Benefits of Metal / Corten Steel Garden Edging
Strong
FormBoss edging is available in a number of options to accommodate varying strength requirements, is designed to maintain its shape, and lasts for many years.
Safe
A garden is a play area for families and pets, therefore safety must be a top priority. FormBoss Metal Garden Edging has been designed with a rolled top lip profile to shield any sharp edges of connections and steaks.
Shapeable
When it comes to landscaping, garden beds, paths and lawns, you need an edging system that’s flexible and can be shaped to suit your landscape design, whether that’s straight lines, angles, curves or any combination thereof. FormBoss garden edging comes with an excellent ability to shape your lawn and create outdoor areas you’ll love.
Long Lasting
FormBoss metal garden edging uses BlueScope Australian steel, this meets all recognised industry standards and is chosen for its durability and resilience to the harsh WA climate. Steel edging does not rust, crack, split, or burn and is resistant to pests such as termites. FormBoss provides a 10-year guarantee for their steel edging system.
Value for Money
Other garden edging systems cannot match the durability and longevity of steel garden edging. This makes FormBoss extremely good value over time, free from maintenance costs or the need to replace it after several years due to corrosion and weather damage.
Easy to Install
Unlike some other garden edging systems, Formboss metal garden edging is extremely simple to install.
Versatile
The best solution for virtually all gardens and any ground project that involves a straight or curved lawn edge raised or ground-level garden beds. Steel edging allows you to create straight or curved footpaths and design an outdoor landscape with features that would be otherwise difficult to achieve.
There is a range of heights, gauges, and finishes available, you can even paint your steel edging if you wish. See the chart below.
Adds Value
Using steel edging to design, create and form a well-structured outdoor landscape will add value to your property. It goes without saying that improving the appearance of your home is an easy way of increasing its worth, especially when the introduction of a flexible edging system is so simple to install.
Landscape Edging
Landscape edging sets the lines a garden is built on. Long before the planting goes in and the mulch is spread, the edge decides where one part of the garden stops and the next begins. We supply steel edging for landscaping projects of every size, from a single curved bed at the front of a house through to continuous runs across a large site.
Steel edging holds those lines once they are set. It defines lawn against planted beds and keeps turf from creeping across. It runs alongside paths and driveways, holding gravel and mulch back from the surface. It forms terraces on sloping ground, shapes raised beds, and rings established trees. On sites with level changes, each level gets a firm, deliberate edge that stays where it was put.
Corten steel landscape edging brings colour as well as line. The weathered surface carries warm russet and amber tones that sit comfortably alongside native planting, natural stone, timber and rammed earth. As the surface settles, the colour evens out and the edging begins to read as part of the garden rather than something added to it. Under normal garden conditions, it handles years of use well.
Corten Steel Landscape Edging for Commercial Projects
We supply corten steel edging by the length, in quantities that suit larger builds as readily as domestic gardens. We send edging right across Western Australia, well beyond the Perth metropolitan area, and samples of each profile and finish are on display at our Subiaco showroom. One recent example is Wayfinder Winery in Margaret River.
Corten Steel Rings
Our metal garden edging is available as steel ring planters for diverse garden layouts. These planters blend versatility, durability, and curb appeal.
Ideal for a number of configurations and uses, such as decorative plants or herb gardens, they enhance garden structure and style.
Available in single, double, triple, or custom configurations to create a low-maintenance, and long-lasting focal point for your garden.
PLEASE NOTE!
While Corten steel offers many benefits, there are a few considerations:
Runoff Staining: As it weathers, Corten steel may produce rust runoff that can stain nearby surfaces such as concrete, tiles, or decking. This effect reduces over time but should be considered when choosing a location.
Initial Weathering Process: The patina takes time to develop, and during this period, the steel may appear uneven in colour before fully stabilising.
Despite these minor considerations, Corten steel remains a low-maintenance, long-lasting, and visually appealing choice for planters.
