Easy Installation
The AB Metropolitan Collection is easy to install. These blocks dry-stack without mortar or footings. The hollow core feature makes them easier to handle and promotes good drainage behind the wall. The raised lip and notch lock each block in place and creates a natural setback. The AB Metropolitan Collection is right at home in residential settings where retaining walls 6ft (1.8 m) and under are typically called for, and up to the task on larger retaining walls 6ft (1.8 m) and over.
Check with your local Allan Block manufacturer to ask when this product will be available in your area.
