Mowing area
The usable lawn after beds, pavement, structures and water are excluded.
Independent robot mower planning and installation
A robot mower should fit your whole yard.
Yard Method evaluates the property first, then plans the system, installation and handoff. We look beyond acreage to the details that determine whether robot mowing works day after day.
- Property first
- The yard shapes the plan
- Dealer-backed hardware
- Clear product support
- Professional handoff
- Installed, tested and taught
From property review to a working system.
Yard Method focuses on the decisions and fieldwork that sit between choosing a mower and living with it successfully.
- 01
Understand the whole yard
Review area, grade, tree cover, passages, charging options, routes and safety.
- 02
Confirm the system fit
Match the property with a complete mower system and identify what needs an on-site check.
- 03
Purchase through the dealer
The authorized dealer supplies the mower and remains the seller of record for the hardware.
- 04
Install and commission
Yard Method handles placement, mapping, setup, testing, training and a documented handoff.
The same mower can be right for one yard and wrong for another.
Explore three common situations to see how access, navigation and safety change the recommendation.
Promising candidate
This property has a practical route between zones, enough capacity headroom, and a workable charging location. A final site check should confirm navigation near the rear tree line and the narrow gate.
What supports the decision
- Estimated mowing area of 0.68 acre
- Maximum measured route grade of 16 degrees
- Two mowing zones joined by a 42-inch gate
- Outdoor GFCI outlet near a clear charging location
What happens next
- Confirm navigation performance near the rear tree line
- Verify gate clearance with the complete mower system
Acreage is only the beginning.
Six property conditions shape whether a system can work reliably.
Grade and ground
The steepest real route, plus wet, soft, uneven or rutted areas.
Navigation
Tree cover, buildings and dead zones that can interrupt positioning or connectivity.
Access
Gates, narrow passages, crossings and the route between every lawn zone.
Power
A practical charging location with suitable clearance, drainage and power.
Safety
Pools, drops, public paths, pets and other conditions that require dependable exclusion.
Professional installation from $899*
More than dropping off a mower.
