5m Pack Rust-Effect Steel Lawn Edging 100/125/150mm

This rust-effect steel lawn edging is a permanent answer to the long-standing problem of keeping neat edges along lawns, paths, flower beds and vegetable beds, and it can be used in a wide range of soil conditions. Supplied as a 5m pack (5 x 1m strips) in 100mm, 125mm and 150mm depths.

The rust-effect finish is both attractive and practical: its special steel-finish coating weathers naturally to give a rusted look over time, typically in around 1-2 months depending on rainfall.

Key Features

• Steel finish that develops a natural rust effect as it weathers
• The surface rust does not weaken the steel; it sits on top of the metal and protects it from the elements
• Engineered from 1.6mm gauge galvanised mild steel with a corrosion-resistant finish
• Maintenance-free once installed
• Can be laid straight or curved and bent to shape as required
• Strips lock onto one another for a continuous edge
• Simple to install with just a heavy hammer or mallet, a screwdriver and a block of wood

How to Use

1. Start by forming a new edge or re-cutting your existing one. The edge can be straight or curved.
2. Position the edging where it is needed. Lay a block of wood on top of the edging and hammer it into the ground until it sits roughly 15mm below the level of your cut grass. Curve or bend the edging as needed.
3. Join each strip by locking it onto the previous piece. Below the locking piece is a tongue, which should be pushed through the hole using a screwdriver.

A lawn edging iron can be used to help with installation. In poor ground conditions, a pin and sleeve system can be used to anchor the edging securely.
