What safety precautions should I take during installation?

Wear safety shoes and protective gloves. Be aware that metal wires can have pointed and sharp edges. Assess hazards and take protective measures, as detailed in the product manual and warnings.

What additional items are needed for installation?

You will need assembly and installation aids such as posts, screw flanges, hooks, and concrete for mounting, which are not included in the delivery.

Troubleshooting

Gabion appears unstable after filling

Ensure the gabion is placed on a level and stable surface. Verify that the filling material is densely packed and evenly distributed. If necessary, consult the manual for instructions on ground anchoring or using additional supports.

Difficulty assembling the gabion structure

Review the assembly instructions carefully. Ensure all mesh panels are correctly aligned before fastening. If parts seem difficult to connect, double-check for obstructions or misalignments. Professional installation is recommended if you encounter significant difficulties.

Filling material is escaping from the mesh

Confirm that the filling material is appropriately sized for the 10 x 5 cm mesh openings. Smaller materials may require a liner or a finer mesh gabion. Ensure the top and bottom covers are securely fastened.

Rust appears on the galvanised steel

While galvanised steel is rust-resistant, prolonged exposure or damage to the coating can lead to rust. Minor rust spots can sometimes be treated with appropriate metal repair products. Ensure the protective coating is not compromised during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Assembly is required. Due to the substantial weight and potential hazards associated with filled gabions, professional installation is strongly recommended. The process involves securely positioning the gabion on a stable surface and filling it with rocks or gravel. Specific installation aids like posts, screw flanges, hooks, and concrete for mounting are necessary but not included. Always follow the provided manual carefully and retain it for future reference.

Compatibility: This gabion basket is designed to be placed side-by-side with other similar gabion units to create larger structures. It is compatible with various types of filling materials such as stones, gravel, or recycled concrete. Ensure the chosen filling material is suitable for the intended application and the gabion's mesh size.

Care: The galvanised steel offers excellent rust and weather resistance. Minimal care is required. Periodically inspect the gabion for any signs of damage or corrosion, especially at connection points. Ensure the filling material remains stable and contained. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth if necessary, avoiding abrasive cleaners.
