The advantage of gabion wall

Gabion walls have many advantages that make them attractive for landscape design, architecture and other uses. These are some of the main reasons for the construction of gabions.

Gabion walls are relatively cheap.

Gabion walls are much cheaper than retaining walls built with stacked stones, bricks, pavers, or concrete. Wire mesh baskets are not expensive, and you can choose the right filling materials according to your budget, including construction leftovers, bricks or stones.

These materials are easy to transport and can be moved later.

The filling materials required for gabion baskets and gabion walls are easier to transport than large stones and bricks. Even after you have built the gabion wall, you can later disassemble it and easily move it to a new location in your yard (or elsewhere).

Gabion walls can be built quickly.

The gabion wall structure is relatively simple, and the wall is relatively short, so no heavy equipment is required. Building gabion walls is much easier than trying to build dry stone retaining walls, especially when your construction experience is limited.

You can build gabion wall without worrying about drainage. The perforated gabion retaining wall design allows water droplets to flow and prevents your yard from being over saturated.

Gabion retaining wall will not crack.

Over time, water, settlement or other factors can cause cracking of standard brick, stone or concrete retaining walls. At the same time, gabion walls do not have a solid base, but use flexible wire baskets. This design prevents walls from cracking and keeps the structure flexible and sturdy.
