Yes, Straightcurve edging and raised garden beds can be installed in almost any soil type, including heavy clay, sandy, rocky, or loose soil.
Depending on the specific ground conditions you encounter during installation, a few slight adjustments to the standard fixing method will ensure a secure fit:
• Soft or Sandy Soil: Standard fixing pegs may not hold securely in loose earth. Use longer pegs or anchor posts, or drive pegs in at opposing angles (cross-pegging) to create additional resistance against movement.
• Hard, Compact, or Rocky Soil: Pre-drilled pilot holes along the base edge of the panels allow you to place the stainless steel pegs at intervals. Pegs can be moved easily where rocks and stones may prevent full penetration of the substrate.
• Heavy Clay Soil: Clay expands and contracts significantly between wet and dry seasons. Ensure joints are properly locked and anchored with adequate ground stakes so soil movement doesn’t displace the edging alignment over time.
