A maker of segmental retaining wall systems that publishes design and installation guidance for walls, seat walls and outdoor features.
Allan Block describes itself as a manufacturer of segmental retaining wall systems. Its website shares product information, design tools and installation guidance for residential and commercial walls. Owners in Nashville planning terraces, seat walls or tall retaining walls can read how block walls are designed to hold soil with drainage and reinforcement.
We are an independent company and are not part of Allan Block. A wall depends on its base, drainage and, for taller walls, reinforcement and engineering. We explain those parts in plain language and use block from many makers, always following the installation instructions for the product we choose.
