Commercial Interior Planter Schedule
Will the grow pot fit through the planter opening?
A planter’s exterior size sets its footprint in the room. It does not establish whether the nursery pot can pass through the rim, sit inside a liner, or be removed for service. Use this free schedule to coordinate those decisions before ordering.

From schedule to proposal
- Open the Excel schedule and use Blank Schedule for your project; keep the manufacturer-sourced example as a reference, not an approved selection.
- Record exterior footprint, clear opening, usable depth and the actual grow-pot profile in the same units. Use the spacing calculator to explore quantities; verify routes and mature spread separately.
- Leave unconfirmed dimensions blank, describe fit questions in the confirmation field and hold procurement until the supplier and installer resolve them.
- Carry agreed quantities, installation responsibilities and recurring care into Proposal Builder; it does not validate fit.

Complete the Interior Planting Site Survey before specifying individual locations. Copy its stable Location ID into Planter tag; keep unresolved light and service decisions visible.
Three dimensions, three different decisions
- Exterior footprint and height
- Overall length, width and height determine the space occupied. Check circulation, adjacent seating and the delivery route; do not use exterior height as usable depth.
- Clear opening
- The unobstructed entry at the rim. Measure the grow pot’s widest point, including any lip or handles, and check its shape against the opening and the full insertion path.
- Usable interior depth
- The available vertical space from the intended seating/support plane to the limiting rim or obstruction, after accounting for the liner and water-containment assembly. Obtain this from the supplier.
Taper, liners, ribs, reservoirs and other internal obstructions can reduce usable space below the opening. Ask for internal profiles and tolerances for the final assembly. Nominal pot diameter alone is not a fit approval.
Lobby example: catch a discrepancy before ordering
Illustrative design and installation coordination, not a built project or procurement approval. The manufacturer values below all refer to the same Montroy Cube variant.
| Field | Scheduled value | Evidence / action |
|---|---|---|
| Tag / location / quantity | P-01 / Lobby — sheltered seating edge / 2 | Illustrative project inputs |
| Manufacturer / model / item | Jay Scotts / Montroy Cube / 69141.20 | Manufacturer-published |
| Finish | Matte white — illustrative selection; confirm availability | Illustrative; confirm availability |
| Exterior L × W × H | 20 × 20 × 20 in | Manufacturer-published |
| Clear opening L × W | 17.2 × 17.2 in | Manufacturer-published; confirm tolerances |
| Usable interior depth | Confirm with manufacturer | Not published in the product dimension table; numeric cell left blank |
| Grow pot L × W × H | 18 × 18 × 16 in | Round; maximum rim width shown — illustrative only, installer to measure |
| Liner / water containment | Installer to propose removable watertight liner and water-management method; manufacturer to confirm compatibility; owner to approve | Proposed responsibility; obtain approval |
| Installation / discrepancy | 18 in grow-pot rim exceeds 17.2 in opening. Hold order; installer to propose a smaller measured pot or a larger planter; obtain supplier confirmation of the full insertion path, depth and liner before release. | Hold order |
| Maintenance access | Keep approach from service route clear; installer to demonstrate removal, watering and inspection without moving adjacent seating. Owner to approve access allowance. | Confirm with installer and owner |
| Confirmation status | Hold — fit discrepancy; not approved for procurement | Resolve before procurement |
An illustrative 18 in grow-pot rim is wider than the published 17.2 in opening. The architect holds the selection; the installer measures the actual pot and proposes a smaller pot or a larger planter. The supplier confirms the opening, internal profile, usable depth, liner and tolerances in writing. Update the schedule and obtain approval before releasing the order—even if a revised nominal pot size appears smaller.

What to confirm before procurement
- Architect/specifier: confirm location, quantity, finish, exterior footprint and circulation requirements.
- Manufacturer: confirm exact item, opening tolerances, interior profile, usable depth, obstructions and compatibility with the proposed liner.
- Installer: measure grow-pot rim, body, handles and height; demonstrate insertion, seating and removal with the complete containment assembly.
- Installer and owner: agree water-containment responsibility, inspection access, service route and ongoing maintenance scope.
- Leave an unknown numeric dimension blank and describe it in the confirmation field. Zero is a measured value, not a substitute for unknown.
The blank tab is manufacturer-neutral, with separate numeric fields in inches, filters, frozen headers and 50 entry rows. The lobby tab shows the coordination hold; the field guide defines each dimension and records the sources and responsibilities.
Carry the confirmed scope into a proposal
Use the agreed quantities, container requirements, installation responsibilities and maintenance scope to prepare pricing and terms. Confirm fit separately; the Proposal Builder does not validate planter dimensions.
