Challenge

The development of the Combe Haven Seaview Village holiday park in St Leonards-on-Sea involved the creation of numerous sweeping paths that dealt with changes in gradient, on a tight timescale.

Hard landscaping edge restraints were required for both tarmac and tar chipping paths.

Solution

Kinley's AluExcel landscape edging was specified because of its flexibility and ease of installation.

The owners, architects and contractors all admitted that they had made an exciting discovery when they began using AluExcel.

Architects, A & M ARCHITECTURAL PARTNERSHIP LLP, were delighted with the result and said, "The Aluexcel system exceeded our expectations on this prestigious project. We needed a flexible edging system to create the sinuous curves we were trying to achieve and the Aluexcel product provided us with exactly that. The product is a great discovery for us and we will continue to specify it on future projects.”

Outcome

Contractors, PRL Plant Hire, were similarly delighted and said, "We were very pleased with the Aluexcel aluminum edging system. The products were within budget and delivered on time. It was quick to install, great for forming to a radius and we were able to effectively create the design the architect was looking for. An excellent product and we look forward to using it again.”
