Landscape Fabric & Edging

Q: What’s the best edging for curves?

Flexible composite edging like Benda Board or rolled steel edging works best for curves and organic designs.

Q: Does edging help keep mulch in place?

Absolutely. Edging maintains clean lines, prevents material migration, and reduces ongoing maintenance.

Looking to create clean bed lines, suppress weeds, or stabilize stone and gravel walkways? Landscape fabric and edging are essential tools that give your project a crisp, professional finish while helping it last longer in North Texas conditions. At Outdoor Warehouse Supply, we stock heavy-duty commercial-grade materials suited for everything from flower beds to high-traffic hardscape installs.

Installation Tips
For Fabric:

Always overlap fabric seams by 6–12 inches
Use landscape staples every 12–18 inches
Ensure fabric lies flat to avoid bunching under mulch or stone

For Edging:

Use stakes or nails every 18–24 inches (or as specified)
Pre-shape curves with flexible materials like steel or composite
Dig a narrow trench for flush installs

Outdoor Warehouse Supply offers landscape fabric and edging supplies trusted by Dallas contractors and homeowners alike. Whether you’re building beds, patios, or gravel paths — we’ve got the right gear to finish clean.

I ordered 9k pounds of outdoor stones for my backyard from outdoor warehouse last month. Not only I love the beautiful colorful stones in the backyard but the whole process of ordering and delivery was very smooth and efficient. I like enhancing my backyard and front yard with beautiful plants flowers and stones and will always call outdoor warehouse for any future needs.

This place is literally THE BEST in DFW. Because of their products, pricing - and their service (and that’s the X factor). They not only get you what you need, they are experts in coaching you thru the whole process - what will do well where and how much you’ll need. I’m a total rookie and they helped me all along the way. Delivery of rock was perfect too. Got 8 cubic yards black star tejas (that you can’t find in true black - everywhere else has grey), 2 cubic yards salt and pepper river rock, five 15 gallon agaves (that also no else carried in that large mature size) and some other plants / soil. Fan for life…

First off BIG THANK YOU to Jonathan!! Since I first arrived at O.W.S he was nothing but extremely helpful, courteous, and patient. I probably asked too many questions but he answered each one and with a smile. I decided to tackle my front yard myself and appreciated all the knowledge as well as advice he offered on how and what to do or not to do. The prices here are affordable and the selection is amazing. Aside from Jonathan, thank you to Jose, Adam and all the other guys outside that were great to talk to. YOU outside guys make a business great!

I really appreciate all the staff here. Over the past few years, Outdoor Earehouse Supply has been my go to place for our home hardscaping projects. We have built a retaining wall, lots of drainage work, and a stone patio using their supplies. They know me by name, are super patient, and allow me to ask a lot of questions while I have had kids on tow. The pricing is great too. I am thankful for the excellent and consistent service!
