What app can recommend garden bed frame size and components?

Shopify Apps

Topic summary

A user is seeking a Shopify app that allows customers to input garden bed dimensions (width, length, height) and receive automated recommendations for frames and components.

Current consensus: No dedicated app exists for this exact use case. The discussion suggests several alternatives:

  • Custom development via Shopify Experts marketplace for a tailored solution
  • Product customizer apps like “Product Options & Customizer,” “Build-a-Box,” or “Advanced Product Options by HulkApps” that support custom dimension inputs
  • Kickflip product configurator, which enables measurement-based inputs with dynamic pricing and component suggestions
  • Custom coding approach using JavaScript and Liquid for a bespoke calculator

The thread remains open with no definitive solution chosen. Multiple participants recommend adapting existing product customization tools rather than finding a purpose-built garden bed calculator.

Looking for an app that would allow you to fill in your garden bed size – width / length / height, and then it suggests what frame and/or components you need

Cheers,

I don’t think such an application is available in Shopify Apps. You are probably looking for a Custom build app specifically tailored to your requirements.

You can find app developers at https://experts.shopify.com/

Hey, cool idea!

It sounds like you’re trying to make garden bed planning a lot easier for folks—especially those into landscaping or DIY stuff. I don’t think there’s a Shopify app that exactly does what you’re describing, but you’ve got some options.

You could look into something like “Product Options & Customizer” or “Build-a-Box.” They let people enter custom sizes (like width, length, and height), and then you can set it up to suggest certain frames or components based on that. Kind of like a choose-your-own garden bed setup.

There’s also “Advanced Product Options by HulkApps”—those are solid if you want to build out more of a step-by-step guide. Super useful for landscaping products where sizes really matter.

If you’re comfortable messing with some code or have a developer, you could even build a simple calculator using JavaScript and Liquid to make the experience feel custom.

Anyway, hope that gives you some ideas! Sounds like a fun project for gardeners and landscapers.

Hi @wq_IntDev ,

Thanks for your message!

For what you’re looking to achieve — allowing customers to input custom dimensions (width, length, height) for a garden bed and then receiving component suggestions with dynamic pricing — I’d recommend taking a look at the Kickflip product configurator.

Kickflip allows you to set up customizable fields where customers can enter their own measurements. Based on those inputs, you can configure it to suggest the appropriate frame or components and automatically update the price in real time. It’s a flexible and intuitive solution that works really well for made-to-measure or modular products.

If you need help getting started or have specific setup questions, feel free to reach out — happy to assist!

Cheers,
