Installation Notes

Installation Guidance For Schwabengitter® 2000:

  • Level ground with a gradient of 1 to 2 %.
  • Place a 20 to 40 cm thick layer of gravel or crushed aggregate over the ground according to your requirements and to the load that is to be absorbed. Use a material permeable to water for areas without a grassed fi nish. Use unwashed gravel or mineralized concrete for better root growth for grassed areas.
  • Install and compress the sub-base.
  • Place Schwabengitter® 2000 pavers onto the gravel layer. Pavers can be cut to fi t around obstructions and contours.
  • Fill Schwabengitter® 2000 pavers with specifi ed sand and substrate. Finished levels should be 1 cm below the top of the cells after settlement.
  • Apply the selected seed mix for Schwabengitter® 2000 pavers.
