What happens here
Install paver edge restraints around the perimeter of the main patio and around any distinct paver zones, such as the dining area 'rug' and the future lounging area shown in the video. These restraints prevent the pavers from shifting over time. Secure the edge restraints into the compacted base using spikes. Ensure that the top edge of the restraint will be below the finished height of the pavers to be hidden once installed.
Goal: Secure the perimeter of the patio and internal paver zones to prevent movement.
