Low 3-Inch Landscape Edging
The 3-inch low mould keeps the border closer to the ground while still creating a defined line between turf and bed.

Landscape Edging
Landscape Edging Services for Southern Indiana Properties
Grass crossing into mulch, mulch spilling into lawn, and soft borders that disappear after a season all create the same problem: the landscape loses its shape. Stryker Outdoor Solutions installs continuous concrete landscape edging for a cleaner boundary and lower-maintenance yard care.
The Border System
What Is Landscape Edging?
Landscape edging creates a physical line between lawn, mulch, soil, planting beds, and nearby hardscape. Our edging uses continuous concrete curbing rather than a loose row of separate pieces, so the edge is planned as one connected border around the property's landscape.
The project can use a 3-inch low mould or a 5-inch HD mould. The low mould suits a quieter edge; the HD mould is suggested for premium and natural-stone detail. Stainless-steel cable runs through the curb to help resist heaving and shifting.
- A continuous boundary between lawn and landscape beds
- A 3-inch low mould for a lower-profile edge
- A 5-inch HD mould when more profile is desired
- Reinforcing stainless-steel cable through the curb
- A practical way to define curved or straight bed lines
Border Choices
Landscape Edging Options Catalog
The right edging choice depends on how visible you want the border to be, how much detail the landscape calls for, and whether the project needs to match a future phase.
Available choices
5-Inch HD Landscape Edging
The 5-inch HD mould is suggested for premium and natural-stone detail where a taller profile helps the finish read clearly.

Natural-Looking Color
Color Options for Landscape Edging
Landscape edging should support the planting, mulch, home exterior, and hardscape instead of looking like a separate strip dropped into the yard. We use color variation to give the curb a more natural look.
Overall Color Direction
The first choice is the general color direction for the border. You'll review our current color samples and combinations during your estimate to find the best fit.
- Matching guidance: We compare colors with your home, landscape, and existing hardscape.
Color Variation for Depth
Variation helps the edge avoid a flat, uniform appearance. We use different techniques and color combinations to create a realistic natural look.

Style-Category Finish Direction
Premium / natural-stone and farmhouse brick categories create different visual directions for the same functional job: defining the landscape edge.

Where It Works
Landscape Edging Applications
Concrete landscape edging is useful wherever a property needs the lawn, bed, and border to meet on purpose.
Common uses
Where this service fits
Flower and Planting Beds
A continuous edge keeps the bed's outline visible and gives mulch or soil a firm stopping point. Curves can be shaped to follow an existing bed rather than forcing the landscape into a rigid rectangle.
Popular options: 3-inch low mould; color variation
Learn more: Concrete CurbingLawn-to-Mulch Transitions
The boundary between grass and mulch is one of the places where flexible edging can become difficult to maintain. Concrete edging creates a line that is easier to see while mowing and trimming.
Popular options: Low mould; straight or gently curved layout
Learn more: Concrete CurbingTree Rings and Curved Features
Landscape features with repeated curves need an edge that can follow their shape. We plan the layout, access, and length and recommend the profile that fits.
Popular options: Custom curve layout; low or HD mould

Concrete edging is the more permanent, design-led option of the three. It asks for a larger upfront investment and scheduled resealing, but it creates a continuous border instead of a loose or flexible edge.
The simple routine
Protect the finished work, keep the surrounding area clear, and address changes early.
Keep the Edge Looking Right
Landscape Edging Maintenance
The basic routine is limited: keep the edge visible, avoid burying it with landscape material, and plan for resealing every 2–3 years.
Reseal on a 2–3-Year Cycle
We recommend resealing concrete curbing every 2–3 years to protect the finish. We can take care of the cleaning and resealing for you.
- Recommended interval: every 2–3 years
Keep Soil and Mulch Below the Edge
Don't pile landscape material over the curb. Keeping the profile visible makes the border easier to maintain and helps you notice any change in position or finish.
Plan Future Sections With the Existing Color
If you add beds later, we can use your project's color combinations again. That makes it easy to extend your landscape plan with a matching border.
Review the Border After Landscape Changes
New grading, heavy equipment, drainage work, or bed changes can affect an edge. If the curb shifts or a connection needs attention, contact us and we'll take a look.
The Border-Building Difference
Why Stryker for Landscape Edging
Landscape edging looks simple from a distance. The difficult part is making the line follow the yard, connect cleanly, and stay visually consistent through the whole project.
A Curbing Specialist's Focus
Concrete curbing, decorative borders, and landscape edging are our focus, not an add-on. Our owner, Ian Johnson, brings 10+ years in the trade.
Reinforcement That Runs the Length
Stainless-steel cable runs through the curb to help resist heaving and shifting. That construction detail supports the purpose of the edge: holding a clean line between landscape areas.
Options That Match the Job
Homeowners can compare a 3-inch low mould with the 5-inch HD mould. The HD option is suggested for premium and natural-stone detail, while the low mould provides a lower-profile alternative.
Seasonal Planning With Phased Additions
Installations are available April through December. If your landscape plan is bigger than the first phase, we keep your color combinations so future additions match.
Common Questions
Landscape Edging FAQ
Why choose concrete landscape edging over plastic edging?
Concrete edging creates a continuous border with a defined profile, while plastic edging is flexible and may lift, bend, or become less visible as the landscape changes. Concrete isn't maintenance-free: we recommend resealing every 2–3 years, and we check your site for drainage and movement before installation.
Which mould height is right for a landscape bed?
The low mould is 3 inches tall, and the HD mould is 5 inches tall. The HD mould is suggested for premium and natural-stone detail. We'll help you choose a profile based on your bed shape, how visible you want the border, and the style you like.
Can landscape edging follow curves and corners?
Yes. We form the edging in place, so it can follow curved and straight layouts. Your estimate accounts for the number of corners, the total length, access, and how the new edge meets existing beds or hardscape.
How long does landscape edging installation take?
A project may take a few hours or one full day, depending on the length of the curb. A longer run, more corners, or difficult access can change the schedule, so we'll give you a timeline with your estimate.
Can we add more edging next year?
Yes. We can keep the color combinations used on your project, so later additions match. An extension to an existing curb is made by cutting at a control joint, drilling the old curb, and using fiberglass rebar to connect old and new sections.
When is landscape edging installed?
We install from April through December. Scheduling depends on the project, weather, access, and our current availability.
