Non-Permeable
Landscape
If the project requires curved or straight borders the accessory pavers can
eliminate much of the cutting. These include legless full pavers and wedge
pavers.
• Draw the shape of the desired border onto the pavers that will need to be
cut. Laying the accessory pavers on top of the other pavers and tracing
the interior edge is the easiest. A string line may also be used.
• Cut the pavers on the line in place using a jigsaw (do not cut through the
grid), or using a miter saw.
• Place the legless full and/or wedge pavers on top of installation grids
to create the border. To calculate the number of full and wedge pavers
needed for a given radius, visit http://www.azek.com/technical-center/

• Use a recommended adhesive between the accessory pavers and the grid
(see page 2).

IMPORTANT:
When installed up against asphalt, a 4" wide ribbon of concrete the depth of the base material
is recommended. If abutted directly to asphalt, expansion of the AZEK Paver system may
push the asphalt and cause it to buckle.

INSTALL EDGING
Edge Restraints:
AZEK Pavers require the use of an edge restraint around the perimeter.
Edge restraints help keep the installation from moving, and perimeter
pavers from tipping off the grid. The edging is generally staked down
using 10 inch stakes, one every 6 to 12 inches. Plastic, aluminum, or
concrete edging will work.
Edge restraints can be installed next to, or on top of, AZEK Installation
Grids. For areas that will eventually be bordered by sod, or that have a
curved perimeter, some installers may prefer to install edging over the
top of the installation grids. If this is done, drill holes in the grid where the
stakes will go.
