Slope stabilization with gabions – Building raised beds with gabions
Below the gabion-enclosed parking lot, right next to the house, there is an earth slope. This is a good 6m long and just under 2m deep. The entire terrain is sloping at this point and the slope compensates for a height difference of around 1.5m. The slope is so steep that it slides downwards bit by bit during heavy rainfall. I had to find a solution for slope stabilization quickly.

Over the last few weeks, I have now removed the plateau and rebuilt the slope. The gabions were also set up and aligned. However, further preparations are required before backfilling can begin.

Securing the slope with gabions – preparing the ground with the excavator
In order to be able to further expand the entrance area to the estate agent’s office with its small decorative gabion wall and to finally be able to offer parking spaces, an approx. 25 meter long earth slope is to be built narrower and higher. I will build a new gabion wall

Securing a slope with gabions – 1. initial situation and preparation
I have already installed a few gabions on our property. Gabions are metal baskets that are filled with stones and thus have a decorative purpose as well as a static one. I spent more than a year working on a 30-meter-long slope stabilization with gabions.
