Why Retaining Walls Deserve More Than Plain Concrete
Retaining walls play an important role in landscaping—supporting soil, preventing erosion, and defining outdoor spaces. But bare concrete or block retaining walls can often look harsh and unfinished, taking away from the overall beauty of your yard.
With premium faux stone and brick ledger panels from Barron Designs, you can instantly upgrade a retaining wall’s appearance. Handcrafted from molds of real stone and brick, these ledgers give walls a finished, authentic look—without the weight, cost, or maintenance of traditional masonry.
What Are Faux Ledgers?
Ledgers are trim pieces designed to create an attractive edge at the top of faux stone or brick panel installations. On retaining walls, they act as decorative toppers that hide raw edges, soften the look of plain concrete, and add the striking appearance of expertly crafted masonry.
Made of durable high-density polyurethane, Barron Designs’ ledgers are:
- Lightweight and easy to cut with common tools
- Weather- and UV-resistant for long-lasting outdoor beauty
- Handcrafted in the U.S.A. from real stone and brick molds
- Perfect for both DIYers and professional contractors
Crucial Notes: As with all faux panels and faux ledgers, avoid using weed whackers near your installation to prevent damage. Please also note that these ledgers are not load-bearing; be sure not to sit on them or jump off of them.
