At Henry Timmis Ltd, we specialise in robust, long-lasting retaining wall solutions, including king post retaining systems — the ideal choice for managing earth retention on narrow access sites or along roadways and footpaths.
As shown in the image, our team uses specialist equipment such as auger drill rigs to accurately install steel H-section king posts. These posts are driven deep into pre-bored holes to ensure maximum stability and load-bearing performance, ready to receive concrete panels. This method provides fast and efficient earth retention with minimal disruption to the surrounding area.
Once the king posts are securely in place, we install precast concrete panels between them to form a clean, strong retaining wall — as shown in the second image. This modular design ensures a quick install time and long-term resilience against lateral earth pressure.
