FAQs

What material is the lawn edging made from?

The lawn edging is made from high-quality steel with a rust finish.

How long is the total coverage of the set?

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

Can I shape the edging into curves?

Yes, the flexible construction allows you to shape the edging into straight lines, gentle curves, or more intricate designs.

How high does the edging sit above ground?

Once installed, the edging sits approximately 8cm above ground level.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

No, the integrated spike design allows for easy insertion into the ground without the need for specialist tools. A rubber mallet may be helpful for harder soil.

Will the rust affect the durability of the steel?

The rust finish is a natural part of the aesthetic and does not significantly compromise the durability of the steel for garden edging purposes.

Can I paint the edging if I don't like the rust colour?

While technically possible, painting over the rust finish may require specific metal preparation and paints, and the painted finish may not be as durable as the natural rust.

Troubleshooting

Edging panels are difficult to insert into the ground.

Ensure the ground is slightly damp. For very hard soil, consider using a rubber mallet to gently tap the integrated spike into the ground.

Panels do not lock securely together.

Check that the connection points on both panels are clear of debris. Ensure the locking mechanism is aligned correctly before attempting to secure it.

Edging appears unstable after installation.

Ensure each panel's spike is driven sufficiently deep into the ground. Verify that all locking mechanisms are fully engaged.

Excessive rust transfer onto adjacent surfaces.

Allow the edging to weather for a period before planting very close to it. You can also temporarily place a barrier material during the initial rusting phase.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a beautiful, naturalistic aesthetic with its rust finish.
  • Easy to install without the need for special tools.
  • Offers flexibility in shaping the garden borders.
  • Durable steel construction ensures longevity.
  • Clearly defines garden areas for a tidy look.

Cons

  • The rust finish may transfer slightly when new or wet.
  • Edging height of 8cm may be insufficient for very tall plants or dense ground cover.
  • Requires manual insertion, which could be labor-intensive for very large areas.
  • The rusted appearance is permanent and cannot be easily changed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Unpack the five 1-metre steel panels.
  2. Identify the integrated spike on each panel.
  3. Choose the desired location for your border.
  4. Insert the spike of each panel firmly into the ground. For harder soil, a rubber mallet might assist.
  5. Connect adjacent panels using the dual locking system to ensure a secure fit.
  6. Shape the panels as needed to follow your garden's contours.

Compatibility:

This edging is designed for use in soil, grass, and garden beds. It is compatible with most standard soil types. It is not intended for use on hard surfaces like concrete or paving stones.

Care:

Due to its rust finish, no specific care is required. The natural rusting process is part of its aesthetic. To maintain the appearance, avoid harsh chemical cleaners. If rust transfer is a concern, allow the edging to fully weather before planting immediately adjacent to it, or place a barrier during the initial period. Clean with a damp cloth if necessary.
