Design retaining walls more than 40 feet high with VERSA-LOK Weathered Mosaic





RESIDENTIAL/COMMERCIAL

VERSA-LOK offers five attractive segmental retaining wall systems equally suited for residential and commercial applications: Standard, Accent, Cobble, Mosaic and our newest product, Mosette, a lightweight freestanding wall system.

Since 1987, VERSA-LOK has been creating “Solid Solutions” for architects and engineers with the industry’s original solid, top-pinning segmental retaining wall system. Our low-absorption, high-strength, solid concrete units provide not only the long-lasting durability engineers expect, but also the limitless number of design options architects demand.

Create curves, corners, stairs, columns and freestanding walls using Standard, Cobble or Accent VERSA-LOK units, or combine the three to form the random-pattern Mosaic Retaining Wall System. You can even build walls taller than 40 feet with VERSA-Grid soil reinforcement. VERSA-LOK is available in the classic split-face texture at all locations, and also the vintage Weathered texture at select locations. Whatever your choice, solid VERSA-LOK systems are easy to install and provide a lifetime of virtually maintenance-free performance.

 



VERSA-LOK Standard unit

 

Our original, most popular unit. Contractors, engineers and landscape architects agree its solid construction and unique pinning system provide an endless array of design options, hardcore durability and the fastest, easiest installation available. Also available in an increasingly-popular Weathered option at selected dealers.

  VERSA-LOK Cobble unit
About half the size of the Standard unit, Cobble units are perfect for planters, small walls and garden-variety projects as well as large, expansive commercial and governmental walls. Smaller and conveniently lighter than its big brother Standard unit, a Cobble unit possesses durable characteristics equal to units twice its weight. Of course, Cobble units use the same top-down pinning systems as other VERSA-LOK units, saving you time and installation costs.

VERSA-LOK Accent unit
A slimmed-down version of the Standard unit, Accent units measure 4 inches tall by 12 inches wide. They're lighter than Standard units, but engineered with the same high-strength, low-absorption concrete. Easily installed, Accent units draw minimal attention to the wall, saving the spotlight instead for surrounding landscapes, buildings and homes.

VERSA-LOK Mosaic panel
VERSA-LOK Weathered Mosiac panelCreate eye-catching designs by combining all three VERSA-LOK units to form the random-patterned Mosaic Retaining Wall System. Attractive and durable, the Mosaic system utilizes the same four-unit panel (10" x 24")–consisting of one Standard, one Cobble and two Accent units–giving each wall a vintage look and feel. Although its pattern may seem complex, the simplistic four-unit Mosaic panels are just as easy to install as our Standard, Cobble or Accent Retaining Wall Systems.

 

 




Inspired by stately European courtyards, VERSA-LOK Mosette freestanding walls bring definition and elegance to your landscape. Use Mosette to create beautiful borders along patios and walkways. Its height and sturdy construction make it ideal for perimeter seating.  Mosette utilizes four versatile unit sizes to easily create a random appearance in both straight and curved arrangements.

SPECIALTY COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS

In addition to our line of traditional segmental retaining wall systems for residential and commercial applications, VERSA-LOK also produces Square Foot and Brute, two products specially designed for select large-scale commercial or agency projects. Square Foot and Brute both are designed using VERSA-LOK’s unique top-pinning system and are manufactured to the same industry-exceeding standards as our other products. Brute and Square Foot use the same cap units as other VERSA-LOK systems.

 


Square Foot is a premium cored unit that covers a full square foot of wall face economically, making it a low-cost alternative for some commercial applications. Its trapezoidal shape and top-pinning system allow for variable bond construction, accurate alignment, tighter vertical joints and easy installation. Square Foot’s unique design enables a near-vertical setback, and its thick face affords greater durability than other cored systems.

Width (face): 18" (457.2 mm)
Width (rear): 14" (355.6 mm)
