Description

GARTENDEK L-04 holds the absolute height record across the entire GARTENDEK product range: 45 cm — 3 cm taller than the next tallest models (L-02 and M-04 at 42 cm). With external dimensions of 87 × 83 × 45 cm and an interior coverage diameter of ø 67 cm, it is the only model in the entire GARTENDEK lineup that covers objects ø 61–67 cm at heights exceeding 42 cm.

At 19 kg, the L-04 is the heaviest model in the L-series and at €390.89 the most expensive. The compact near-square footprint (87 × 83 cm, ratio 1.05:1) creates the silhouette of a classic upright vertical field boulder — the most compact form in the L-series.

Installation requires two people due to the 19 kg weight. Available in Gray colour.

What problem it solves

L-04 solves a very specific «tall + mid-diameter» concealment problem: objects in the range ø 61–67 cm that also require more than 42 cm vertical clearance. No other GARTENDEK model covers this zone.

L-03 reaches 40 cm height (too low). L-02 (archived) reached 42 cm (still too low for 43–45 cm assemblies). L-04 extends to 45 cm, making it the only option for full-height vertical stacks.

How the product works

No tools, no foundation, no site preparation required. Position the L-04 directly over the target object on any surface — grass, soil, gravel, paving. The base is fully open; no internal partitions.

  • Installation time: 10–15 minutes
  • Personnel: two persons required (19 kg)
  • Positioning: plan placement to minimise access frequency; each relocation requires two people
  • Equipment access: lift the stone to service equipment — two-person lift
  • Wind stability: 19 kg with compact footprint (87 × 83 cm) provides strong natural stability
  • Ventilation: the base is fully open with non-sealed contact with the ground surface; natural micro air exchange is possible.

Material & durability philosophy

L-04 is constructed from UV-stabilised polyresin — engineered for permanent outdoor use in European climate conditions. The surface features realistic mineral texture replicating natural boulder grain and depth.

  • UV-stabilised — permanent colour retention
  • Frostproof — engineered for EU climate
  • Fully waterproof — sealed surface
  • Maintenance: rinse with a garden hose

At 19 kg, the substantial weight contributes to excellent ground stability and wind resistance.

Note: Material is designated as polyresin in SSOT. Other models (e.g., L-03, L-01) use GFK + marble gelcoat (ISO/NPG). This difference may warrant harmonisation in documentation.

Real use scenarios

The ø 67 cm coverage diameter, record 45 cm height, and compact 87 × 83 cm footprint make the L-04 purpose-built for tall, mid-diameter concealment scenarios:

  • Tall pool sand filter assemblies — complete vertical stack — tanks ø 55–65 cm with multiport valve + pipework, total height 43–45 cm; L-02 (42 cm) and L-03 (40 cm) are insufficient; L-04 is the only model that provides clearance
  • Vertical well pressure stations — 43–45 cm height, ø 55–65 cm
  • Tall irrigation control cabinets — 43–45 cm
  • Electrical transformer enclosures / tall utility boxes — ø 55–65 cm, heads above 42 cm
  • Raised manhole sections — collars 43–45 cm above grade
  • Compact upright decorative boulder accent

Ventilation: open base; natural micro air exchange is possible.
