FAQs

How many pins do I need?

Are these pins reusable?

Yes, the pins can be removed and reused, though they may bend slightly during removal.

What is the best way to remove the pins?

Use pliers or a similar tool to pull the pins straight out of the ground.

How long do these pins last?

The galvanised steel construction ensures these pins have a long lifespan, resistant to rust and weathering, providing durability for many years.

Can I use these pins with heavy-duty landscape fabric?

Troubleshooting

Pre-drill holes in compacted or rocky soil, or use a rubber mallet to gently tap the pins in.
