CORE EDGE
Flexible steel edging for lawns, borders, paths and hard-landscape interfaces.
- Material
- British-made mild steel
- Thickness
- 1.6 mm
- Face heights
- 65, 100 and 150 mm
Integrated ground spikes secure the steel profile while the dual-lock connection joins adjacent sections into a continuous line. The surrounding ground and finishes provide the final support.
Choose standard CORE EDGE for versatile, ground-spiked steel edging. Move to CORE EDGE HD where the profile or format needs to be more substantial, or to CORE PRO EDGE where aluminium is preferred.

Check the interfaces.
CORE EDGE is not a vehicle barrier or structural retaining product.
Exposed height, tight curves, soft ground and heavy compaction may require additional support.
The current finish, cut-end treatment and installation guidance must be followed.

Straight answers
CORE EDGE questions.
What is the difference between CORE EDGE and CORE EDGE HD?
Both are flexible steel edging systems. CORE EDGE is the versatile standard route, while CORE EDGE HD uses a more substantial profile and includes a long-length option for demanding installations.
Can CORE EDGE form straight lines and curves?
Yes. The connected lengths can form straight runs, sweeping curves and prepared corners. Tight geometry and exposed conditions may need additional support.
Which finish should I choose?
Choose around the design intent, exposure, adjoining materials and maintenance expectations. Confirm the current finish range and treatment of any cut ends before ordering.
