FAQs

What materials can I use to fill the gabion baskets?

You can use a variety of natural materials such as stones, gravel, crushed concrete, or even specially coloured decorative stones to fill the gabion baskets.

Are the stones included with the gabion baskets?

No, the stones or any filling material are not included with the delivery. You will need to purchase these separately.

What are the specific dimensions of each basket?

Each basket has dimensions of approximately 200 cm in width, 50 cm in depth, and a height that ranges from 40 cm to 60 cm due to its arched design.

How many gabion baskets are included in this set?

This set includes 6 arched gabion baskets.

Is this product suitable for use in coastal areas?

The galvanised iron construction offers corrosion resistance, making it suitable for various outdoor environments. However, prolonged exposure to harsh salt conditions may eventually affect the coating.

Do I need any special tools for assembly?

Basic assembly typically involves connecting wire panels using the provided hooks. While no specialized power tools are usually required, sturdy work gloves are essential for safety.

Troubleshooting

Gabion is not stable after filling.

Ensure the gabion was placed on a level surface and that the filling material was distributed evenly. Check that all wire panels are securely connected with the provided hooks.

Wire edges feel sharp during assembly.

Always wear thick protective gloves and safety shoes when handling and assembling the gabion baskets. Refer to the manual for the safest assembly method.

Gabion shape is distorting.

Confirm that the strengthened gabion hooks are used correctly and have tightened the opposing wire panels firmly. Ensure the filling material is packed densely and evenly.
