FAQs
Does the Gabion Basket come with the stones inside?
No, the basket is sold as a wire cage only. You will need to source your own stone or aggregate filler.
Can I stack these baskets to make a taller wall?
Yes, they can be stacked, but ensure you securely wire or bolt the baskets together to maintain structural safety and stability.
Is the steel resistant to rust?
Yes, the basket is made from hot-dip galvanized steel, which is specifically treated to resist rust and corrosion in outdoor environments.
What tools do I need for assembly?
No tools are required. The panels connect using a twist-together design, and cable ties are included for reinforcement.
Can this be used for a water feature?
Yes, as long as the material used to fill the basket is inert and suitable for use in water, such as cleaned river stones.
What are the dimensions of the unit?
The basket measures 30 x 30 x 60cm.
Troubleshooting
The basket panels feel loose or wobbly before filling.
Ensure all twist-lock mechanisms are fully engaged and secure the panels with the included cable ties for extra rigidity.
Stones are falling out through the mesh.
Verify that your stone aggregate size is larger than the 50 x 50mm mesh opening. If you must use smaller stones, line the interior with a fine-gauge wire mesh.
The structure is leaning after being filled.
Empty the basket and ensure the base ground is perfectly level. Use a foundation layer of compacted gravel or concrete pavers beneath the basket for better stability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To assemble the basket, align the side panels and use the integrated twist-together mechanism to lock them into place. Ensure all edges are secure before adding the stone fill. Once the structure is positioned where you want it, use the provided cable ties to secure the panels at critical points to prevent bulging. For care, inspect the mesh annually for signs of damage. While the galvanization prevents rust, keep the basket free of climbing plants with aggressive roots, as they can sometimes shift the stone fill over time. If the basket is used near a pond, ensure the ground beneath is compacted to prevent sinking.
