Corten steel stands as an extraordinary material choice for garden edging, offering unmatched aesthetic appeal, strength, durability, and practicality. Within six months, it naturally develops a water-tight patina that halts further rusting, growing more resilient over time. This protective layer not only fortifies the steel but significantly extends its lifespan, making it an effortless, maintenance-free marvel. Choose our garden edging for a solution that's as stunning as it is dependable.
Installation of this exquisite edging is delightfully easy and straightforward. No special tools are necessary—simply use a block of wood and a hammer to make the installation process effortlessly simple for anyone.
When is steel edging better than aluminium edging?
Both steel and aluminium edging provide exceptional durability and withstand harsh weather conditions, each offering distinctive advantages tailored to meet diverse landscaping needs.
Steel's unparalleled strength makes it the prime choice for areas susceptible to heavy garden machinery or vehicular traffic. Its robust nature also makes it perfect for retaining structures in raised borders, ensuring steadfast support and reliability.
Steel edging delivers unmatched versatility in color options, available in untreated, galvanized, Corten weathering steel, or powder-coated finishes in your chosen RAL color, allowing you to fully customize your landscape vision.
What's the difference between untreated steel and Corten steel?
Both untreated and Corten steel develop a striking orange-brown patina over time. However, Corten steel alloys expedite this process, enhancing its visual appeal and charm.
The patina not only augments aesthetic allure but provides practical benefits. Corten steel is highly favored by architects and landscapers for its swift patina development, seamlessly blending with organic and natural design concepts in both traditional and contemporary settings.
How do I prevent Corten steel from staining surrounding stone or concrete?
Corten steel's natural weathering can discolor water runoff, potentially staining lighter or porous surfaces. Fortunately, there are effective methods to mitigate this risk and preserve your landscape's pristine condition.
Pre-weathering the steel before installation minimizes contact with other materials by ensuring the majority of oxidation occurs in advance. Accelerate this transformation by applying specific chemicals to the steel's surface, preparing it for seamless integration.
Creating a gravel buffer between the steel and adjacent surfaces facilitates drainage, effectively preventing staining and preserving the surrounding area's pristine beauty.
How much maintenance does steel edging need?
While steel may be more prone to corrosion than aluminium, it requires minimal maintenance when crafted from high-grade materials, ensuring lasting durability and continued performance.
The natural oxidation layer on Corten steel typically offers ample protection under normal environmental conditions, preserving the underlying material's integrity and beauty.
Powder-coated steel is renowned for its high corrosion resistance. To ensure enduring longevity, take care to avoid damaging the powder coating during installation, providing an additional safeguard against corrosion.
Pin kerbing or pavers, set on a solid concrete base and haunched, will create a solid edge that can either blend with or complement the rest of the paving.
However, this method may require several site visits to lay the foundation, then lay and haunch the edging, and time between for the base and haunching to cure before the paving can be laid.
If aluminium or steel edging is used, the paving can be laid as soon as the edging is installed. Both products feature a narrow profile that makes them inconspicuous against paving and soft landscaping, and neither has the problem of grass die-back caused by concrete.
