Gabion Basket – 70 x 70 x 65 cm – Galvanised Iron Garden Planter & Border
The Galvanised Iron Gabion Basket is a high-strength structural solution engineered to create a durable, architecturally striking border or planter for residential and commercial landscapes. Constructed from heavy-duty iron with a corrosion-resistant galvanised coating, this 70 cm square basket is designed for maximum stability and long-term outdoor performance. The system utilizes a robust 3.5 mm wire diameter and a precise 5 x 10 cm mesh grid, ensuring it can safely contain a variety of heavy infill materials such as sandstone, basalt, or recycled concrete. Equipped with strengthened internal hooks to prevent bulging under pressure, this gabion is the definitive choice for homeowners looking to establish permanent, low-maintenance garden features that double as decorative accents and structural retaining elements.
Best For: Creating heavy-duty plant borders, constructing decorative garden pedestals, establishing low-level retaining structures, and adding a modern "hardscaped" aesthetic to patios and backyards.
Key Features
- Corrosion-Resistant Galvanised Finish: Features a high-quality galvanised layer that provides a critical barrier against rust and environmental oxidation, ensuring the silver finish remains stable throughout all seasons.
- Heavy-Gauge 3.5 mm Wire: Engineered with industrial-strength wire to provide superior rigidity and load-bearing capacity, allowing the basket to withstand the lateral pressure of stone infill without deforming.
- Strengthened Internal Gabion Hooks: Includes reinforced metal links that pull opposing panels toward each other, maintaining a perfectly square 70 x 70 cm footprint and preventing the "bowing" effect common in inferior wire products.
- High-Density 5 x 10 cm Mesh: The precision-welded mesh grid is optimized to retain a wide variety of natural materials, allowing for versatile aesthetic choices ranging from large river rocks to decorative coloured stones.
- Multi-Purpose Landscaping Tool: Beyond its use as a planter border, the cubic 65 cm height makes it an ideal structural base for garden benches, bollards, or tiered landscape elevations.

Oversized Item Delivery Options
Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.
Business Delivery:
- Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
- If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
- If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
- Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.
Lead Times:
- In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
- Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.
While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

- Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).
Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
