NDS EZ Roll® Gravel Pavers: An Overview
Build stable, traffic-ready gravel driveways, access roads, and parking areas that reduce runoff and preserve a natural look.
EZ Roll® gravel paver panel with honeycomb cells ready for infill.
What Are EZ Roll® Gravel Pavers?
NDS EZ Roll® Gravel Pavers are roll-out, honeycomb plastic mats that confine gravel to prevent ruts, spreading, and washouts. Sections interlock quickly, then are backfilled with clean, angular aggregate to create a drivable, permeable surface that looks and performs like a well-kept gravel road.
Key Benefits
High load capacity — when properly designed and installed, systems can support heavy vehicles (H-20/H-25).
Fast installation — roll format with side locking tabs and included anchors speeds production.
Stays in place — shared-wall hex cells minimize lateral gravel movement and rutting.
Permeable by design — promotes on-site infiltration and reduces runoff.
Durable & sustainable — recycled HDPE with UV inhibitors for outdoor longevity.
Rolling out and connecting pavers over a free-draining base.
Where EZ Roll® Works Best
Driveways and residential lanes
Overflow and event parking lots
Fire lanes and emergency access roads
Maintenance and utility access routes
Trails, cart paths, shoulders, and swale crossings
Specs at a Glance
Format: Roll-out system; nominal roll width ~4 ft (installed ~46"), length ~150 ft; ~577 sq ft coverage per roll.
Cell geometry: Nested hexagonal cells with shared walls for load distribution.
Material: Recycled HDPE with UV inhibitors; thermal-welded geotextile fabric underlayment.
Strength: High unfilled compressive strength (≈53,683 psf); supports H-20/H-25 loads when properly designed and installed.
Anchorage: Typically includes steel anchors; use edge restraint at transitions and perimeters.
Filling cells with clean, angular aggregate to lock the surface.
Installation Overview
Evaluate subgrade. Verify bearing capacity and drainage; remediate weak, saturated, or expansive soils as required.
Build the base. Place and compact a free-draining aggregate base sized to project loads.
Lay the pavers. Roll out EZ Roll® sections, align, and connect side locking tabs. Anchor per guidance.
Infill. Backfill cells with clean, angular gravel (no fines); screed flush with cell tops for stability.
Finish. Check grades and transitions; add edge restraint at perimeters and turning areas.
Design Notes & Best Practices
Load rating depends on the full section—subgrade, base, and paver—working together. For heavy vehicles or emergency access, follow manufacturer details for base thickness and subgrade prep. Always use clean, angular stone to maximize interlock and drainage.
Case Study: A Permeable Overflow Lot That Doesn’t Wash Out
Project: 15,000 sq ft overflow parking for a community event center
Challenge: Seasonal storms washed gravel into swales, leaving potholes and muddy tracks. Asphalt would increase runoff and require detention.
Solution: EZ Roll® Gravel Pavers were installed over a compacted base. Rolls connected quickly, anchored in place, and cells filled with 3/8" angular gravel. The surface stayed level and permeable.
Result: The lot handled weekend traffic without rutting. Maintenance dropped to occasional raking/top-off, while infiltration reduced puddling compared to loose gravel.
Maintenance
Rake to redistribute gravel after high-traffic use.
Top-off with matching aggregate if depletion occurs.
Inspect edges and transitions; re-secure as needed.
FAQs
Can EZ Roll® handle fire trucks?
Yes—when engineered and installed to heavy-load details with an adequate base and proper subgrade prep.
What aggregate works best?
Clean, angular stone (no fines). Rounded pea gravel is not recommended because it doesn’t interlock well.
How much area does one roll cover?
Approximately 577 sq ft per roll (installed width ≈ 46", nominal length ≈ 150 ft).
Are these ADA-friendly?
When filled flush to the cell tops with proper gravel size, surfaces can meet accessibility performance requirements. Verify with local codes.

Support for Gravel Roads & Parking Lots
EZ Roll Gravel Pavers reduce erosion and help maintain the look and functionality of a gravel road or parking lot. Made with 100% recycled materials, the pavers also minimize surface water runoff and present an attractive and sustainable alternative to traditional concrete or asphalt. Recommended Applications: Golf cart paths, service roads, jogging tracks, bike paths, truck & cart wash-down areas, RV & boat access and parking, residential driveways, parking lots, overflow parking lots, roadways shoulders, fire lanes, emergency vehicle access roads, truck maintenance and equipment yards, construction entrance soil stabilization. In addition to these load applications, EZ Roll Gravel Pavers are also an effective solution for erosion control on slopes and in swales.

NDS gravel pavers are available in tan, black, brick red, and gray to provide design flexibility when choosing gravel color and application.
A continuous piece of geotextile fabric provides the strength to hold the gravel fill in place, yet is porous to allow for the filtration of stormwater runoff.
A continuous piece of geotextile fabric provides the strength to hold the gravel fill in place, yet is porous to allow for the filtration of stormwater runoff.
To fill for the gravel paver, use clean, washed gravel that is uniform in size and sized between 3/16" and 3/8". Angular stones work best and will not migrate as round stones will.
