The Gabion Wall, which is often referred to as a Gabion Fence, is one solution that is both affordable, and relatively fast to construct. The materials used, and the skill required to construct one, are not enormous, which means that these fantastic solutions are great options for DIY enthusiasts, and for the same reasons, are also often used by industrial, municipal and military in a variety of landscaping solutions. These structures are practical, long lasting, and can be built into nearly any form factor and shape that one can imagine.

In simplest terms, a gabion wall is a wire basket that is filled with stones or other materials, which contains the contents in the confined shape and size of the basket. The lifespan of these structures is determined by the wire itself, which means they will endure the test of time, and can be repaired as the wire deteriorates. The choice of wire used in the creation of the ‘basket’ is an important part of your materials selection process. The most popular of the wire types used is galvanized steel, though there are variety of options available to you depending on your budget and requirements.

Weld Mesh Gabion when hand filled with decorative stone facing is also increasingly being used as architectural cladding for walls and buildings in Ireland.
