Edgetite Paver Spikes
The pitch: Edgetite spikes help solve the separation problem that can occur when installing paver edging with common spikes.

  • As an Edgetite spike is hammered into the compacted base the angled-tip deflects away from the installation while the head pushes the edge restraint tightly against the brick.
  • The angled final position of an installed Edgetite spike resists frost heave.
