Installation Guide
Prepare the site
– Establish a datum or reference point for levels and contours
– Measure and mark out the area, step back to visualize the full context of your design
– Layout your edging and stakes along the run to find the best location for joins and any required cuts
– We recommend the use of a sealing compound such as Crommelin Blackseal Heavy Duty bitumen paint on any edging below ground level
– Check for underground services or obstructions like roots
– Prepare a trench to a minimum depth of 70mm
– Auger 150mm diameter holes to a minimum depth of 270mm at a suitable spacing for the required number of stakes. A SHAPESCAPER stake driving tool may also be used where the ground density permits.
Cutting and shaping the edging
– Mark planned cuts and double-check measurements
– Cuts are easily made using an angle grinder with a thin stainless steel cutting disc
– 230mm edging can be formed into gentle curves with a radius down to 700mm onsite
– Tighter curves should be custom ordered and can be rolled down to a radius of 250m
– 90-degree corners are available as stock items
– External (lip on the inside SECE23020)
– Internal (lip on the outside SECI23020)
Installing and securing the edging using a SHAPESCAPER stake driving tool
– Select 3 or 4 stakes per length as needed (SS450R) Angled Stakes
– 3 stakes are suitable for most applications; 4 stakes may be required for long straight runs, or when installed in loose or sandy soil
– Fit a connector to each length using two hex heads below ground and rivets above ground, this can be done prior to putting any edging into the ground. (please note using rivets is optional for most 230mm edging applications)
– Use the lower holes in the edging to align with the lower holes on the stakes and lay the stakes pointing towards the prepared trench
– Use a string line to ensure the stakes are driven to the required depth and positioned perfectly along the length of the run
– Taking care to maintain the spacing use the stake driving tool to guide each stake down to the correct depth
– Position the edging over the top of the stakes and secure to the previous connector
– Use the lower holes on the edging to align with the lower holes on the stakes and fit the stakes using the supplied hex head self-tapping screws
– Use the existing holes in the back of the stakes to guide your drill through the edging so the supplied rivets can inserted along the front face of the edging and secure the stakes above ground level.
Installing and securing the edging using pre augured holes (in very hard and rocky soil)
– Attach 3 or 4 stakes per length as needed
– Use the lower holes in the edging to align with the lower holes on the stakes and fit the stakes using the supplied hex head self-tapping screws
– Use the existing holes in the back of the stakes to drill through the edging and use supplied rivets to fit the stakes above ground level; rivets should be inserted along the front face of the edging (please note using rivets is optional for most 230mm edging applications)
– Fit a connector to each length similarly, using two hex heads below ground and rivets above ground, this can be done prior to putting any edging into the ground.
– Lower the completed edging one length at a time into the prepared excavation and fit off the connectors as you work along the run
– Use a string line to ensure the edging is running to the required gradient and use a level to check that all the edging is plumb. Timber bracing can be used to temporarily secure the edging
– Once a run is completed and secured with bracing, fill the holes around the stakes with concrete and let set
Final adjustments and finishing touches
– Backfill and compress along the front of the edging then back fill the rear section
– To accelerate the protective “rust” patina you can wash down the face of the edging with a mild detergent and then apply a 10% white vinegar solution.
– The edging will start developing a patina in about two weeks and become fully weathered between 6 months and two years depending on exposure to moisture. The use of stronger acid or salt will permanently damage the protective properties of weathering steel
