FAQs

How many panels are included in the set?

The set includes 5 x 1-metre edging panels, providing a total of 5 metres of coverage.

What material is the edging made from?

The edging is made from durable, high-quality powder-coated steel for superior durability and weather resistance.

How high does the edging sit above the ground?

The edging sits approximately 8cm above the ground once installed.

Can I create sharp corners with this edging?

While designed for flexibility, sharp 90-degree corners are difficult to achieve naturally. Gentle curves and straight lines are best suited for this product. You can create angles, but they will have a natural radius.

Is assembly required?

No assembly is required. The panels connect to each other, and installation involves inserting the integrated spikes into the ground.

Is the green finish weather-proof?

The powder-coated finish is designed for superior weather resistance. However, like all outdoor finishes, it may show signs of wear over extended periods of exposure to harsh weather conditions.

Can I cut the panels to a shorter length?

These panels are not designed to be cut. Their flexibility allows for custom shapes by bending, rather than cutting.

Troubleshooting

Edging panels are difficult to insert into the ground.

Loosen the soil along the installation line with a spade or fork. If the ground is very hard, water the area beforehand to soften it.

Panels do not connect securely.

Ensure the locking mechanisms on both panels are clean and free of debris. Press the panels together firmly until they click into place.

Edging is not staying in a desired curved shape.

Ensure you are making gentle, gradual curves. For tighter curves, you may need to slightly pre-bend the panels by hand before full insertion, or add more support stakes if necessary (stakes not included).

The green finish appears to be scratched or damaged.

Minor scratches can occur with normal use. For significant damage, consider a touch-up paint suitable for metal surfaces, or accept it as part of the weathered appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Plan your layout: Determine the desired shape and path for your edging.
  2. Prepare the ground: Loosen the soil slightly along the planned line where the edging will be inserted.
  3. Position the first panel: Place the first 1-metre panel along your line, ensuring the integrated spike is ready to be pushed into the ground.
  4. Insert the spike: Gently push or tap the spike downwards into the soil until the desired depth is reached. Use a rubber mallet or a piece of wood to protect the panel if tapping.
  5. Connect subsequent panels: Align the next panel with the first, using the dual locking connection system to securely join them. Ensure the connection is firm.
  6. Continue installation: Repeat steps 4 and 5 for remaining panels, following your planned layout.

Compatibility:

This edging is designed for insertion into most types of soil. It is compatible with standard garden soil, loam, and moderately compacted earth. Avoid installation in extremely rocky or compacted clay soils without prior loosening.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the powder coating.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the connections and ensure spikes remain firmly in the ground. Minor soil adjustments may be needed after heavy rain or frost.
  • Winter: The durable steel construction is designed for year-round outdoor use. No special winter storage is required.
