Troubleshooting

Gabion basket losing shape

Ensure the basket is filled evenly and compactly. Verify that all strengthened hooks are securely fastened to connect the panels tightly.

Difficulty connecting wire panels

Ensure the panels are aligned correctly. Use pliers gently if needed to adjust the wire ends for hook insertion. Refer to the manual for specific hook placement.
