What happens here

With the paver edging positioned, the next crucial step is to securely anchor it to the ground. The video demonstrates the use of a powerful hammer drill (specifically an SDS rotary hammer) fitted with a specialized bit. This tool is used to efficiently drive long, heavy-duty spikes through the pre-formed holes in the paver edging and deep into the compacted sub-base. Each spike is driven until its head is flush with the top of the edging, creating a strong, permanent anchor that prevents the paver system from shifting or spreading laterally.

Goal: Permanently fasten the paver edging to the ground for maximum stability.
