There are two staking options available for FormBoss® Metal Garden Edging Systems.
A good general rule of thumb when choosing a stake is to make sure it is at least twice as tall as the garden edging profile.
Flat Stakes (Tapered) for edging profiles from 75mm to 185mm
The tapered stake works well to strengthen and anchor the majority of typical soil types and it’s simple and fast to install. We highly advise using three evenly spaced stake holes per length of steel (2.44 meters) for general applications.
Stake lengths should be determined based on the soil condition.
Stake lengths for SANDY & LOAM SOIL
Stake lengths for CLAY SOIL

Angled Stakes
For edging profiles from 230mm to 580mm
The minimum stake length should be double the edging profile height.
These stakes are specially manufactured to suit both higher strength jobs and retaining applications.
