Extension Kit for Slot Down Compost Bin
The Slot Down Compost Bins are perfect for the larger garden where a large bin is required, or where more bins are needed to maximise the amount of compost made.
This extension kit allows you to add an additional bin onto your existing Slow Down Compost Bin.
Please note this is the Extension Kit Only and will therefore require you to either already have the Slot Down Compost Bin, or to purchase it at the same time.
Each extension kit contains two posts and 3 sides to slot into the side of the original 4 sided compost bin.
The rough sawn nature of the timber allows the composter to blend perfectly into any garden.
To access your mature compost, simply remove the individual sideboards.
You can use 1 or 2 extensions to make a double (as shown in the drawing) or even triple compost bin.
The compost bin and its extensions have been pressure treated and has a 15 year guarantee.
If you require a smaller compost bin, the beehive compost bin is also available.
Please note however we are unable to offer delivery of this item to addresses in the Scottish Highlands and Islands, Northern Ireland, Chanel Isles, Isle of Man, Scilly Isles and Isle of Wight and other areas outside UK mainland.
