FAQs

What size stones should I use to fill the gabion basket?

The size of the stones will depend on the desired aesthetic and stability. Generally, stones that are too small may shift or fall out, while stones that are too large might be difficult to fit. A mix of sizes can also create a visually interesting effect.

Are stones included with the gabion basket?

No, the stones or filling materials are not included with the delivery. You will need to purchase these separately.

Can this gabion basket be used for a vegetable garden?

While gabion baskets can be used as retaining walls for garden beds, direct contact with edible plants may require lining to prevent potential leaching from filling materials. Its primary design is for decorative and structural purposes.

How do I ensure the gabion basket is stable on uneven ground?

For best stability, place the gabion basket on a level and compacted surface. If the ground is uneven, you may need to level the area first or use additional supporting materials beneath the basket.

What are the exact dimensions of this specific model?

This model has the dimensions of H:50.0 x W:300.0 x D:120.0 cm.

Can the gabion basket be painted or modified?

While the galvanized iron provides corrosion resistance, painting or modifying the basket may compromise its protective coating. It is generally recommended to use it as is or with compatible filling materials.

Troubleshooting

Gabion basket does not hold its shape

Ensure all gabion hooks are securely fastened and connecting the wire panels tightly. Check that the filling material is evenly distributed and compacted within the basket.

Difficulty assembling panels

Consult the included manual for specific instructions on connecting the panels. Ensure you are using the correct gabion hooks in the designated spots.

Sharp edges are a concern during assembly

Always wear heavy-duty protective gloves and safety shoes as recommended in the product description. Handle panels with care and avoid direct contact with wire edges.
