Give a garden bed or path a clean edge with Corten steel cut to suit your layout. Tell us where it goes, how much steel you want to see above ground and where the run changes direction.

Corten steel edging for lawns, paths and garden beds

• Lawn borders. Separate grass from mulch or planting. If you want to mow close to the border, show us the lawn level and tell us how you normally trim the edge.
• Gravel paths. Give loose gravel a defined edge. Mark the finished gravel level and tell us what meets it on the other side, especially at gates and paved entrances.
• Planting beds. Outline a straight bed or follow a curve around established plants. Include the finished mulch or soil level so we can talk through how much steel you’ll see.

What we can make

• Straight runs. Send the length of each side so we can work out a practical layout and where the joins could sit.
• Corners and changes in height. Mark any right-angle turns, steps or slope on your sketch. A photo from the side helps show where the levels change.
• A curved border. Show us the curve you’re after. We can discuss whether a single curved section or shorter sections would suit the shape.

Mark out the edge before you measure

Draw the run as if you’re looking down from above. Mark the ends, corners, any gates or paths it meets, and the approximate length of each stretch. For curves, a photo with a tape measure or marked points gives us something to work from.

Tell us the height you want showing above the lawn or path and what’s on either side of the edge. Mention pale paving or concrete so we can talk through where runoff from new Corten might go.

How to measure a curve

Lay a garden hose or flexible rope along the line you want the edging to follow. Mark the start and finish, then measure along the hose or rope to get the length of the curve. If it’s a tight bend, send a photo from above with a tape measure across the bend for scale.

How much edging should show above ground?

For a subtle lawn border, start with a low visible edge. If you want to contain gravel or mulch, show us where the finished levels will sit on both sides. Measure from the finished surface to where you want the top of the steel. We can work through the overall height and fixing details from there.
