All ShapeScaper lengths are 2.4m long
Our Australian-made SHAPESCAPER® Galvanised Steel Garden Edging is crafted from premium BlueScope® hot-dipped Galvanised steel, designed for long-lasting strength, clean lines, and low-maintenance durability in both residential and commercial landscapes. Supported by a 10-year structural guarantee, it provides peace of mind and enduring quality. When first installed, galvanised steel appears bright and spangled, developing a soft matte grey patina over time. This natural weathering effect helps the edging blend effortlessly into the garden, offering crisp separation of plants, pathways, and garden features while maintaining a neutral, balanced aesthetic.

How to select your edging:
- Select the profile height required for your installation. 1/3 is buried in the ground, so if you want 290mm out of the ground you will needed a 390mm length
- Decided on the design of your gardens. Straight runs recommend 4 stakes per length, curved runs 3 per length. When selecting stakes, double the height of your selected profile is recommended.
- All joiners, screws and rivets required are included in your order

Installation & Care
To ensure the best performance and protection, follow manufacturer installation recommendations.
- When cutting or screwing during installation, apply **cold galvanised spray paint** to all exposed metal surfaces to prevent corrosion
- If surface rust appears (e.g., from contact with mowers or trimmers), brush the area clean, dry thoroughly, and recoat with cold galvanised spray paint
- Occasional cleaning with mild detergent and water is recommended to maintain appearance
For maximum product longevity and warranty coverage, installations should be completed in line with these recommendations.
