Gabion box or gabion basket is a rectangular wire mesh woven compartmented basket with multiple double twisted hexagonal holes. It’s usually filled with stones to stabilize mountains or riverbanks.
Gabion basket from SKYHALL® Fence is woven from low carbon steel wire with the box surface pre hot dipped galvanized and then PVC coated to make it resistant to corrosion.
As an environment-friendly solution to slope stabilization, gabion box is increasingly applied in related projects. Many contractors contact us to inquire about riverbank gabion boxes. If you are looking for a reliable gabion box supplier, here is your final stop.

Ecological Protection
Filled with stones and soil, the gabion box will provide a layer for plants to grow in. Initially, the wire mesh is needed to keep a steady structure; later the void between the stones will be filled with silt and plant roots which act as a bonging agent for the stones. With the help of the woven box, we get a natural barrier to avoid water and soil loss.
Flexibility
The double-twist hexagonal mesh construction permits it to tolerate differential settlement without fracture. This feature is especially important when the structure is on unstable soil conditions.
Low Cost
Gabion box is economical for several reasons. First, it needs little maintenance; Second, no skilled labor is required when it comes to installation and stone fill is available wherever there are stones. Third, gabions are porous, requiring no costly drainage provision.
Available Colors
All colors are available here for the gabion, however, we recommend Silver, Dark Green of RAL6005, and Dusty Grey of RAL7037 as the reference colors since they are well accepted by most of our customers.
There are several diaphragms used to divide the basket into a few cells and provide a reinforced structure. That helps retain its rectangular shape during the filling operation.
Generally, gabion boxes will be divided into cells by diaphragms at every 1 meter. Therefore, the number of diaphragms of one box depends on the box size that you need.
