Mower-Edge Profiles
The mower wheel rides the edge. The string trimmer stays in the shed.
Standard bed-edging curbing defines a boundary. Mower-edge profiles eliminate a task. The LP mow-edge profile is 8–10 inches wide and 2–3 inches tall — sized so a standard residential mower wheel rides along the top while the blade passes clean to the turf edge in the same pass.
We ask what mower you run before we finalize the profile width. Walk-behind, zero-turn, or riding — the profile is sized to your actual equipment, not a generic standard. The goal is a single mowing pass with zero follow-up weed-eating.
One installation covers your full turf boundary — driveways, bed edges, fence lines, walkways — in straight or curved runs, any color or texture, designed as a coordinated system and installed in a single mobilization.
Four reasons mow strips pay back fast.
Mower Wheel Rides the Top
The LP mower-edge profile is 8–10 inches wide and 2–3 inches tall — wide enough for a standard mower wheel to run along the top edge. The blade passes clean to the border in one pass. No follow-up weed-eating, ever.
Eliminates the Most-Hated Yard Task
String trimming the edge of every bed, walkway, fence line, and driveway is the single most time-consuming lawn maintenance task for North Idaho homeowners. Mower-edge profiles eliminate it categorically.
Straight or Curved Runs
The extrusion machine produces dead-straight runs for driveways and fence lines, and smooth curves for bed edges — all in the same profile. One installation covers your entire turf boundary.
Integrates With Any Surface
Mow-edge profiles work alongside turf, gravel, mulch, bark, decomposed granite, or hardscape — any surface where you need a clean, maintainable boundary.
Six applications across every turf boundary in your yard.
A full-yard mow strip system addresses every trim-edge at once. We design the complete layout during your estimate — profile widths, heights, curves, and any grade transitions — and install everything in a single visit with one per-linear-foot price.
Driveway Mow Strip
Wide profile running the full length of turf-to-driveway transitions. The mower rides the edge, the string trimmer stays in the shed. One of the highest-ROI installations we do.
Fence Line Borders
Full-run mow strip along fence lines and property boundaries eliminates the grass strip that grows up through and alongside fencing — the most tedious trimming task in a standard yard.
Bed-to-Turf Transition
Lower profile version for planting bed edges where you want a clean turf-to-mulch boundary the mower can edge in one pass without scalping the bed.
Walkway Borders
Mow strip alongside concrete or paver walkways creates a clean trim-free edge on both sides of every walking path in your yard.
Slope & Grade Transitions
Mow-edge profiles follow grade changes without interruption, maintaining the wide riding surface even on sloped terrain where string trimming is especially hazardous.
Full-Yard Mow Strip Systems
Comprehensive mow strip layout for the entire property — driveways, beds, fence lines, walkways — designed and installed in a single mobilization with a written per-linear-foot estimate.
Everything you need to know
about mower-edge concrete curbing.
What is mower-edge curbing?
Mower-edge curbing is wide, low-profile concrete border (8-10 inches wide, 2-3 inches tall) designed so mower wheels ride along the top surface. Eliminates string trimming by allowing mower blades to cut clean to the edge in one pass.
Does mower-edge curbing eliminate all trimming?
Nearly all trimming for covered areas. Mower wheel rides the surface, blade cuts to the edge. No follow-up weed-eating needed if profile is correctly sized for your mower. LP confirms equipment specs before installation.
How wide should mower-edge curbing be?
Depends on mower wheel width. Walk-behind mowers: 4-6 inches. Zero-turn/riding mowers: 6-10 inches. LP standard is 8 inches wide, accommodating most residential equipment. We confirm your mower specs before finalizing width.
Cost of mower-edge concrete curbing?
Mower-edge profiles cost $11-18 per linear foot installed in North Idaho. 15-25% more than standard curbing due to wider profile and more concrete. Fastest ROI of any curbing type - saves 15-25 hours of trimming per season.
Can mower strips follow curves?
Yes — extrusion machines produce smooth curves or dead-straight runs. Profile maintains consistent width and riding surface throughout curves. LP stakes full layout before installation to ensure proper radius and flow.
LP mower-edge curbing warranty?

Why mow strips save time
in North Idaho yards.
North Idaho's long growing season — typically May through October — means yards need mowing and trimming every 7–14 days during peak season. For a property with 300–400 linear feet of trimming edge (driveways, beds, fences, walkways), that's 30–45 minutes of weed-eating per mowing cycle, every single week. Over a full season, that's 15–25 hours of the most tedious, noise-intensive yard work a homeowner faces.
A properly designed mow strip system eliminates that task categorically and permanently. LP installs mow strips with the actual mower wheel width in mind — we ask what equipment you use before we finalize the profile width. The result is a border your mower rides on the first pass, leaving nothing for a string trimmer to catch. Most homeowners recoup the installation cost within two full growing seasons in saved time and trimmer line.
