Troubleshooting

Pegs are difficult to drive into the ground.

Try pre-drilling a pilot hole using a drill or a metal rod to ease insertion, or try a different location with softer ground.

Pegs are bending or breaking.

Avoid excessive force when hammering. Consider using a heavier-duty peg or a different anchoring method for very hard ground or heavy loads.

Pegs are not holding the covering securely.

Ensure the pegs are driven in at the correct angle and are fully inserted into the ground. Check that the tension on the covering is not excessive.
