Those who need to accommodate more bins will find the same wood front also as Holzmichl 2 boxes in pure 120- or 240-liter configuration or as larger sets in the category 2 boxes garbage bin boxes.
Wood front meets anthracite: material and color
The body consists of weatherproof steel in robust sheet thickness, hot-dip galvanized and then powder-coated. This construction provides weather and corrosion protection that keeps a box looking good outdoors for years.
A spruce wood inlay is set into the anthracite-colored frames, framed by a surrounding frame. This creates the warm wood look of the front, while the roof, edges, and sides maintain the clear anthracite line. The photos clearly show how calm this combination looks next to a wooden facade and how it stands out against a light plaster wall.
In addition to anthracite (RAL 7016), the Holzmichl is also available in pure white, white gray, tele gray, black, gray aluminum, and cream white. You can see which color tones are currently available directly on the product. The entire wood line can be found in the category garbage bin boxes made of wood.
Plant roof, lid, and everyday access
The plant roof plays the main role here: the upper tray can be planted, with lavender, low herbs, and cushion perennials growing on it in the pictures. This gives the box a green top instead of showing a bare lid. For those who prefer a simpler look, the same box can also be chosen with a flip lid, visible in the category garbage bin box with plant roof.
The convenience remains the same when throwing in waste: the lid opens gently via gas pressure dampers and closes softly via impact dampers. The bin lid inside opens synchronously as soon as you hook in the supplied chain, so you don’t have to touch the bin separately. Lid and door can be locked together with a central lock, protecting the bins from curious hands and wind.
Space requirements and ground: how to place the box securely
To ensure the Holzmichl stands as neatly as in the photos, it’s worth taking a quick look at the dimensions and ground.
The clear width per bin space is:
120-liter space: about 51.5 cm wide, 70 cm deep, 99 cm high
240-liter space: about 61.5 cm wide, 80 cm deep, 109 cm high
With the plant roof, the 240-liter box reaches a height of about 123.5 cm, without the plant roof about 118 cm. Allow enough swing space in front for lids and doors.
Suitable ground surfaces include paving, concrete, or a compacted area, like the gravel and chippings strips shown in the pictures all around. The adjustable feet compensate for ground unevenness of about 15 to 60 mm, so the box stands straight even on a slight slope. Screwing it down is not absolutely necessary, but the box can be additionally anchored if needed via pre-drilled holes in the base rails.
Conclusion: wood look with a green roof for two bins
The Holzmichl 2 boxes in anthracite combines a warm spruce wood front with a weatherproof steel body and a planted roof that blends into the garden. For households with a 120- and a 240-liter bin who value aesthetics, it is one of the most discreet solutions—a box that looks more like a flower bed than a garbage bin storage.
