ABSTRACT:
An elongated holding device for holding paving blocks in place. The device has a pair of longitudinally spaced ends, an elongated vertical plate having a front paving block contacting face to define a border for a paved area, and a rear surface. The device also includes a plurality of discrete, elongated footing elements which are attached to a lower portion of the rear surface of the plate. The footing elements are spaced apart longitudinally of the plate and extend rearwardly therefrom. A first connector structure which includes an elongated, longitudinally extending tab is located at one end of the device. The footing elements each including a respective second connector structure in the form of a tab receiving opening. Each of the tab receiving openings is configured to receive and mate with the tab of the first connector element to thereby form a secure connection therebetween. The presence of a connector structure at each footing element increases the overall ability of the device to be adapted to fit the edging requirements and characteristics of paving areas of various sizes and shapes.
