Some Edge-It Ideas
Let-Downs
This process involves `letting down` or lowering the back half
of the border. We commonly use this for pathways or walkways where foot traffic
or mowers will be crossing over the curb. It is also used for allowing drainage
by downspouts or low lying areas. We can do this in both profiles as illustrated
below.

Back to back Let-Downs allow easy passage through the walkway.

A Let-Down allows easy passage with the mower to the area behind the border (to be covered with rocks) where the mower is stored.

Tee Intersections and Rectangle Borders
We commonly use rectangle borders for separating two mediums
(dirt and rock or mulch and rock). We can also "T" the rectangle border into the
back of Mowers Edge or Stamped Border as illustrated below.
