HELPFUL TIPS
RECOMMENDED
TOOLS:
• Spade or shovel
• Rubber mallet
• Hacksaw
CUT EDGING:
Cut edging with a hacksaw or reciprocating saw. Always take
proper safety precautions.
CONNECTING EDGING:
Overlap edging ends six inches. Use two stakes to secure ends.
The head of the stake will cover both thicknesses of the edging
when driven into the ground.
ANCHORING STAKES:
Some installations may require more anchoring stakes;
supplementary stakes are sold separately.
Plastic stakes can break if driven into rocks or heavily
compacted soil. Moistening soil can help soften the installation
area. If you encounter a rock when installing the edging,
reposition the stake to avoid damaging the stake.
CREATE CORNERS:
Cut edging at corner and abut pieces together. Anchor at
each end to secure properly.
CREATE CURVES:
Composite edging is easiest to bend when warm. Allow
edging to sit in the sun to warm prior to installation.
SEASONAL MAINTENANCE:
I
n areas with uctuating climates and signicant rainfall, soil
may shift over time. When periodic maintenance is needed,
use a rubber mallet to pound the stakes back into the ground.
