Gabion Calculator, Design & Cost

  • If you have measured the length of your required retaining wall and know the height you wish to retain, but are unsure of what gabion baskets to use, then type these details into the calculator below.
  • This will give you all of the gabion baskets required to build your retaining wall, based on a standard design and show you the layout of the gabion baskets. As our gabion baskets are only made as standard in increments of 0.5m, please input your sizes to the nearest 0.5m. You can cut down the end gabion baskets and rewire together with the lacing wire on site to make up exact distances.
  • All sizes when descibed in metric are nominal (.5m = 533mm, 1m = .99m, 1.5m = 1524mm, 2m = 1981mm)
  • There is also an option to choose hand laying partitions on this screen, which allows you to use low quality or smaller stone behind the divider, and good quality stone on the front where it is visible. This can produce significant savings in areas where stone is expensive. If you are not located in zones 1-3 please call for a delivery price. We also ship gabions to Europe. If your retaining wall is larger, or you wish to speak to someone about your requirements, please don't hesitate to call us as we will be more than happy to help.
  • The designs given on this page should not be used as a substitute for taking detailed and specific advice from a structural engineer. The recommendations and advice are given without Liability on the part of Fine Mesh Metals and should not be relied upon for any action or inaction. A more detailed description of the suitability and limitations is available on the Standard designs page.

Please input the length and height of your wall into the custom calculator below. The calculator will do the design, and price the gabion baskets required. Standard thickness is 3mm for walls up to 3m in height.

    Well worth buying these. Speeds up the assembly and looks tidier than wrapped wire when assembled. Strong wire which makes the ends tough to bend inwards.

    The Helicoil spring (1m) is a strong metal coil that keeps its shape and was a great time saver when assembling the Gabion baskets for the first time.

    As of yet the gabion kits have not been assembled because the site is not ready for them. I have inspected the kits and was impressed with the quality. I haved rated 5 stars because the delivery was within 24 hours of ordering and the customer service was second to non with ref. to a query I sent via the contact messenger with a near instant response. Thank you. Please accept this comment for all items purchased. I would definitely recommend highly the company and products to anyone.

    Having used gabions before and wired them together by hand, using the helicoil was a dream! It not only secures a single cage's sides effortlessly, but allows cages to be joined seamlessly to ensure a straight wall is achieved. Easy to shorten if required and excellent value for money.

    Great,quick and easy way to lace gabions. Only issuee is that one cut in half leaves lengths just a bit short for a standard 50cm gab ion

    An excellent product that helps achieve neat and well aligned joins between gabions. I had to initially tie the gabions together with wire and install the helicoils as the gabions were filled. I was surprised how well the whole process worked.

    These helicoils add the finishing touch to your gabions for a consistent, uniform and strong edge. Just minimal wiring is required to pin the cages together and then the helicoils are simply 'screwed' down into position. Certainly leave the gabion cages with a contemporary and tidy appearance.
