The GrassGrids Multigrid 481 is the ideal solution for homeowners looking to create a strong, tidy, low-maintenance driveway or reinforced garden surface.

Note 1: The vertical loading strength of all grids will easily handle the maximum wheel load of any road vehicle in the UK. The turning forces and dry steering (turning the wheel while stationary) is the main cause of damage of these grids. It is therefore important to establish vehicle class use before specifying.

Signing for your Delivery
All materials must be signed for when they arrive on site, we would politely request that you sign and clearly print your name, therefore in the unlikely event of a delivery discrepancy we will have a person to contact by name.
