If the ground is soft and\/or uneven, remove the existing top layer and replace with 50-70mm depth of crushed hardcore, compact and level.<\/p><p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: Cover the marked area out with weed membrane and fix with steel U Pins or plastic pegs in each corner and one in the centre. Trim the membrane to fit the area if necessary.<\/p><p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: Starting in one corner of the area, lay the first garden base panel on the ground so that the edges with slots are on the perimeter of the marked out area.<\/p><p><strong>Step 4<\/strong>: Working from left to right, lay the second panel by placing the slot over the peg. Repeat the laying process working from left to right creating as many rows as necessary ensuring the slots are laid over the pegs.<\/p><p><strong>Step 5<\/strong>: Once the building &#8211; such as a greenhouse &#8211; is complete, fill the panels with gravel. Each panel will take approximately 8kg of gravel to fill. Filling the panels will increase the strength and durability of the base.<\/p><p><strong>Step 6<\/strong>: Install the garden building onto the newly created garden base.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-ea354df\" data-id=\"ea354df\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2629021 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"2629021\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gclproducts.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/03\/How-To-Install-An-X-Grid-Plastic-Base.png\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6IjM3MTEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvd3d3LmdjbHByb2R1Y3RzLmNvLnVrXC9ibG9nXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC9zaXRlc1wvMTBcLzIwMjJcLzAzXC9Ib3ctVG8tSW5zdGFsbC1Bbi1YLUdyaWQtUGxhc3RpYy1CYXNlLnBuZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"214\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gclproducts.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/03\/How-To-Install-An-X-Grid-Plastic-Base-300x214.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-3711\" alt=\"X-Grid can be installed in six simple steps.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gclproducts.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/03\/How-To-Install-An-X-Grid-Plastic-Base-300x214.png 300w, https:\/\/www.gclproducts.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/03\/How-To-Install-An-X-Grid-Plastic-Base-768x548.png 768w, https:\/\/www.gclproducts.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/03\/How-To-Install-An-X-Grid-Plastic-Base-322x230.png 322w, https:\/\/www.gclproducts.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/03\/How-To-Install-An-X-Grid-Plastic-Base-150x107.png 150w, https:\/\/www.gclproducts.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/03\/How-To-Install-An-X-Grid-Plastic-Base.png 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">X-Grid can be installed in six simple steps.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a3728d7 elementor-alert-info elementor-widget elementor-widget-alert\" data-id=\"a3728d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"alert.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-alert\" role=\"alert\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-alert-title\">Takeaways<\/span>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-alert-description\">X-Grid can be installed as a garden base with ease.

It is compliant with DIN 1072 and weighs just over 5kg per sqm.<\/p><p>\u00a0The easy-to-handle nature of X-Grid means that a single person can lay up to 100m2 per house. With its 330mm x 330mm x 40mm dimension, connecting nine panels together forms a nominal square metre. Due to the modular nature of the grid, many different shapes can be created specifically for a project with minimal product wastage.<\/p><p>It is available in three colours &#8211; black, green and neutral.<\/p><p>The unique cell design means that gravel is retained much more effectively and prevents the fill from migrating to surrounding areas, causing unnecessary maintenance such as raking or
