Statement edging can completely transform a garden’s look, whether it’s softening harsh edges, separating different elements or simply adding a new feature to your garden. It can be challenging to figure out the best way to integrate edging within your garden seamlessly without overwhelming your space with too many elements, but we’re here to help you rise to that challenge. 

 

What is statement edging?

 

Statement edging refers to the use of garden edging materials that create their own feature. In its simplest definition, it’s garden edging that doesn’t just accentuate your garden, but stands out. A great example of this is when it is used to create raised beds. Not only does this define the borders of your flower beds, but it also makes them stand out and adds another element of interest.

Why steel edging is better than alternative materials

 

When we discuss garden edging, we often refer to steel, but what makes steel edging superior to other materials? Although most forms of edging will define the borders of your land, steel offers a higher quality finish. Its strength and durability ensure that it can withstand heavy foot traffic and the impact of lawn equipment, while still maintaining its shape and integrity. 

Steel edging also creates a sleek and modern look, creating crisp lines and enhancing the natural look of your space. Although it is strong and long-lasting, this doesn’t mean it can’t fit the curves of your landscape. Steel edging can be easily moulded and manipulated to fit your space, making it a straightforward task to implement in your garden.

How statement edging can be implemented in your space

 

Design can often be the most challenging part of upgrading your garden, but with steel edging, it becomes easy. As mentioned before, steel offers a level of flexibility that other materials can not. Its versatile nature means it will work with your space, allowing you to reach a higher level of customisation. Whether you’re using it to define pathways or create raised plant beds, steel edging grants you the freedom and creativity to make your garden your own. 

Ease of installation

 

Sometimes, installation can be tricky, but at Legacy Edging, we design our edging for ease of installation. The robust lengths with simple connections allow you to easily install a sturdy edging system that is built to last. Our edging is secured using steel pins, measuring 400mm long and 16mm in diameter. These pins hold the edging in place and are also used to join together the different lengths using our unique boss and flange system. Our easy-to-follow installation guide makes the process as easy as possible.

Get started on transforming your garden

 

Steel edging can create the difference between a basic garden and a sleek, modern-looking space. Its versatility is unmatched by other edging materials, as well as its durability and strength. Garden design is never simple, but garden edging can help to simplify the process and map out your space.
