Questions and Answers for Master Mark Terrace Board 5 in. x 40 ft. Black Landscape Lawn Edging with Stakes

A:  Jonnyk, There should be 10 stakes that come with the 40' terrace board edging. Please place every 4 feet for optimal performance of our terrace board. Please let me know if you have any more questions. Thank you. Melanie @Avon Plastics

A:  Good Morning Libby, Thank you for your question. A small tooth saw or hack saw will do the trick. A sharp pair of tin snips will do the job. Let me know if you have any further questions. Melanie Ebnet, Ecomm specialist, Avon Plastics

A:  I scored it with an Exacto type knife then I cut it with heavy duty scissors. 

A:  I cut mine with a box cutter! 

A:  Good Morning Carl, Thank you for your question. I would recommend using a Terrace Board Stake to hold the ends together. Any other means of attaching the ends may compromise the integrity of the product. Here is the link for the stake at Home Depot, https://www.homedepot.com/p/Master-Mark-Terrace-Board-Stakes-in-Black-20-Pack-99402/203504235 Let me know if this helps. Have a great day!

A:  yes real easy

A:  Probably too tough to staple together. If you really want to you can use a nut and bolt or just press the sides together and use the stakes to keep them in place.

A:  The plastic although bendable is too thick for staple. You could super glue it together. Nut bolt will not look good, but it is a personal preference.

A:  It would be too tough for an average stapler. A bolt might be necessary.

A:  If the staple is long enough that you can bend the ends then it may hold. I think that a small nut/bolt would be better as you have suggested.

A:  Can't say as I haven't put it to that test, but I've had it in place multiple locations on the property for 2 years and no visible degradation is present.

A:  It would not hold up to a gas powered, but it does to my rechargeable black and decker one..

A:  It should be dug in with a straight shovel to make the trench. Then when in place, use a rubber mallet to hammer the anchors into the ground.

A:  MFG does have longer stakes available. But when mine get loose, I just move them a few inches away, and hammer them back into solid ground.

A:  Yes it can be cut, but it's better if you adjust the grade to fit the full size if the edging.

A:  Yes

A:  I tried for a year to get this stuff to line up straight, but it never would, the line looked terrible, even with double t he number of support stakes, ended up throwing it away

A:  Yes to both questions

A:  Hello Debi, Would you be able to clarify your question. What exactly are you asking?
