I installed two boxes of the 8 inch 5 foot long edging about two weeks ago. The installation was fairly simple with an extra hand. The one obstacle we encountered was that the driveway and the sidewalk had a bit of a concrete lip under the soil and so we couldn’t press the edging straight down into the soil. if we wanted to go straight down into the soil, we had to move the edging about 4 to 5 inches away from the sidewalk, so there would be a gap between the garden bed and the sidewalk. I didn’t want that gap so we pushed it down as much as we could so that it’s actually resting against the concrete lip and we pressed in the soil so that it is fairly tight. It’s not ideal, but it was the best solution we could think of. I am a happy so far, and we will see how it holds out in the long run, considering it’s not directly wedged into the soil.
Customer Story
DIY Front Walk and Driveway Cor-Ten Border
Megan installed two boxes of Edge Right 8 inch Cor-Ten hammer-in edging to frame her front garden beds along the sidewalk and driveway. The install was straightforward with a helper, but a buried concrete lip under the pavement limited how deep the strips could be set. She positioned the edging tight to the concrete, compacted the soil, and is happy with the clean lines while monitoring long-term hold.
