A general recommendation is one clip every half a metre of fabric. However, this may need adjustment based on how windy your location is, potentially requiring more frequent clipping in exposed areas.
Troubleshooting
Clip not holding fabric securely
Ensure the clip is pressed firmly onto the fabric. If the fabric is very thin or slippery, consider using clips closer together or on a double layer of fabric if possible.
Peg not going into the ground easily
The clips are designed for use with appropriate ground pegs. Ensure you are using pegs suitable for your soil type and conditions. The clips themselves do not affect peg insertion.
Clip breaking under strain
While durable, extreme forces could damage a clip. Ensure pegs are firmly seated in the ground and that the fabric is not excessively taut, which could cause undue stress on the clip.
