Fire-Truck Accessible Steep Slope Driveway

CORE Product: CORE Gravel 60-40 in Verde Valley, Arizona

Project Details: Transforming a steep-sloped driveway to meet the approval of the local fire marshal was achieved through the use of CORE Gravel 60-40. This system offers lateral drainage capabilities, incorporates non-rotting geo-textile for weed suppression & gravel retention, and is specifically designed for steep slopes. The end result not only showcases a stunning appearance but also ensures safe and accessible vehicle access to the home.

Why are we uniquely qualified for slopes?: Our grids stand out with their innovative closed-cell design, preventing gravel from seeping underneath and causing dislodgment or upheaval over time. The non-rotting, non-woven, heat-welded geotextile creates a durable, permeable barrier that keeps your gravel separate from the subbase. This ensures your gravel remains clean and prevents contamination with subbase materials, maintaining 100% permeability over time.

Our grids feature integrated nail slots for secure installation on slopes, offering unmatched stability. These unique features are exclusive to our steep slope grid system (60-40), which has earned third-party steep slope certification and approval from US Fire Marshals. Designed for durability and reliability, our grids are the ultimate solution for challenging terrains and steep slopes.
