    What do I need besides the staples?

    You'll need a rubber mallet (a 16 ounce mallet works great) and standard 2x lumber (2x2, 2x3, 2x4, 2x6) - easily found at your local home improvement and hardware stores.

    Is lumber included?

    No. 2xEDGE ships only the steel staples. You'll need to purchase standard 2x lumber (up to 2x6) separately.

    2x lumber is readily available at your local hardware and home improvement stores. You can use any wood variety, composite or recycled plastic lumber.

    Which lumber sizes work?

    Standard dimensional 2x lumber work with 2xEDGE including 2x2, 2x3, 2x4, and 2x6.

    Will I need to cut my lumber?

    2x lumber comes in standard lengths: 4-foot, 6-foot, 8-foot, 10-foot, and 12-foot. If those lengths work for your project then there's no need to cut your lumber.

    If you require different lengths, you can make your own cuts with a hand saw or power saw, or ask the service desk at your purchase location if they can help. Home improvement, hardware stores, and lumber yards typically will cut for no or a small fee.

    Can I use pressure-treated lumber?

    Yes. You can use pressure treated lumber as well as untreated lumber, cedar, redwood, composite, recycled plastic - whatever works for you. As long as it's 2x lumber up to 2x6, you'll be fine.

    Will these work in hard soil?

    Yes. 2xEDGE Staples work in most soils but dry or highly compacted soil (dry clay, caliche, desert hardpack) presents unique challenges. Some customers report success by watering the installation area first to loosen things up.

    We have installation tips available for challenging soil conditions. Read our guide.

    Can I remove the border later?

    Yes. The staples let you create edging that's easy to reposition & re-use. Just pull up your lumber & move it. Since the 2xEDGE method requires no digging you won't leave trenches all over your yard.

    And because the staples require no drilling through the wood for installation, your lumber stays intact. This means it will be viable, and re-usable, longer.

    Which finish should I choose?

    The staples are made in the USA from heavy-duty 16-gauge steel for long-lasting performance in all weather conditions.

    Durable powder-coated staples resist corrosion and are UV rated. Options include Satin Black (best seller), Forest Green, Mint Green, Robins Egg Blue, Rose Pink, Picket Fence White, and Satin Silver.

    Our original uncoated Rustic Steel Staple develops a natural rust patina over time, blending beautifully with garden and landscape surroundings.

    What is your return policy?

    We offer 30 day no-hassle returns and we cover the shipping cost of returns.

    Is shipping really free?

    Yes. We cover the cost of shipping anywhere in the USA. And that includes return shipping.

    Is 2xEDGE sold in brick & mortar stores?

    Currently 2xEDGE staples are only available to purchase online through our store at 2xedge.com.
