Abstract
The edges of a synthetic turf material are secured by forming a slot in the base structure that supports the synthetic turf material and thereafter inserting the edge of the turf material to be secured into the slot with an elongated retainer strip being inserted into the slot to secure the turf in place. The elongated retainer strip is sized to frictionally engage one side of the elongated slot and the synthetic turf edge to urge it into frictional contact with the other side of the elongated slot.
