UIView bottom border?

Implemented in a category as below:

UIButton+Border.h:

@interface UIButton (Border)

- (void)addBottomBorderWithColor: (UIColor *) color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth;

- (void)addLeftBorderWithColor: (UIColor *) color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth;

- (void)addRightBorderWithColor: (UIColor *) color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth;

- (void)addTopBorderWithColor: (UIColor *) color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth;

@end

UIButton+Border.m:

@implementation UIButton (Border)

- (void)addTopBorderWithColor:(UIColor *)color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth {
    CALayer *border = [CALayer layer];
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor;

    border.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, borderWidth);
    [self.layer addSublayer:border];
}

- (void)addBottomBorderWithColor:(UIColor *)color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth {
    CALayer *border = [CALayer layer];
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor;

    border.frame = CGRectMake(0, self.frame.size.height - borderWidth, self.frame.size.width, borderWidth);
    [self.layer addSublayer:border];
}

- (void)addLeftBorderWithColor:(UIColor *)color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth {
    CALayer *border = [CALayer layer];
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor;

    border.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, borderWidth, self.frame.size.height);
    [self.layer addSublayer:border];
}

- (void)addRightBorderWithColor:(UIColor *)color andWidth:(CGFloat) borderWidth {
    CALayer *border = [CALayer layer];
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor;

    border.frame = CGRectMake(self.frame.size.width - borderWidth, 0, borderWidth, self.frame.size.height);
    [self.layer addSublayer:border];
}

@end

Here is a more generalized Swift extension to create border for any UIView subclass:

import UIKit

extension UIView {      
  func addTopBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
    let border = CALayer()
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor
    border.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, width)
    self.layer.addSublayer(border)
  }

  func addRightBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
    let border = CALayer()
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor
    border.frame = CGRectMake(self.frame.size.width - width, 0, width, self.frame.size.height)
    self.layer.addSublayer(border)
  }

  func addBottomBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
    let border = CALayer()
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor
    border.frame = CGRectMake(0, self.frame.size.height - width, self.frame.size.width, width)
    self.layer.addSublayer(border)
  }

  func addLeftBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
    let border = CALayer()
    border.backgroundColor = color.CGColor
    border.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, width, self.frame.size.height)
    self.layer.addSublayer(border)
  }
}

Swift 3

extension UIView {
    func addTopBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
        let border = CALayer()
        border.backgroundColor = color.cgColor
        border.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: self.frame.size.width, height: width)
        self.layer.addSublayer(border)
    }

    func addRightBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
        let border = CALayer()
        border.backgroundColor = color.cgColor
        border.frame = CGRect(x: self.frame.size.width - width, y: 0, width: width, height: self.frame.size.height)
        self.layer.addSublayer(border)
    }

    func addBottomBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
        let border = CALayer()
        border.backgroundColor = color.cgColor
        border.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: self.frame.size.height - width, width: self.frame.size.width, height: width)
        self.layer.addSublayer(border)
    }

    func addLeftBorderWithColor(color: UIColor, width: CGFloat) {
        let border = CALayer()
        border.backgroundColor = color.cgColor
        border.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: width, height: self.frame.size.height)
        self.layer.addSublayer(border)
    }
}

Instead of using a UIView, as @ImreKelényi suggests, you can use a CALayer:

// Add a bottomBorder.
CALayer *bottomBorder = [CALayer layer];

bottomBorder.frame = CGRectMake(0.0f, 43.0f, toScrollView.frame.size.width, 1.0f);

bottomBorder.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.8f 
                                                 alpha:1.0f].CGColor;

[toScrollView.layer addSublayer:bottomBorder];
