Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure you have a level surface for installation.
- Assemble the gabion structure according to the provided instructions.
- Crucially, wear safety shoes and protective gloves as the metal wires can be pointed and sharp-edged.
- Carefully fill the gabion with your chosen material, such as rocks or gravel, ensuring even distribution for stability.
- Once filled and positioned, you can add soil and plants, or use it as a decorative element.
Compatibility:
This gabion raised bed is compatible with most standard garden fillers like rocks, gravel, and crushed stone. It can be used with various soil types for planting once the base is established. It is designed for outdoor use.
Care:
- Inspect periodically for any damage or loosening of the wire mesh.
- The galvanised steel is rustproof, but prolonged exposure to highly corrosive environments might affect its finish over extended periods. No specific cleaning is usually required beyond occasional brushing if dirt accumulates.
