Product Usage Instructions
Preparation:
- Clear the installation area of grass, loose soil, mulch, and debris.
- Ensure the soil is solid and level with no debris under the edging tabs.
- Compact the cleared soil to reduce movement of anchoring spikes.
- If using weed fabric, follow product directions for installation before placing the edging.
- Allow the edging to relax in the sun for thermal expansion before installation.
Installation:
- Place the edging with anchoring tabs facing the planting bed.
- Use a rubber mallet to pound anchoring spikes through tabs to secure the edging.
- Pull the edging tight between spikes.
- Backfill with mulch, rock, or ground cover to the top of the edging.
- Ensure tabs are completely covered with bedding material.
Cutting the Edging:
Cut the edging at the midpoint between anchoring tabs using hand snips or a
fine toothsaw.
Additional Tips:
- For connecting edging ends, overlap the final tab on each end and pound a spike through both holes.
- Allowing the edging to expand in the sun before installation can reduce waves in straight installations.
- Extra spikes may be needed for certain conditions and designs, available for purchase separately.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Clear the installation area of all grass, loose soil, mulch, and debris. Place edging on the cleared surface with anchoring tabs facing the planting bed.
- Use a rubber mallet to pound anchoring spikes through tabs to secure the edging. Pull the edging tight between spikes.
- Backfill to the top of the edging with mulch, rock, or other ground cover. Assure tabs are completely covered with a thick layer of bedding material.
HELPFUL TIPS & INFORMATION
Preparation:
- The soil must be solid and level. Assure there is no debris between the landscape edging tab and the dirt below. Compact the cleared soil prior to installation to reduce spike movement from shifting ground and frost heave.
- Weed fabric can minimize the spread of invasive weeds and grass. If desired, install fabric according to product directions. Then, place the landscape edging over the fabric and begin to pound anchoring spikes through the edging tabs and weed fabric.
- Before installation, it is important to let the edging relax in the sun to allow for thermal expansion. Installing the edging when expanded and pulling tightly can reduce undesirable waves in straight installations.
Installation:
Certain conditions and landscape designs will require additional spikes, which
are sold separately in stores and online. Use a rubber mallet to pound spikes
into the ground. Pound spikes only to the top of the edging tab. Too much
tension on tabs can result in wavy edging. To connect edging ends, overlap the
final tab on each end and pound spike through both holes.
Cutting the Edging:
Cut edging at the midpoint between the anchoring tabs using hand snips or a
toothsaw.
