This retaining walling system has numerous benefits, especially when compared to standard concrete retaining walls.<\/p>\n<h2>Fast, easy mortar-free installation<\/h2>\n<p>Secura retaining walls are built up using a simple, mortar-free, dry method. Once the area behind the planned wall has been excavated, only a concrete foundation is required, and no wet trades are needed for construction of the wall. There are no mortar drying times to delay installation, meaning that constant progress can be achieved.<\/p>\n<p>Secura retaining walls can be installed by an unskilled labour force, saving time and money during construction. The placement of the blocks is simple, with a nib holding them in place. and rapid progress can be made.<\/p>\n<p>Watch our video to learn more.<\/p>\n<div class=\"video\"><iframe title=\"How To Build A Secura Grand Retaining Gravity Wall - Step By Step Installation Tutorial\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nPRr3jDWe8A?start=15&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2>Retaining Wall Design Service and Technical Support<\/h2>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\">Tobermore<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\"> offer<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\"> a range of innovative <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\">tools<\/span> that <span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\">provide<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tobermore.co.uk\/professional\/support-services\/retaining-wall-design\/\"> detailed retaining wall design and technical support<\/a> from installation through to complet<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\">ion of Secura Grand projects<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW42333184 BCX0\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW42333184 BCX0\" data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:100,&quot;335559739&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Secura Create<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:100,&quot;335559739&quot;:200,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Generating preliminary retaining wall designs, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tobermore.co.uk\/professional\/tools\/secura-create\/\">Secura Create<\/a> automatically produces elevation views, cross sections and product quantities required for your project.

The natural variation of colour provides a softer, far more attractive look than plain grey concrete.<\/p>\n<p>It is suited to areas where standard concrete would be too harsh, such as housing developments, rural areas or higher prestige urban developments.<\/p>\n<h2>More efficient use of space<\/h2>\n<p>When built up, Secura retaining walls gradually slope back, opening up areas and giving a greater sense of space compared with claustrophobic vertical concrete retaining walls. It also offers the facility to create an extra outdoor space by cutting into the slope and flattening out the area.<\/p>\n<h2>Creating curved retaining walls<\/h2>\n<p>Secura retaining walls can be easily designed and built up into curves. Design and installation guidelines are available. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tobermore.co.uk\/professional\/contact\/\">Contact us for more information<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For reinforced soil walls, the geogrid should be laid in strips around the curved wall on the first course, ensuring that the principal reinforcement direction is perpendicular to the wall, ensuring maximum strength. On the second course, alternate the placing of the geogrid, so that the whole area is covered as the wall rises.<\/p>\n<h4>Creating retaining walls with 90 degree corners<\/h4>\n<p>You can create 90 degree corners using Secura Grand retaining wall blocks. There are two types of corner block to use when constructing internal and external corners, a left and right block.
