Retaining walls
Retaining walls are a becoming a necessity in more and more sites. With steep blocks on the rise in many areas, they are having to think smart how to make the most out of a space, sure up the neighbouring site and try to make them as attractive as possible. They can also give their landscaping and gardens a much-needed face-lift, provide additional seating areas when entertaining, and protect soil and plants from erosion.
Building a strong retaining wall starts with reliable structural support and selecting the right retaining wall posts is crucial. Retaining Wall Posts are the locking mechanism that keeps your retaining wall safely in place—so, the importance of having durable, well-designed retaining wall posts cannot be overstated.
Galintel Retaining wall post
Galintel steel retaining wall posts are made from heavy-duty steel which is then fully hot-dip galvanised to AS/NZS 4680:2006, with their designs supported by technical ratings for a range of structural applications. This process ensures they deliver superior performance when compared to other common post materials. They are extremely durable, too, and can stand up to even the harshest of Australian weather conditions.
The Galintel Retaining Wall Posts are manufactured to suit various sleeper products including concrete and timber. The addition of holes to accommodate the fence bracket system can also provide connection of either a timber or metal fence, providing ease of installation, saving you time and money.
Other benefits
Low maintenance
Unlike other retaining wall posts, Galintel steel doesn’t warp over time. It’s termite-resistant, meaning you can install your steel posts and then ensure they will last for the lifetime of the retaining wall when installed correctly. There is minimal maintenance and no ongoing upkeep or treatment required on the part of your client when properly used, making for maintenance free living.
Save time
The steel retaining wall posts are made for efficient installation, so projects can be completed sooner. Their simple design makes them easy to assemble and install, and all posts come pre-drilled for fence bracket connection, which can be supplied complete with fixings. A complete installation guide is available so that you can install correctly the first time, every time.
Versatile in application
Retaining walls can differ in design but fundamentally perform the same function. This means that in practice, each one can be different. The Galintel design is a complete all-in-one retaining post solution. The steel retaining wall posts accommodate timber, concrete, and masonry sleepers for residential, commercial, and industrial sites.
Extensive range
Available in 100mm & 150mm series, and with an extensive range of stock lengths available, they’re designed to be used across a wide range of projects.
