Boulders (<4")
Applications & Uses
Boulders in a <4" Size Range
Boulders in a size range of less than 4 inches are naturally occurring or mechanically broken stones that offer a unique blend of strength and versatility. Unlike larger landscape boulders, these smaller pieces are easier to handle and position, making them suitable for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.
The sub-4-inch size allows these boulders to be used as accent stones in garden beds, edging for pathways, or as part of decorative rock features. In commercial settings, they are often utilized for erosion control, small retaining walls, or as riprap along shorelines and drainage channels. Their substantial weight and irregular shape help prevent movement, while the smaller size makes installation more manageable compared to larger boulders. However, due to their size, they may not provide the same dramatic visual impact as larger stones but offer greater flexibility in design and placement.
