Mesh & Barrier Systems
Mesh and barrier systems are essential components of rockfall mitigation and slope stabilization. We design and install systems that contain loose material, control rockfall trajectories, and intercept high-energy impacts across highways, rail lines, mining operations, and industrial facilities.
Complete Rockfall Protection Systems
Rockfall is unpredictable. Controlling it requires systems capable of handling variable block sizes and energies, withstanding weather, freeze-thaw cycles, and long-term corrosion, integrating with structural stabilization (bolts, dowels, anchors), and operating reliably in steep and remote terrain. Mesh stabilizes the slope surface; barriers protect what lies below. Combined, they create comprehensive rockfall defense.
Common applications include highway and railway protection, mine haul roads and pit walls, industrial facilities in mountainous regions, post-fire slopes exposed to rockfall or debris flow, urban development adjacent to unstable rock, and tunnel portals and cut slopes.
Choose Mesh & Barrier Systems when slopes exhibit loose or blocky rock, freeze-thaw cycling, repeated rockfall events, weathered or decomposed rock faces, steep slopes above roads, rails, or structures, or high-energy rockfall potential due to elevation or geometry.
Rock Supremacy delivers full-service installation for all protective systems: rope-access installation on vertical and overhanging slopes, helicopter-supported transport for remote sites, custom anchoring and drilling for difficult geology, energy-dissipation device installation on attenuators, fully engineered barrier foundations (micropiles, concrete pads, anchors), and integration with bolts, dowels, and shotcrete systems.

How We Do It
Proven methods and specialized techniques that deliver reliable, long-lasting results.
Draped Mesh Systems
Draped mesh is a passive rockfall control system that hangs steel mesh from a single row of crest anchors and uses gravity tension to capture detached blocks and channel them into a catchment area at the slope toe.
Gabion Baskets
Gabion baskets are rock-filled wire mesh containers that act as flexible gravity walls, channel armor, and slope buttresses on infrastructure projects. They are manufactured to ASTM A975 (double-twist hexagonal mesh) or ASTM A974 (welded wire fabric) and used to retain earth, armor streambanks, and protect bridge foundations against scour.
High-Energy Rockfall Barriers
High-energy rockfall barriers are flexible ring-net catch systems rated above 3,000 kJ for sites where large blocks, tall fall heights, or long-runout slopes drive impact energies beyond the capacity of standard barriers. These kits use heavier posts, longer brake-element strokes, and engineered foundations to dissipate impacts up to 10,000 kJ.
Pinned Mesh Systems
Pinned mesh is the active, source-control configuration of a slope mesh system. Steel wire mesh is laid against the rock or soil face and locked at every nail or bolt intersection on a 6 to 13 ft grid, restraining loose material at the source rather than catching it after release into a toe catchment.
TECCO Mesh System
TECCO is Geobrugg's high-tensile diamond steel wire mesh for active slope stabilization. The 1,770 N/mm² wire and pressed spike plates transfer nail load into the mesh body, actively restraining loose rock and weathered material in place rather than catching it after release.
Wire Rope Netting
Wire rope netting is a high-capacity cable-net rockfall system built from interlocking 8 to 12 mm spiral-strand steel wire ropes per ASTM A1023, used for multi-ton boulder containment on slopes where the design block exceeds the working range of woven steel mesh.

What Our Clients Say
We take pride in building lasting relationships with our clients through exceptional service and results.
"It amazes me how quick these guys adapt to challenging and seemingly overwhelming construction situations in the best, and most creative approach. Very smart, dedicated, hardworking group of brave workers in hazardous work sites. Not the type of work just anyone can do! Keep up the good work!"
"We've been doing business with Rock Supremacy for many years now. Rowan and the whole staff are true Professionals with highly skilled employees and specialty equipment. Highly recommend Rock Supremacy!"
"We engaged Rock Supremacy for a very challenging cliffside project that involved the stabilization and reinforcement of a retaining wall which ultimately required a total of ten drilled horizontal rock anchors, multiple vertical stabilization pilings and encapsulation with concrete structural reinforcement. Even though my residential project, as large as it was to me, was of a much smaller scale than the company often deals with, it approached the task with all of the consideration and professionalism I could hope for. Notably, they were not hesitant to take on a challenging terrain even with its limited access. From the outset, Corey Muir was very engaged in the project and with finding workable solutions. He was eager to explore alternative options for accomplishing the goals and worked diligently with my engineering consultants to tweak the design for a practical, affordable solution. Throughout the planning process, he maintained excellent communications with myself and our structural engineers. Corey was careful to make sure, prior to our final agreement, that all details were fully understood. The company began the project exactly when anticipated. The on-site crew, David, Nate and Jules proved to be the "A" team. They are very skilled and professional. I found them considerate, easy to interact with, and flexible with regard to change possibilities. The team showed careful concern for my property and all possible avoidance of collateral damage while completing a job that involved some very heavy equipment. When the concrete supplier was unduly delayed, they took it in stride and made the best of the situation. The job was actually finished a little ahead of schedule. Definitely a five star rating for this group, I would be happy to further discuss my experience with anyone contemplating the use of Rock Supremacy's services."
