At Retaining Walls Direct, our concrete sleepers and steel posts have been used in hundreds of residential, commercial, and rural retaining wall projects across Australia. Here are some examples of what our customers have built.
A homeowner in Western Sydney needed to retain a steep 1.8m embankment to create a flat, usable backyard. Using our Charcoal Concrete Sleepers (200x100mm) and H-Beam UC Steel Posts, the project was completed over a weekend by a local landscaper. The result: a clean, contemporary retaining wall that added significant usable space and property value.
