Transform your landscaping installations with premium SHAPESCAPER® Stakes. Designed for durability and perfect compatibility, these Australian-made steel stakes by BlueScope® offer the ideal solution for securing your garden edging with precision and strength - essential components for professional metal garden edging installations.
Key Features:
- 100% Australian Made: Crafted with superior-quality BlueScope® Steel available in both REDCOR® and GALVABOND® finishes to match your edging selection - ensuring a cohesive look whether used with SHAPESCAPER steel garden edging or compatible FormBoss systems.
- Precision Engineering: All stakes feature precision pre-drilled holes that perfectly align with corresponding holes along the full length of all SHAPESCAPER® edging products - creating a seamless connection that gives metal garden edging its professional appearance.
- Flexible Installation: Choice of holes allow for either the recommended ×3 stakes per length or ×4 stakes per length for specific applications such as straight runs, light soils, or high-traffic areas - providing the adaptability needed for various steel garden edging installations.
- Multiple Installation Methods: Can be secured by screwing from the front through aligned holes, or using self-tapping screws in non-aligned positions from either direction - offering more installation options than many competing metal garden edging systems.
- Profile-Specific Options: Lower profile stakes (230mm, 300mm, 400mm) can be installed with a rubber mallet, while longer stakes (580mm, 780mm, 1180mm) may require a stake driving tool or pre-drilling in harder ground conditions - accommodating various heights of corten steel edging and galvanized garden borders.
- Safety Conscious Design: All fasteners should be positioned below soil level to prevent injury during garden maintenance, with above-ground connections using the supplied rivets - demonstrating SHAPESCAPER's commitment to both aesthetic finish and practical safety in all metal garden edging components.
