The Selections Gabion Mesh Cage is ideal for homeowners and garden enthusiasts looking to create decorative landscaping features, custom planters, or sturdy retaining walls without the need for complex masonry work. Its primary benefit is the tool-free, spiral-connected assembly that provides immediate structural integrity for stone-filled projects; however, users should be aware that the basket requires a significant quantity of fill material, which must be purchased separately.

No, the Selections Gabion Mesh Cage does not include stones or any filling material.
Yes, they can be stacked for height, provided the ground is firm and the stack is stable.
The cage is made from galvanized steel, which is specifically designed to be weather-resistant and rust-inhibitive for outdoor use.
No tools are required. The spiral mechanisms are designed for easy manual connection.
While the mesh can be cut, doing so will compromise the integrity of the galvanized coating and the structural strength of the cage.
The empty mesh cage is lightweight and easy to position before filling.
Ensure all internal strengthening hooks are correctly installed and taut to distribute the pressure of the fill material.
Check that the mesh edges are perfectly aligned. If the mesh is slightly bent, use pliers to straighten the wire ends before threading the spiral.
Ensure the ground surface is level. If necessary, place the basket on a flat paver or compacted gravel base for better support.
Setup begins by unfolding the mesh panels and aligning the edges. Use the provided spiral connectors to join the corners by twisting them along the seam until secure. Before filling, install the strengthening hooks at regular intervals across the width of the basket. Compatibility with various filling materials is high, including river stones, crushed rock, or broken masonry. Maintenance is minimal due to the galvanized coating, though you should occasionally inspect the mesh for debris and ensure the ground beneath has not shifted. For long-term longevity, ensure the basket is kept on a stable, non-erodible surface.
