A system for providing a predetermined minimum spacing between a sprinkler head (20) and a sidewalk, curb or the like when installing a sprinkler head (20) in a lawn or other landscaped area. The system includes a spacer or guide (10) which can be attached to the sprinkler head (20) at the time of installation, The spacer includes an inner portion and an outer portion which is intended to be positioned adjacent to (or in close proximity to) the edge of a sidewalk or curb. The width of the spacer determines a minimum distance of spacing between the sprinkler head and the sidewalk or curb. The spacer (10) may include a vertical tab (18) to assure that the spacer (10) is sufficiently far below the ground surface that it will not be contacted by a lawn edging tool. Use of the spacer (10) assures that there will be sufficient spacing between the sprinkler head and the sidewalk, etc, for a lawn edging tool to be used there without damaging the sprinkler head (20).
