Collection: Palisade & stake

The palisade is a decorative and functional element used mainly in landscaping. It can be made from various natural stones such as slate, schist, granite, sandstone or even quartzite. Its main function is to mark out spaces, retain embankments and clad walls, while bringing a unique look to your garden.

Palisades come in different formats and sizes, which lets you play with heights, create stepped descents and add a touch of originality to your walls. For perfect harmony, you can choose the same natural stone as the one used for the floor, the steps or the wall copings. However, feel free to let your imagination run wild and mix colors and natural stones to create a unique, personalized design.

The edging is mainly used to mark out or retain small differences in level. The height of edgings is generally limited to 20-25 cm, with a length ranging from 60 to 100 cm. It is the perfect option to define and separate different areas of your garden.

Unlike the edging, the palisade is a more versatile choice in terms of dimensions. It comes in heights ranging from 25 cm to 200 cm, and its width varies from 12 to 25 cm. This makes it easy to create curves and to build stepped descents. Its variety of formats and dimensions is a real advantage, and it can be used to retain embankments or clad walls of considerable height.

Installing a palisade requires a few essential steps to ensure its stability and durability. First of all, it is recommended to set the palisade in lean concrete to a depth of 10 to 30 cm, depending on the height of the palisade. If the palisade is very tall and the pressure of the earth may be significant, it is preferable to concrete the rear section to reinforce its strength.

It is important to note that a palisade on its own can under no circumstances be used as a retaining wall on large embankments. There are several options for installing your palisade, but it is recommended to call on the experience of a professional to make sure you get a solid and lasting result.

One of the advantages of the palisade is that it is easy to maintain. To clean your palisade, simply use a water jet and a little moss remover.

If the north side of the palisade is prone to moisture and moss formation, you can also use a specific outdoor cleaner such as the Allex product from the Lithofin range. You will find specialized products in your Minéral stores. Do not hesitate to ask our sales staff for advice.

Absolutely! Palisades with a width of 25 cm are generally better suited to this use. If you wish to use the palisade as a privacy screen, opt for greater heights, over 175 cm. Keep in mind that the price per piece will inevitably be higher for larger dimensions.

For a more harmonious landscape design, it is advisable to choose the same stone for the floor, the stair treads, the copings, etc. With a little imagination, it is entirely possible to mix colours and types of stone. There is a wide choice of palisades, in many different natural stones (slate, basalt, granite, sandstone, limestone…). All these natural stones offer remarkable robustness.

No, the palisade is not limited to a purely decorative role. With its various heights, it offers many possibilities for your future project. It is ideal for breaking the monotony of long walls and creating harmonious transitions between terraces and embankments. Thanks to the different height options, you can give your garden a distinctive style and create a unique world that reflects you.

Palisade prices may vary depending on the chosen product, format and finish. However, it is important to note that compared with building a concrete block wall, the palisade is generally a more economical and durable solution. Prices are generally quoted per piece.
