Premium metal driveway edging in 4 easy steps

Mark, cut, lay, connect. Get ready to redefine your landscape in just 4 simple steps.

  1. Set out – Mark out the area you wish to install the metal edging. Use a spray marker and then dig a 100mm deep trench.
  2. Cut – Simply cut the edging using an angle grinder or hacksaw to achieve your desired length. You can easily achieve corners by securing the material to a workbench and bending it 90 degrees.
  3. Lay - Place the Flax Fixing Stakes on the side of the edging that people are less likely to see. Fix the stakes through the loops in the back of the edging, without fully fixing down.
  4. Connect – Join the edging and stake down. Once fully satisfied, simply fix the stakes down below the top of the edge.

Durability

Metal driveway edging is more resistant to damage than concrete kerbing and timber. It withstands harm from machinery, impact, rot, and frost.

Aluminium and galvanised steel also offer excellent corrosion resistance and will be maintenance-free for decades.

Compatibility

At Kinley, we have edging products for every type of driveway surface. This includes hot-rolled asphalt, tarmacadam, resin-bound gravel, rolled aggregates, poured or precast concrete, block paving, and cobblestones.

Driveway Edging Installation

Metal driveway edging installs 4-5 times faster than concrete kerbing. It does not need a stable concrete base or haunching. This means you can start the next step in the installation right away.

Once you have installed the edging, metal stakes securely hold it in place and it is ready for backfilling and surfacing right away.

It is also considerably lighter than concrete. This means smaller vehicles can deliver it to the site, and workers can easily move it around the site as needed. One person can easily manage manual handling and laying.

Steel and aluminium are the best materials for edging resin-bound driveways. They are less noticeable than concrete curbs. These materials let you place different colours next to each other with a nearly invisible border.

Steel Landscape Edging

Urban

Perfect for
  • Imprinted and plain concrete
  • Tarmac and hot-lay surfaces
  • Resin bound and loose gravels
  • Soft landscapes
  • Blocks and pavers

Urban

This steel edging is the perfect product for special driveways, as it offers a range of bespoke options. For a start, it is available in several finishes –galvanised or weathering steel (CorTen, or our more cost-effective alternative), or powder coated to any RAL colour.

Weathering steel is a particularly popular option due to the natural patina of oxidisation that forms on its surface over time. A natural barrier to corrosion, this also helps the product blend in with the earthy colours of mulch, soil and plants.

Urban can also be manufactured to bespoke heights and thicknesses and pre-formed during manufacture to create bespoke shapes for great visual effect or to accommodate landscaping and other features.
