Depending on what you’re trying to achieve, there are a range of staking options available for SHAPESCAPER® Steel Garden Edging Systems. The general rule of thumb for selecting the right stake is making sure the stake is more than twice the profile height as a minimum.

Type of Stakes:

Ribbed Stakes are available in  230mm, 300mm and 400mm. These are ideal for edging profiles 75mm - 185mm high, and works great at strengthening and anchoring most standard applications.

Heavy Duty L Profile stakes are available in 450mm, 580mm, 780mm and 1180mm. These stakes are L shaped (angled) and provide much greater strength to the edging for larger profiles. Work great at strengthening and anchoring commercial and heavy duty applications.

For general applications we strongly recommend 3 stakes spaced out evenly per length of steel (2.4m). This works out to be every 810mm. Generally you’ll just place one in the center and one at each end about 400mm from your connection. When installing straight length 4 stakes per length is recommended. All stakes are predrilled for easy installation.

All stakes are sold individually
