All SHAPESCAPER stakes and connectors feature precision pre-drilled holes that align with corresponding holes pre-drilled along the full length of all SHAPESCAPER edging.

A choice of holes along each length for either the recommended x3 stakes per length or x4 stakes per length for specific applications, such as long straight runs of edging, or when installing in light soils or heavy traffic areas.

Stakes are installed by matching up the corresponding holes in the edging and then secured by screwing in from the front. Alternate installation involves positioning the supplied self-tapping screws into either of the pre-drilled holes when not aligned. They can then be screwed together either from the back stake hole into the edging or from the edging hole into the stake. This will involve applying a little more pressure and a lower speed than usual while the self-tapping screw penetrates the second layer of steel. The lower profile stakes 230mm, 300mm, 400mm can be hammered into place using a rubber mallet. For even better results use a  hammer. Care should be taken not to damage the top of the stake which may prevent the stake fitting correctly under the edging lip. If a mash hammer is used a block of wood or similar should be used to protect the top of the stake. to the lower profile stakes. In firm ground our stake driving tool can be used. In rocky or hard ground and especially with the longer and 1180mm stakes a 100mm-150mm diameter hole should be augered then back filled with cement. SHAPESCAPER stakes are Manufactured in Australia with BlueScope Steel.
