Incorporation pierre empilée in your home’s aménagement en dur is one of the most effective ways to upgrade your home’s exterior and outdoor living areas. Not only is it extremely popular, attractive, and timeless — it’s also easy and low-maintenance, thanks to MSI’s stacked stone ledger panels.

We’re here to tell you the truth: MSI’s stacked stone ledger is crafted from real natural stone, and although it’s top-quality, it’s also an extraordinary value.

If you’ve been turned off by the disappointing look of some stacked stone installations, it’s possible you’ve encountered a phony. Budget-conscious property owners sometimes choose the lowest-priced option but end up paying the price by having to live with low-quality results. 

Choose the best! MSI uses real stone in its panels, not a look-alike. Also, unlike low-end ledger panels, MSI’s panels are not restricted to straight lines. Shown here, Blanc doré — natural split-face quartzite hugs curves to create any number of hardscaping accents. 

TRAVERTIN ARGENT

Fake stacked stone ledger panels are sometimes passed off as the real thing — but, in reality, they are made from a stone and concrete mixture that is painted to resemble natural stone. Before making this important investment, ask questions and do your research to make sure you are getting true natural stone! 

You can’t beat the look of real stone to create spectacular outdoor living spaces, like this shaded outdoor kitchen and bar crafted with Silver Travertine. MSI’s ledger panels are easy to cut to size so you can create any number of inset areas or unique shapes.

One of the best qualities of MSI’s ledger panels is the availability of matching corner pieces. These are not offered by every manufacturer, so be sure you’re getting the best! Without matching corners, the installer must carefully miter the edges, which adds to the labor cost of the project and may not look as good. Some may just overlap the edges, which gives an amateur appearance.

MÉLANGE DE MAISON 3D

Stacked stone panels are ideal for large, dramatic installations — but you can’t overdo them in your hardscape plans, so there’s no reason to use anything else for those smaller features. Use ledger panels to face flower beds, murs en pierre empilés, banquettes, colonnes de clôture et tout autre élément mineur pour lequel vous souhaitez un impact majeur. 

Casa Blend 3D, une combinaison de travertin à face fendue et à finition polie, présente des tons chauds de beige et de crème qui se fondent bien dans n'importe quel paysage. Comme nos autres panneaux de rebord, ils peuvent être utilisés pour créer des courbes gracieuses et comprennent des pièces d’angle pour s’adapter aux espaces les plus étroits.
