AB Classic Charcoal & St. Helens

Stack a sturdy retaining wall without mortar, footings, or specialty tools. AB Classic blocks lock together with a raised lip and notch that sets each row slightly back from the one below. That built-in angle leans the wall into the slope for stability. The hollow core drains water through the structure instead of building pressure behind it. Use one block size for simple builds or mix all four sizes in an Ashlar pattern for a textured, staggered look.
