Hot Dipped Galvanized Welded Gabion Cage Retaining Wall Lowes Gabion Stone Baskets

Description

Weled Gabion Cage is manufactured from a main panel that forms the face, base, rear and lid of the unit. The side panels and diaphragms are then jointed to the base section of the main panel. The unit is then folded flat for transportation.

Welded Gabions are top quality because the wire is welded on precision, microprocessor controlled welding machines. The result is the strongest welded wire mesh in the industry.

As a result we virtually eliminate destructive holes in the zinc coating that are created during welding. In addition, our galvanizing is the most pure - 99% pure zinc - Which you can be assured will provide your gabions with the utmost in corrosion protection.

Feature

How to install Welded Mesh Gabion?

1) Foundation preparation
The foundation on which the gabions are to be placed shall be cut or filled and graded as required. Surface irregularities, loose material, vegetation, and all foreign matter shall be removed from foundation surface area. Extra care should be taken with foundation preparations in order to ensure a level and smooth surface.

2) Assembly
Rotate the gabion panels into position and join the vertical edges with fasteners for gabion assembly. Where spiral fasteners are used, crimp the ends to secure the spirals in place. Where C ring type alternate fasteners are used for basket assembly, install the fasteners at a maximum spacing of 150 mm. Use the same fastening procedures to install interior diaphragms where they are required. Interior diaphragms will be required where any inside dimension exceeds 1m for gabion baskets. Diaphragms will be installed to assure that no open intervals are present that exceeds 1m.

3) Placement
Place the empty gabions on the foundation and interconnect the adjacent gabions along the top, bottom, and vertical edges using spirals or C rings.

4) Filling
The gabions shall be carefully filled with rock, ensuring alignment, avoiding bulges, and providing a compact mass that minimizes voids.
The last layer of rock shall be uniformly leveled to the top edges of the gabions. Lids shall be placed over the rock filling using only approved lid closing tools as necessary. The use of crowbars or other single point leverage bars for lid closing is prohibited due to the potential for damage to the baskets. The gabion lid shall then be secured to the sides, ends, and diaphragms with spiral binders, approved alternate fasteners, or lacing wire wrapped with alternating single and double halfhitches in the mesh openings.

Application

Welded Gabion Design has reinvented Gabions for more uses: building facades, bench seats, outdoor fire surrounds, fences and fence foundations, sound barriers, custom furniture, fountain and pond surrounds, mail boxes, planters, and even pillars for water taps.

Garden gabion can be incorporated into the design of a garden anywhere there is a readily available supply of local rock. The visual appearance will be determined by the type of rocks selected or available. For example, some rocks can create an almost schist-like effect. They can be used in small courtyards as well as large estates or large-scale commercial projects.The maximum rock sizes you can use will depend on the size and form of the baskets you select.
