Gabion Wall Side Gate

If your yard requires a side gate, why not dress it up a little? This gabion wall with an attached gate by @cebuildersaz provides privacy and access to the yard while adding visual interest. The versatility of gabion walls means you can build them as short or as tall as you need for a side fence, and fill them with whatever material best fits your landscape aesthetic.

Multi-Texture Gabion Wall

This gabion wall by @earthdesignsgardendesign utilizes different materials to create a beautiful patchwork pattern. Individual baskets keep the material separated, while spiral binders along the basket edges join them together to make one solid wall.

The different fillers, including wood, slate, stone and brick, offer distinctive texture. When combined like this, they create a high-impact look.

Gabion Fence Columns

An entire fence made with gabion baskets looks great, but adding contrasting materials can make it stand out even more. These gabion columns filled with dark stone pop against the wood fence panels for a modern look. And because gabion baskets are built with flexible but resistant wire mesh, they make strong fence columns that won’t crack.
