Upgrade Your Outdoor Space with Unilock DOUBLE HOLLAND™ Pavers
Why Hardscaping Matters
Think of your backyard as an extension of your home. A beautiful patio or walkway isn’t just about looks—it’s about creating a durable, low-maintenance space for relaxing, entertaining, and making memories. That’s where hardscaping comes in! Unlike plants that require constant care, hardscape features like patios, driveways, and walkways provide long-term structure and functionality to your outdoor space.
If you’re looking for a cost-effective yet stylish way to enhance your outdoor area, let’s talk about Unilock DOUBLE HOLLAND™ pavers.
What is the Unilock DOUBLE HOLLAND™ Paver?
DOUBLE HOLLAND™ pavers are a wider version of the classic Hollandstone paver. They offer a clean, traditional look while adding variety to your design. These pavers are great for homeowners who want a reliable, durable surface for their patios, driveways, or walkways. They work well alone or combined with other pavers for creative patterns.

Here are some perfect ways to incorporate these pavers into your backyard:
- Patios & Walkways: Imagine stepping outside onto a sleek, uniform patio where your furniture sits evenly without wobbling. No more sinking chairs!
- Driveways: These pavers can withstand heavy vehicle loads, making them a great choice for stylish, durable driveways.

Installation Guide
Whether you’re a DIYer or hiring a contractor, here’s how to install DOUBLE HOLLAND™ pavers:
- Prepare the Base: Dig down at least 8”-10” to ensure stability. Lay DriveGrid™ stabilization grid for extra support.
- Base Layer: Spread and compact 6”-8” of 3/4″ Crusher Run gravel for a solid foundation.
- Bedding Layer: Add 1” layer of coarse sand for a smooth surface.
- Lay the Pavers: Arrange them in your desired pattern, keeping the gaps consistent.
- Edge Restraints: Secure the perimeter with plastic, metal, or concrete curbing to prevent shifting.
- Jointing Sand: Sweep in polymeric sand to lock pavers in place and prevent weed growth.
- Final Compaction: Use a plate compactor with a protective pad to set everything in place.
Pro Tip: If installing over concrete, ensure proper drainage and use a waterproofing membrane if there’s a basement below.
