We offer modern wall with the best quality that meet all your needs.
Structurally sound panel and post retaining walls are available from Wonder Walls, the retaining wall specialists in Perth.
Retaining wall posts are normally 130mm square and spaced at 1150mm centres. In most cases the posts are twice as long as the wall is high – e.g. a 600mm high wall would use a 1200mm long post. Half the post is placed in a hole excavated in the soil and then backfilled with an appropriate strength material – i.e. 1 part cement to 4 parts damp sand, or similar.
In the case of walls higher than 1200mm additional reinforced concrete backing panels are used to distribute the load at the base of the panel.
Standard panels 300mm deep, with half panels 150mm in depth, are used in conjunction with each other to allow a retaining wall height from 300mm to 1500mm in increments of 150mm.
Wonder Walls can also be constructed alongside a driveway, and specifications for a light vehicle surcharge wall are also available. Detailed engineering specifications for the erection of a wall in sand or clay are available.
Posts: 0.600 to 2.900 x 0.130 x 0.130 metres
Panels: 1.050 x 0.300m; 1.050 x 0.150m; and 1.050 x 0.450m
Footings: 0.350 to 0.450 metres across
There are many advantages to choosing Wonder Walls over other retaining systems:
Minimal use of space
Wonder Walls can be retained right to the edge of the block, which means a fence can be erected immediately behind the wall. They make for excellent garden and landscaping retaining walls.
Low Cost
The cost for the supply and erection of a wall is generally cheaper than most other retaining wall systems.
Strength & Durability
Wonder Walls offers the perfect retaining wall solution. Their concrete composition and galvanised steel reinforced panels make them extremely strong. The steel is completely encased in the panel and there are no exposed ends; they can’t rot or corrode, and they provide a quality finish that is maintenance-free and lasts a lifetime.
Easy to Install
Wonder Walls is designed for the Do-It-Yourself enthusiast. This DIY retaining wall system does not require skilled labour and is quick and easy to install. The panels are relatively light and can be handled easily by one person.
Independently Tested
The concrete used in Wonder Walls panels and posts is regularly tested by an independent testing laboratory to ensure consistency of the design strength.

Wonder Walls precast concrete panel and post retaining walls are 100% compliant with all the current and relevant Australian Standards – and these include:
Changes made include:
No changes were required to what are already extremely strong panels.
No – but a fence can be placed directly behind a Wonder Wall, and the distance required between the rear of the wall and a fence will vary depending on the type of fence being used, typically 100mm.
This includes a Colorbond fence.
The Wonder Walls system has been designed specifically as a retaining wall system. It is an engineered product capable of withstanding the various forces imposed on it by the earth that is being retained.
While it is true that some of our customers have in the past used Wonder Walls as a fence rather than a retaining wall, it is important to recognise that the system has not been designed to be a fence. For instance, the textured finish is on one side of the panel only – the rear of the panel is the side that should be holding back the earth.
