This arched gabion basket is ideal for gardeners seeking a durable and decorative solution for creating garden barriers, retaining walls, or sound insulation. Its primary benefit is long-lasting stability thanks to its galvanised iron construction. A key consideration is that it requires filling with stones, which are not included. Key features include corrosion resistance, a sturdy wire diameter, and a design that allows for stable construction when filled.

You can use natural materials such as concrete, sandstone, coloured stones, gravel, or ordinary rocks. The material should be sized appropriately to prevent it from falling through the mesh.
No, the stones or filling material are not included in the delivery. These need to be purchased separately.
It is strongly recommended to wear safety shoes and protective gloves, as the metal wires can be pointed and have sharp edges.
The galvanised iron is corrosion-resistant and requires minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect connections and ensure the filling material remains stable.
While it provides stability, for significant slopes or load-bearing walls, consult with a structural engineer to ensure the gabion basket and its placement meet safety requirements.
The dimensions are H:60.0 x W:200.0 x D:50.0 cm.
Yes, multiple baskets can be placed next to each other to create longer barriers. The hooks are designed to connect the panels securely.
Ensure the hooks are inserted correctly into the mesh openings. Gently adjust the panels to allow for a flush connection. Refer to the manual for detailed hook placement.
Check that the basket is placed on level ground. Ensure the filling material is distributed evenly and compacted slightly. If the ground is uneven, consider adding a stable base layer before placement.
Always wear sturdy protective gloves and safety shoes during assembly and handling. Use caution when manipulating the wire panels.
Ensure the mesh is tightly woven and the filling material is appropriately sized to not fall through the openings. For finer materials, consider a geotextile liner (sold separately) inside the basket.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This gabion basket is compatible with a wide variety of filling materials, including concrete, sandstone, coloured stones, and common landscaping rocks. It is suitable for use on most stable ground surfaces in outdoor environments.
Care:
Given its galvanised iron construction, the gabion basket requires minimal care. Periodically check the structure for any loose connections or signs of wear. Ensure the filling material remains stable. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth if necessary, avoiding abrasive cleaners that could damage the galvanised coating.
