My suggestion is to contact your local Home Depot to see if any special pricing or bundles are available for this product.
The best way I found is to cut it with a hacksaw. If you want to bend it into shapes you just cut through the top rolled thicker part where you want to bend and it will bend easily. Be sure to file the edges after cutting so no one cuts themselves.
A standard hack saw, with a good, sharp metal cutting blade is the best option. The metal is fairly soft and thin enough that it should not take too much effort to get through it. It will be easiest to cut through the thickness of the edging rather than through the height of the edging. Any sort of miter box is helpful, especially when starting, that keeps the saw from walking around on the steel. Do not forget proper eye protection and gloves, the metal can get hot to the touch when sawing through!
The product is high quality and easy to install with a great finished project. I feel the price is too high, nearly $20 per 8 ft, makes the cost of a project very expensive.
It's double the thickness on the top edge. That edge needs to be cut through to bend it into a corner.
Yes, the 820RT does have a rolled top.
You overlap the ends and pound a pin down over them into the ground.
With this particular edging product the pieces do not connect together in the traditional sense; they are simply overlapped about 8" to 10". Then a separately sold wire pin (Home Depot SKU# 419959) is used to secure them together.
Separate
If I remember I had to buy the stakes separately.
No the stakes don't come with. They are sold separately. The stakes that you need look like hair pin. I bought them at the store and they are located by the edging.
It is 20 gauge, galvanized steel.
The spec says it is 0.039 which is just over 1/32 of an inch. I thought the thickness was just right. Stiff enough to hold it shape but also able to be shaped.
depending on curvature every 36 " more curvature 24"
I usually go with 4 pins per stick. Two at the joints and two in the middle.
I went every two feet.
Because this was used to make a gravel walkway, I used a stake at every 2 feet.
You need a total of 4 stakes per 8' section. While there are 6 stake pockets in each piece, once you overlap the ends you will use 1 stake through two pockets that are placed one above the other.
