ACO BorderGuard

1. What is ACO BorderGuard used for?
ACO BorderGuard is a durable lawn and garden edging system designed to create clean, defined edges between grass, flower beds, paths, and other landscaping features. It helps maintain shape and prevent spreading or overgrowth.

2. What is it made from?
ACO BorderGuard is made from recycled polypropylene, making it lightweight yet strong, weather-resistant, and environmentally friendly. It’s designed to be long-lasting even in outdoor conditions.

3. Is it suitable for curved and straight edges?
Yes. The flexible design allows it to be shaped easily around curves or used in straight lines, offering versatility for all types of garden layouts.

4. Can it be used with gravel, turf, or bark?
Absolutely. ACO BorderGuard is compatible with a range of surface materials including grass, decorative aggregates, bark, and paving, helping to create neat divisions between different zones.

5. How is it installed?
The edging is installed by securing it into the ground using provided fixing pins or stakes. It can be placed flush with the ground or slightly raised depending on the finish you want.

6. Does it require any special tools to install?
No specialist tools are needed. A rubber mallet or garden hammer is usually enough to drive the pins into the soil. For harder ground, a spade or hand trowel may help to prepare the edge.

7. How long does it last?
ACO BorderGuard is designed for long-term use outdoors. It’s UV-resistant, rot-proof, and doesn’t crack or become brittle with seasonal weather changes, offering reliable performance for many years.

8. Can it be cut to size?
Yes. The edging can be trimmed to length using a fine-toothed saw or heavy-duty garden scissors, allowing you to customise it for tight spaces or unique shapes.

9. Does it prevent grass from spreading?
Yes. When installed correctly, ACO BorderGuard acts as an effective physical barrier, reducing the spread of grass into beds, paths, or gravel areas.

10. Is it visible once installed?
It can be either visible or hidden, depending on installation preference. It’s often installed flush to the ground for a nearly invisible finish, or left slightly raised for a defined border look.
