Benefits of a Metal Garden Edging System
Metal Garden Edging System
Unlike other edging systems that are prone to corrosion, the steel used in FormBoss is a high quality, durable metal that will not rust and will stand up well to our harsh WA climate. This ensures a long-term and cost effective landscape solution that will not require frequent maintenance or replacement over time.
In after realizing that I needed a simple system for my DIY project , the design of the product is very user friendly. A rolled top lip profile is used to shield any sharp edges of the connections and stakes, which makes them safer to touch and use than other edging products on the market. This is especially important for families with children and pets.
Another huge benefit of a metal landscape edging system is that it is very easy to install. It can be simply hammered down into the ground and does not require any concrete or cement mixes to do so. It can also be easily pulled up and reshaped to suit the new shape of your flower beds or landscape areas.

Metal edging is also very robust and will not be damaged by mowers or other lawn equipment such as weed eaters. If it is buried deep enough (about half an inch above the soil), it will prevent grass roots from creeping underneath it. Most kits of metal edging include a few stakes to drive into the ground to further stabilize it.
In general, all types of landscape edging are a great way to keep your plants and materials in place, while preventing them from becoming overgrown or encroaching on neighboring landscaping elements such as grass and weeds. With a range of heights, gauges and finishes available, the possibilities are endless when it comes to designing your own outdoor spaces.
