FormBoss edging gives you three key decisions: profile height, steel finish and gauge (thickness). For subtle separation between lawn and mulch, a 75 mm or 100 mm profile works well. If you’re retaining gravel, creating raised beds or defining large planters, go with 230 mm or 290 mm profiles—or up to 580 mm for terracing.

Finish matters. Galvanised steel gives a clean grey finish and suits coastal or high-corrosion areas. REDCOR® (weathering steel) develops a rust-patina look and suits feature gardens. ZAM® has a zinc-aluminium-magnesium coating and excels in durable, high-demand conditions.

Gauge determines durability. Thicker steel (2.0 mm and 2.5 mm) is best where there’s traffic or heavy retaining work. FormBoss includes pre-drilled joiners and a rolled top lip for safety and simplicity. Installation is straightforward: stake length should be roughly twice the profile height to hold the edging securely.

Matching these decisions to your site conditions gives you a clean, durable edge that lasts—avoiding maintenance hassles and keeping your outdoor areas looking sharp.
