1. How to build a raised bed trellis for your garden?
No matter the type of climbing plants you’ll grow, this free plan project can be adapted to any environment. You’ll be able to customize the dimensions of your trellis and customize other aspects too (choosing the type of tubes -tinktube’s or EMT conduit-, the connectors and more)! For outdoor use, just remember to protect your trellis and not use galvanized pipes to avoid rust.
2. DIY Raised Bed Trellis in Teepee
Teepee garden trellises are versatile structures that can support various plants like beans, cucumbers, squash, tomatoes, peas, and ornamental flowering vines.
To make a durable teepee trellis, gather steel tubes, cut them about 6 to 8 feet tall and fix then at the top. It’s as simple as it gets!
3. Metal arch trellis
Nicole Burke, the founder of Rooted Garden and Gardenary, tried various bamboo and wooden trellises in her garden designs. Unfortunately, she wasn’t happy with their tendency to collapse under the weight of the vines, which led to frequent replacement.
She eventually switched to using metal trellises… and never looked back! You can bend metal tubes yourself to replicate this type of project. Check our article on how to bend EMT conduit or steel tubes!
4. Heavy-duty trellis
There are many choices of trellis materials out there. But when it comes to building a heavy-duty trellis, wood and metal are the most popular options. When built and protected properly, raised bed trellis made of wood or metal can withstand all kinds of weather – and for way longer than plastic trellis!

By constructing a taller structure, you can effectively maximize your crop yield and conserve ground space. If you’re seeking inspiration for a durable and secure DIY trellis you’ll be able to install on your raised garden bed, look no further. The key to success lies in firmly anchoring the steel tubes into the ground as the initial step.
Duplicating this type of structure is easy. You’ll need only a few tubes and the right connectors.
Once you’ve built your project, the subsequent step involves reinforcing the foundation of the trellis by incorporating triangular or square-shaped steel tubes into each leg, depending on the height of the structure!
11. High raised bed trellis
A DIYer from tinktube’s community took on this project. He designed and created a trellis that was specifically tailored to accommodate high plants. He used sturdy materials, such as pipes and connectors, and anchored it securely into the ground. He made sure that the trellis would be high enough to allow for the growth of taller plants while still being stable and strong enough to withstand outdoor weather conditions.
12. Ideas for a raised bed trellis with: EMT conduit
This example is a raised garden bed with a trellis that was built using EMT conduit and conduit connectors. The trellis was designed to support climbing vegetables such as cucumbers, beans, and tomatoes, allowing them to grow vertically and freeing up space in the garden bed.
For the raised garden bed itself, we recommend cedar planks, which are naturally resistant to rot and insect damage.

The material is easy to work with and good quality. It took me less than 2 days to finish my project.”
