Due to popular demand we now offer a 2mm option for those on a budget or looking for a lighter weight product.
These are also far easier to bend into full circles for around Trees etc.

These 2mm x 100mm (High) Corten weathering steel strips are 2.4-Metres (2400mm) long to deliver a beautiful, long-lasting solution to many Landscaping projects; 
These lengths are designed to be used with our Retain Skins joiners and pegs, our entire Garden Edging range is made from the same material. This product is 350mpa grade high tensile.

Our happy customers use this system for;
 

• Garden Edging - Curved or Straight
• Paving perimeter
• Planter boxes
• Lawn edging (a clean attractive straight or curved edge)
• Lawn & Garden division by simply burying them to your required height

Our products are made from Australian-made Bluescope Redcor material - Keeping it Australian made is who we are.

They can be cut to your required length with a grinder and a cutting wheel, by using our 2mm Tool-Less Joiners your cut edge will not be seen as it sleeves inside the joiner. This makes the install easy and stress free! 
This system is fast & perfect for a DIY application, no bolts, no screws.

• Note: These are cut raw (silver metal finish) - Over time (a few weeks) you will see the silver finish rust over with a beautiful even rust coating. Once this happens the material is sealed and stops the rust process.

1. Grab your Tape measure 
   Measure up the length of your garden beds, add all of these measurements together and you will have your Total Lineal Meter requirement. 
   Then divide this total number by 2.4 (The length of our edging pieces). 
   Eg. 30-meters divided by 2.4 = 12.5 lengths required (we would recommend rounding up to 13)
2. Joiners - Straight, Outside Corner, Inside Corner.. Confused? Don't be. 
   Straight Joiners; If you have 10 x 2.4m lengths you would need 9 x straight joiners . It is always -1 of your total edging lengths 
   Outside or Inside Corner Joiners; If you need a crisp 90° corner these are perfect, picture yourself standing at your corner, if the edging is running away from you in both directions you need an Outside corner. If you are standing at that corner and the edging is coming back towards you, then you need an inside corner.
3. Pegs 
   These are a great way to start & finish your edging if it runs into a wall or fence etc. Our 3mm pegs give you a clean finish in this situation. 
   If using our joiners, these have a peg attached. As our product is so thick we have found pegs in between are not necessary for most applications. Simply hit the edging in at least 5mm into the soil to hold the edge, in some cases pegs may be required for complex shapes or curves.
4. After order support! 
   If you order edging from us and start your project and realise you didn't buy enough pegs or joiners, simply call or send us an email. 
   You pay for the additional joiners or pegs and we will pay for the freight - Free
   
   Still confused? Scribble your plan onto a piece of paper, take a photo - We LOVE pictures of your scribbles & your spaces (truly, we could be a little strange). 
   Hit the Contact-Us button and attach your picture and we will help you work out your requirements, we can email you a quote, all inclusive - You just need to make payment by clicking the link and a few days later a truck arrives with your pallet of edging, ready for installation!

Can this be flexed into curved garden beds?

Yes, with our straight joiners, you simply join the lengths together and shape your garden to your hearts content. 

What about around a tree? a circle?
Yes, circles are possible - In this situation we simply recommend the use of our pegs, secure an end and start curving whilst hammering pegs in to keep it in place. After you have created your radius, you can hit the edge into the ground and remove excess pegs.
For a circle under 1.5 meter diameter, please have a look at our pre-rolled tree rings Here

Do I need pegs if I buy your Joiners?
Yes, for the 2mm Edging we recommend a Peg placement for every length of 2mm edging placed. If creating curves, these pegs are invaluable to make the install process very easy. 
We have found over time, the edging settles into the soil and will hold - at this point you can remove the pegs to produce a clean seamless look.
All of the joiners also have a Peg built into the component, simply sleeve in the edging and mallet into the ground. 

How fast is this to install?
This system is unmatched in how long the installation takes. All cut edges are hidden behind the joiner, this means you can focus on cutting it - Not on how straight you are cutting it!
Sleeve the pieces into the joiners and with a rubber mallet you can hit the joiners (which come with a peg attached) into the ground. After this is done, because of the strength of our 3mm product you can simply go around and hit the top of the edging to sink the bottom edge in to help give it that rising from the earth look.

Steel Product & Safety

Please be mindful of safety when utilising steel edging in your garden. Particularly if you have young children - being children! 
Having a substantial amount above ground is how we have designed our edging to be utilised. This creates a visible barrier for people & animals navigating your garden. 
During the production of steel product, edges can be sharp. Whilst this sharp edge is diminished over-time (Rusting process), it is also possible to quickly run a 'flap-disc' grinding wheel across the edge to remove any sharp edges.

Running our premium range of edging HERE is the safest option as we offer these solutions in a 100mm, 118mm or 190mm high solution. These options also have supporting joiners, corners or pegs etc to suit, these products also make installation much simpler and due to their design, hide any sharp corners etc.
 
Whilst we know some people will bury these products as dividers, the product is designed to be used as edging above ground. We want to remind you about creating a safe environment for your loved ones. 

We are a small family business, we have families with young children - we care about safety, and want You & Your Family to be safe.
