Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you buy. Can't find the answer? Contact our team.

We sell premium black steel edging, corten weathering steel edging, stainless steel edging, and a full range of accessories including rubber mallets, gardening gloves, edging stakes, weed barriers, and kneeling pads. Each product is available through our country-specific stores.

Black steel edging is the most popular choice for contemporary and modern gardens. Its clean, minimal profile creates crisp contrast between lawn and beds, blending seamlessly with modern landscaping materials like gravel, pavers, and concrete.

Corten is a weathering steel alloy that forms a stable, protective rust patina when exposed to weather. Unlike regular steel rust which causes deterioration, this patina actually seals the metal and prevents further corrosion. The result is a beautiful warm brown colour that improves with age and can last 50+ years.

We deliver worldwide. We have dedicated stores for Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, Singapore, the UK, and the USA. If you are outside these countries, please contact our support team at [email protected] and we will find the best shipping solution for you.

Delivery times vary by country. Orders within Australia, Canada, the UK, and the USA typically arrive within 3–7 business days. International orders to other countries can take 7–14 business days. You will receive tracking information once your order has been dispatched.

Absolutely. Our products are designed for DIY installation. Most homeowners complete a standard garden bed edging project in an afternoon using a rubber mallet, gloves, and basic garden tools. We have a comprehensive blog with step-by-step guides to help you through every step of the process.

For most home gardens, 1.5mm–2mm black steel is perfect — flexible enough to follow curves and sturdy enough to hold its shape. For commercial landscaping, high-traffic areas, or very hard soils, choose 3mm or thicker. Corten edging typically starts at 3mm for structural integrity as it forms its protective patina.

Installing on slopes requires good staking. Use U-shaped or T-shaped anchor stakes every 30cm along the run, driven vertically into the soil. For steep slopes, you may need to cut the edging into shorter sections and step them down the gradient. Our blog has a detailed guide on slope installation.

Yes. Our thinner steel edging (1.5mm–2mm) can be bent by hand to follow gentle curves. For tighter radii, use your knee or a rounded object as a guide. Corten and stainless steel in 3mm+ require more effort but can still be curved for sweeping organic bed shapes. Never create a kink — always work the bend gradually.

Contact us within 48 hours of delivery with photos of the damage. We will arrange a replacement or refund promptly, no questions asked. We take packaging seriously to prevent transit damage, but if something goes wrong, we make it right immediately.

No. All our steel edging products are safe for plants, soil organisms, and pets. The small amount of iron that leaches from steel edging can actually benefit iron-loving plants. Corten edging may cause slight staining on paving near the edging as the patina develops — this is purely cosmetic.

As a general rule, bury at least one-third to one-half of the edging in the ground. For a 100mm-tall edging, bury 35–50mm. Deeper burial is better in loose or sandy soils. The edging should sit just above or level with the soil/lawn surface for the cleanest visual effect.

Bury your edging at least 50mm deep to form a root barrier. For particularly aggressive grass varieties like Buffalo or Kikuyu, combine steel edging with a weed barrier fabric beneath the mulch layer. Regular maintenance edging with a half-moon shovel along the inside face will also keep grass in check.

We are continuously working to reduce packaging waste. Our metal products are shipped with minimal plastic, using recyclable cardboard and paper padding where possible. The edging itself is 100% recyclable at end of life, making it a much greener choice than plastic alternatives.

Yes. We work with professional landscapers and trade buyers across all our markets. Contact our team at [email protected] with your project requirements and quantities, and we will discuss trade pricing and fast-track delivery options.

Corten is fine near water features, but avoid fully submerging it or situations where run-off will permanently stain light-coloured paving. The rust tones it produces can beautifully complement water features and natural stone, but note the tannin-coloured run-off during the initial patina formation phase (typically the first 6–12 months).

Quality powder-coated black steel edging typically lasts 10–15 years in the ground under normal conditions. Factors that reduce longevity include very acidic soils, constant saturation, and coastal salt air. For coastal or high-moisture environments, stainless steel is the longer-term investment.

For most installations you need: a rubber mallet (available in our shop), leather gardening gloves for safe handling, a half-moon edging spade or flat spade to create the slot in the ground, a measuring tape, and string line for straight runs. Our complete kits include everything you need in one package.

Yes. Our edging connects end-to-end using either our dedicated joining stakes (which overlap the two sections) or by overlapping the sections by 50–100mm and driving a U-stake through both. This creates a seamless continuous run of any length. Our joining accessories are sold separately in our accessories range.

No minimum order. You can buy a single section or hundreds of metres — we treat every order with the same care and attention. Larger orders will benefit from reduced per-unit pricing, which is reflected in our tiered pricing structure on each country store.

We accept all major credit and debit cards including Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. PayPal is available in most markets. Apple Pay and Google Pay are also accepted. All transactions are processed through a secure, encrypted checkout. We never store your payment details.

Yes! Our complete edging kits are specifically designed for first-time installers. They include the edging strips, anchor stakes, a rubber mallet, and installation instructions — everything you need to achieve a professional result, even if you have never installed edging before.

Yes, steel edging is excellent for vegetable garden beds. It creates a clean barrier between your growing area and lawn, helps retain moisture and mulch, and gives you a clearly defined space for crop rotation planning. Ensure the edging is buried deep enough to block lateral grass root encroachment.

Stainless steel costs more upfront but never rusts, stains, or corrodes — making it the ultimate long-term investment. Regular powder-coated black steel is very durable but may eventually show surface oxidation where the coating is scratched. Choose stainless steel for coastal gardens, tropical climates, or if you want a true lifetime product.

Absolutely. A rubber mallet is the recommended installation tool for metal edging. The soft rubber face transfers force without damaging or denting the edging face, and the wooden handle absorbs vibration to reduce hand fatigue. Never use a steel hammer directly on edging — it will deform the top edge and look unsightly.

Yes. We accept returns on unused, undamaged items. Please see our Shipping & Returns policy for the full process and timeframes. If you are unsure whether a product is right for you before buying, contact our team — we are happy to advise based on your specific garden conditions and goals.

Weed barriers are laid on the soil surface inside the edged area, then covered with mulch. The barrier blocks sunlight from reaching weed seeds in the soil while allowing water and nutrients to pass through. Used together, metal edging and a quality weed barrier create a near-maintenance-free garden bed border system.

Metal edging does not significantly affect drainage. It creates a vertical barrier that can help concentrate water within the bed during light rain, which is actually beneficial for planted areas. In very heavy rainfall, ensure there are low points in your edging run to allow excess water to escape and prevent waterlogging.

Metal edging edges can be very sharp, especially when freshly cut. Always wear leather or heavy-duty gloves when handling, positioning, or cutting edging. Keep children and pets away from the work area during installation. Once installed and buried, the edging presents no safety risk as the sharp top edge is minimal.

Measure the total perimeter of the bed or area you want to edge, then add 10% for overlaps and waste. For complex curved shapes, use a garden hose or string to follow the desired line and then measure the hose length. Our team is happy to help calculate quantities — just send us a rough sketch with measurements.

How to Choose the Right Garden Edging

Your complete resource for selecting, buying, and installing the perfect garden edge for your home or professional project.

Understanding Garden Edging Materials

Choosing the right garden edging begins with understanding the materials available and how they perform in real-world conditions. The garden edging market today offers three primary metal options — black steel, corten weathering steel, and stainless steel — each with distinct performance characteristics, aesthetics, and price points. Metal edging consistently outperforms plastic alternatives in every meaningful metric: longevity, soil containment strength, visual impact, and resistance to frost heave.

Black Steel Garden Edging

Black steel garden edging is the benchmark product in professional landscaping and the most popular choice for homeowners seeking a modern, clean aesthetic. The powder-coated matte black finish creates a dramatic contrast against green lawns and light-coloured mulch. When you buy black metal garden edging, you are investing in a rigid, sharply defined border that will remain in place through freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rainfall, and years of lawn mower passes.

The key specification to consider when selecting black metal garden edging is thickness. For residential flower beds and lawn borders, 1.5mm provides adequate strength while remaining flexible enough to follow curves. For pathways, driveways, and areas with aggressive grass varieties, choose 2mm–3mm. Commercial installations benefit from 3mm+ for maximum rigidity and longevity.

Corten Border Edges

Corten border edges represent the intersection of function and artistry. Corten steel — technically a copper-chromium-nickel alloy — was originally developed for railway carriages and structural applications that required weathering resistance without painting. Garden designers discovered that this material's natural rust patina is extraordinarily beautiful when used as a landscape border.

When you buy corten border edges, you are purchasing a product that genuinely improves with age. The patina forms within 6–18 months of outdoor exposure and, once stable, prevents any further corrosion. This self-healing quality means corten steel edging is truly low maintenance — it simply needs to be installed and left to develop its character. The warm amber and deep brown tones complement natural stone, timber, gravel, and native plantings beautifully.

Stainless Steel for Coastal and High-Moisture Gardens

For gardens in coastal zones, tropical climates, or areas with permanently high soil moisture, grade 304 stainless steel garden edging is the premium choice. Its chromium content creates an invisible oxide layer that prevents corrosion absolutely. A stainless steel edging installation made today will look identical in 30 years — and the material is 100% recyclable at end of life, making it the most environmentally responsible choice over a long time horizon.

Choosing the Right Height for Your Application

Garden edging height is a functional specification that dramatically affects the performance of the installation. The visible height above ground creates a mowing edge and defines the visual border; the buried depth creates the root barrier that stops grass and weed creep.

Standard Heights by Application

For lawn-to-bed transitions where the primary goal is creating a mowing edge and a clean visual line, 50mm–75mm edging (with 25–35mm buried) is typically sufficient. For garden beds with deep mulching, raised planters, or areas with aggressive stoloniferous grasses, 100mm–150mm provides a more complete root barrier. Driveway, path, and retaining applications benefit from 150mm–200mm edging buried to at least half depth.

Installation Guide: Getting Professional Results

Correct installation is as important as product selection. The most common installation mistakes — insufficient burial depth, poorly staked runs, and poorly prepared trenches — account for most cases of edging that shifts, rises, or tilts over time.

Preparing the Ground

Use a half-moon edging spade to cut a clean, near-vertical slot in the ground along your planned edging line. The slot should be 5–10mm wider than the edging thickness to allow easy positioning. For curved runs, use a garden hose to mark the desired line before cutting. Remove any grass roots from the slot base — this prevents them from pushing the edging upward over time.

Staking and Securing Your Edging

Anchor stakes are the most underestimated component of a garden edging installation. Use U-shaped or T-profile stakes every 300mm–500mm along straight runs, and every 200mm on curved sections. Drive stakes vertically with a rubber mallet — angled stakes lose holding power dramatically. For very hard or rocky soils, pre-drill pilot holes with a steel spike before driving anchor stakes.

Connecting Multiple Sections

Long runs require connecting multiple lengths of edging. The best method is to overlap adjacent sections by 50–100mm and drive a single stake through both sections at the overlap point. This creates a mechanically locked, seamless join. Avoid butting sections end-to-end without overlap — this creates weak points that may separate over time.

Maintenance and Longevity

Metal garden edging is remarkably low maintenance compared to plastic or timber alternatives. Black powder-coated steel should be checked annually for any areas where the coating has been damaged (typically by mower impacts), which can be touched up with cold-galvanising spray paint. Corten and stainless steel require no maintenance whatsoever beyond keeping soil clear of the top edge to prevent obscuring the border.

Seasonal Care

In climates with severe frost, check edging stakes in early spring — frost heave can push stakes upward slightly. Simply re-seat them with a rubber mallet. In very wet periods, ensure water is not pooling against the edging face for extended periods, which can accelerate corrosion in uncoated steels. In areas with highly acidic soils (pH below 5.5), stainless steel is strongly recommended over black steel.

Edging for Specific Garden Styles

Contemporary and Minimalist Gardens

Black steel edging is the definitive choice for minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired, and contemporary garden styles. Its near-invisible profile at ground level allows the landscape itself to command attention while the edging quietly does its structural work. Pair with white gravel mulch or dark bark chip for maximum visual contrast.

Cottage and Traditional Gardens

Corten steel creates a beautifully organic border in cottage and traditional garden settings. The warm rust tones echo terracotta pots, aged brick, and natural timber — materials that are common in traditional garden design. Corten's aged character also makes new installations look immediately established, which is valuable in mature garden settings.

Native and Ecological Gardens

Native plantings and ecological gardens benefit from edging that is sympathetic to the natural environment. Both corten and stainless steel are excellent choices. The absence of paint coatings means no risk of chemical leaching, and the permanent nature of metal edging means no repeated digging and replanting that disturbs established ecosystems.

Productive Kitchen Gardens

Kitchen gardens, vegetable plots, and herb gardens benefit enormously from defined metal edging. It clearly delineates growing areas, facilitates efficient watering, and prevents lawn grasses from competing with vegetables for root space and nutrients. Stainless steel is the food-safe choice if this is a consideration for you.
