With two grid options to choose from, you can find the system that best fits your project - from residential parking pads to steep slopes and heavy-use areas. Whether you're working on a small pad or a larger installation, CORE Drive provides the strength and stability needed for both residential (CANA Grid Heavy) and commercial (CORE Gravel 60-40 Ultra) vehicle traffic with minimal maintenance.

How to Install CORE Drive
Prepare the Sub-Base - Excavate as needed and install a compacted layer of road crush. Depth depends on your specific application, but a strong, level base is essential.
Lay the Grid System – Place your CORE Drive panels on top of the sub-base. For models without attached fabric, lay down the included geotextile first. Secure the grids with landscape spikes through the pre-cut holes if needed.
Fill and Finish – Use clean, angular gravel with no fines (around ½"). Overfill slightly so the grid disappears beneath the surface.
Reliable Strength. Low Maintenance. Better Design.
CORE Drive Handy Packs offer a smarter, cleaner, and more sustainable way to build the surfaces you rely on every day.
