You'll typically need a drill, level, measuring tape, and screws or anchors suitable for your wall type.
What is the weight capacity of the planter?
The weight capacity varies depending on the size of the planter, but it's designed to hold substantial weight. Ensure you use appropriate mounting hardware.
Can I use the planter indoors?
While designed for outdoor use, you can use it indoors if you ensure proper drainage to protect your floors.

Wipe down the frame with a damp cloth. The coco liner can be replaced when needed.

Water your plants regularly, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. The frequency depends on the plant type, weather, and sun exposure.
Troubleshooting
Planter is unstable after mounting.
Check that the screws or anchors are securely fastened to the wall. Use longer screws or different anchors if necessary, depending on your wall material.
