FAQs
What is the total length of edging provided in this set?
The set includes 5 sections, each 1 meter long, providing a total of 5 meters of edging.
How deep do the spikes go into the ground?
Each section has an 8cm integrated spike designed for secure ground fixing.
Can I create sharp corners with this edging?
These borders are best suited for gentle curves. Sharp corners may require bending the metal or using more sections to approximate the shape.
What is the visible height of the edging once installed?
Each section has a visible face of 12cm above ground.
Are the pegs for connecting the sections included?
Yes, the set includes 6 metal pegs for connecting the sections together.
What material is the edging made from?
The edging is made from durable metal.
Is this product suitable for all soil types?
It is suitable for most garden soils. Installation in very hard or rocky soil may require pre-loosening.
Troubleshooting
Edging sections are difficult to hammer into the ground.
Loosen the soil in the intended path beforehand with a shovel or fork. If encountering rocks, try to reposition the section slightly or remove the obstruction.
Sections do not connect securely with pegs.
Ensure the pegs are fully inserted into the connection points of both sections. Verify that the sections are aligned correctly before inserting the pegs.
The border appears unstable or wobbly.
Confirm that the spikes are hammered fully into the ground. Check that all connecting pegs are securely fastened. For added stability on uneven ground, consider deeper spike insertion or additional support.
Creating a tight curve is challenging.
Gentle curves are best suited for this product. For sharper bends, you may need to slightly bend the metal itself (use caution) or use more sections to approximate the curve.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Plan your desired border layout (straight lines or gentle curves).
- Position the first edging section, ensuring the saw-tooth spike is aligned for insertion.
- Gently hammer the integrated spike into the ground until the desired height is achieved, keeping the top edge level.
- Connect subsequent sections using the provided metal pegs. Insert pegs into the pre-drilled holes or slots on the connecting edges and secure.
- Continue hammering spikes and connecting sections until the entire layout is complete.
Compatibility:
These borders are designed for general garden use with soil, grass, and mulch. They are compatible with most standard garden landscapes. For installation in exceptionally hard or rocky ground, consider pre-loosening the soil or using additional tools.
Care:
Clean the metal edging with a damp cloth as needed to remove dirt or debris. While designed for durability, periodic inspection for any signs of wear or potential rust is recommended, especially in coastal or highly humid environments. A light application of metal sealant can be considered for extended protection in aggressive conditions.
