Efficiency and precision are key when constructing durable retaining walls. With Tobermore’s range of Secura retaining wall tools you can streamline installation while ensuring structural integrity, perfect alignment and a high-quality finish – all while saving time and effort. 

Designed to optimise workflow, these tools are essential for delivering professional, long-lasting results. Our intuitive tools and dedicated team of retaining wall specialists are here to help at every step of your retaining wall journey. Whether you are an architect or civil engineer at the planning stage, or a groundworker on-site constructing a beautiful Secura wall, Tobermore is here to help. 

In this blog, we will explore exactly how our Secura tools can enhance your projects and support superior build quality at every stage. 

Kickstart your retaining wall project with Secura FastFind  

If you’re an architect or civil engineer starting your journey with retaining walls, getting your project off the ground can feel daunting. Between understanding site conditions, choosing the right materials, and visualising how everything will fit together, the early planning stage is often the most challenging. This is where Secura FastFind comes in. 

Secura FastFind is designed to help you quickly access the cross sections and niche details you need to get a clearer picture of your retaining wall design. With just a click of a button, you can access indicative sections and other essential information, allowing you to narrow down your options and understand the specific requirements of your site. 

This tool is perfect for those who are still in the early stages of planning, providing key details that will help you make informed decisions. Whether you’re dealing with varied site conditions, different wall heights, or pedestrianised spaces, Secura FastFind can help you navigate all the specifics that will influence your retaining wall design. Simply enter your site conditions and required wall height and Secura FastFind will instantly provide you with a downloadable design drawing.

Once you’ve got a sense of your options, it’s time to bring your vision to life with SketchUp, a 3D modelling software that allows you to visualise how your Secura retaining wall will look on your site. Instead of imagining the design in your head, our designers can bring it to life in a realistic 3D model, helping you make adjustments, fine-tune measurements, and ensure everything fits together seamlessly. By using SketchUp alongside Secura FastFind, you get the perfect combination of technical details and visual clarity, making the planning stage much less overwhelming.

Simplify the proposal stage of your retaining wall project 

When you’re in the proposal stage of a retaining wall project, time is often of the essence. As architects and civil engineers juggle multiple projects and tight deadlines, creating detailed construction plans can sometimes feel like a daunting task. Let us do the hard work for you and save valuable time with a TSE, a detailed construction plan drawn up for you by our in-house experts. This service has been designed to make your life easier. By having a professional team handle the technical aspects, you can ensure the proposal is accurate and focus on the other creative and strategic areas of your project. 

For any smaller projects, draw up your own plans with our intuitive, easy-to-use Secura Create tool. Secura Create is not only easy to use, but it also gives you instant feedback. As you draw your wall, the tool automatically estimates the quantities of materials required, ensuring you can make cost-effective decisions right from the start. You’ll have a clear, professional plan to present to clients or stakeholders without the need for complex software or external resources.

Streamlined pricing for winning retaining wall projects 

Accurate pricing can make or break a project bid. With the Secura Portal, groundworkers can quickly estimate costs, factor in backfill materials and labour, and even calculate automatic rebate estimations – all in one place.  

No more waiting on quotes – simply log in, price your project, save your work, and pick up where you left off.

Engineering drawings made easy 

With our cutting-edge Secura Create Wall and Secura Create Pro tools, you can easily transition from concept to comprehensive design. SCWall (Secura Create Wall) is an AutoCAD plugin that lets you plot the true footprint of a Secura Grand wall directly onto your site layout or external works drawings, ensuring every detail aligns with your project’s requirements from the very start. 

Taking it a step further, SCP (Secura Create Pro) transforms your SCWall file into full engineered sections, elevations, and plan views, complete with all the necessary analysis and calculations (excluding global stability). Whether you’re a consultant or an engineer, our intuitive platform empowers you to quickly develop precise and professional designs. And if you need a helping hand, our specialist engineer is ready to sort out the AutoCAD drawings for you, making the entire engineering process more efficient and effective. 

Expert on-site support for the perfect retaining wall construction 

Groundworkers can streamline their on-site process with our dedicated Toolbox Talks and Construction Support Pack, designed to provide all the essential information for constructing a flawless retaining wall. We understand that busy sites demand efficiency and clarity, which is why our support pack covers every detail you need for a clean, professional installation. From initial guidance to detailed instructions, we make hard landscaping easy, ensuring you have the confidence and tools to get the job done right. 

Our retaining walling experts are ready to visit your site and walk you through every step of the construction process through our Toolbox Talks. Whether you have questions or need on-the-spot advice, we’re here to ensure your Secura wall is built perfectly each and every time. With our comprehensive support pack left in your hands, you’ll have everything required for a seamless and professional installation, letting you focus on what you do best.
