You can use a variety of materials such as stones, rocks, gravel, or even broken concrete and bricks. Choose materials that are durable and complement your garden's aesthetic.
No, the gabion basket is designed for tool-free assembly. You only need to align the grids and twist the spiral rods to secure them.
The number of baskets needed depends on the desired height and length of your retaining wall, as well as the stability requirements of the slope. It is recommended to combine multiple baskets for larger structures.
No, the delivery includes the gabion basket and its accessories only. Stones or other filling materials are not included and must be purchased separately.
The gabion basket is designed to be stable, especially when filled with dense materials like rocks and stones. The included spacer hooks further enhance its structural integrity.
While the galvanised finish is durable, you can paint it with appropriate metal paint for aesthetics. Avoid modifications that could compromise its structural integrity.
The empty gabion basket weighs approximately 24.2 kg.
Ensure the basket is on a flat surface and gently adjust the panels before inserting spiral rods. Check for any bends in the wire.
Ensure the rods are fully inserted into the grid openings. Try wiggling the rod slightly as you twist. If a rod is bent, use a replacement if provided.
Verify that all spacer hooks have been correctly installed and that the spiral rods are tightened securely. Ensure the filling material is evenly distributed.
Minor rust spots can be cleaned and treated with a rust-inhibiting paint suitable for galvanized metal. Significant corrosion may indicate the need for replacement.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This gabion basket is compatible with a wide range of filling materials, including various types of stones, rocks, gravel, and even recycled materials. It can be combined with other gabion baskets to create larger structures.
Care:
As the gabion basket is made from galvanised iron, it is inherently rust-resistant. Regular visual inspection for any signs of damage or corrosion is recommended. Keep the area around the gabion clear of debris to ensure proper drainage and prevent prolonged moisture exposure. The included cover should be used to protect the filling material from excessive rain or debris when appropriate.
