Predrilled Coir Logs Details
EZ Coir Logs are designed for quick installation using hardwood stakes or vegetation, thanks to factory-predrilled holes spaced every 2 feet. Each hole is approximately 1.25 inches in diameter, allowing for secure anchoring or plant integration. Standard log sizes include diameters of 12", 16", and 20", with lengths available in 10' and 20'. For longer runs, logs can be connected end-to-end using coir twine.
Choose from two density options. The 7 or 9 pounds per linear foot depends on your site needs and project requirements. EZ Coir Logs are constructed entirely from natural coconut fiber and degrade gradually, typically over 12 to 24 months based on environmental conditions. Once the fiber begins to break down, planted seedlings in the predrilled holes can take root and strengthen the soil, providing extended erosion control as vegetation grows in place.

Coir Log Installation Instructions
When it comes to the proper installation techniques for these erosion control logs, see our installation overview below and review your site plan. Your sites conditions, the flow rate, and the site's impact the installation process. Here's our brief coir log installation overview:
- 1. Dig a trench if you need to and place the EZ coir log in the location where you want erosion control. This is where you consult your site-specific erosion control plan and determine the best layout for coir log placement.
- 2. Next, remove the cardboard insert from the predrilled hole in the coir log.
- 3. Place the hardwood inside the predrilled hole. The length of the stake will be determined by the diameter of your coir log and the type of soil in your location.
- 4. When installing multiple coir logs together, you can do so by attaching them, end-on-end, with coir twine.
- 5. If you are planning on using plants in the pre-drilled holes, you will likely need to use traditional coir log staking practices using landscaping stakes for anchoring as well.
EZ Coir Log FAQS
Because EZ coir logs are easy to install, all you need are the stakes you plan on using to secure the coir logs to the ground. That being said, you can also use plants in the predrilled holes of the coir logs. We have biodegradable stakes for sale that you can use to secure your predrilled coir logs. Just ask us for more information on how to buy those.
Typically, coir logs will last anywhere from 12 to 24 months, depending on site conditions. You specific site conditions will determine how long your coir logs last. As far as coir log cost goes, that will depend on the diameter and length you choose. For more information on specifics, give our sales team at call at [phone number].
