high to water or too low over the path, extension chain for hanging baskets fixes the height problem link by link, and a chain with a swivel top ring stops the whole display twisting itself around in the wind. Everything here is proper welded-link steel in weatherproof black or galvanised finishes - not the brittle bent-wire sort that opens up under load. Chains for hanging baskets are cheap insurance: a planted basket puts its whole weight through them every minute of the season. Free UK delivery over £20 and a 100% money-back guarantee, as with everything we make.

FAQs

Chains – your questions

What are hanging basket chains?

How do I know which chain fits my basket?

Count the hanging points - most round baskets use three, spaced evenly around the rim. Our three-point sets fit any standard basket with rim loops or clip points; four-point sets suit larger square-edged designs.

What length chain should I use?

Standard sets hang the basket about 40cm below the hook, which suits most brackets. You want the basket top just below eye level - easy to see, easy to reach. Extension links sort anything unusual.

Can I replace the chain on an old basket?

Almost always, yes - if the basket rim is sound, a new chain set clips straight on and the whole display gets a second life. It is the cheapest basket refresh there is.
