Our self fit metal edging is available in 3mm or 6mm thicknesses. Our 3mm thick option is available in three heights, 75mm, 100mm and 150mm. This can be bent by hand to form your own corner to any angle. Our 6mm thick metal edging is also available in these heights plus 200mm and 300mm which are most frequently used to create raised beds and planters, soil retaining and commercial landscaping. Our 3mm thick edge is supplied in minimum 2m lengths and the 6mm option is supplied in 3m lengths. These longer lengths simplify and save time on installation.
Our standard and most popular edging is Mild steel, this will weather to brown over 6-12 months. For faster weathering (as little as 1 month) we offer Corten edging, or Galvanised edge for a permanent grey/silver finish.
Please enquire for pricing on our Corten and Galvanised garden edging.
As a general rule we recommend burying half of the edge in traffic areas such driveways and paths and a third when edging lawns and borders. When creating steel raised beds or terracing and need to make the most of the edge height we recommend setting the edge at least 3cm in the ground.
We advise against painting or treating the edge with anything, one of the advantages of bare steel is the fact it requires no maintenance, a coating is likely to need reapplying. Both our mild steel and Corten edging will age to brown and this natural weathered finish is the desired “honest” look. If ever the edge was scratched it will simply weather over again, in effect repairing itself.
There is more information on edge selection on the Steel Edging FAQs page and the Metal Edging Explained film above, or please get in touch and we will be happy to help.
One of the many advantages of steel is its natural flexibility and its ability to create flowing curves with little effort. Despite its thickness even our 6mm metal edging can create a complete circle with a diameter as small as 4 metres and the 3mm thick edging down to 2 metres. This path using our 6mm thick edging was achieved with minimal effort.
For the thickness of edge and specification our edging offers excellent value for money. See our price list.
We can provide corners to any angle internal or external to seamlessly attach to all our edge sizes.
Installed correctly our 6mm thick steel edging will withstand wayward wheels
with no need to haunch with concrete. This makes installation quick, simple and also allows lawns and plants to thrive right to the edge as their roots are not restricted by a concrete shelf
A majority of our competitors offer a maximum of 5mm thick. Ours is 6mm, its 1mm, buts its 20% more steel and strength, and you can feel the difference. When edging driveways, or creating raised beds this matters.
This is a big one for all of us here at Steelscapes. Whether going the extra mile to meet demands of trade accounts or guiding those new to the world of steel edging, we encourage you to engage with us to ensure you receive the most appropriate edging solution.
