SecureFix Direct Static Caravan Tie Down Kit - Ground Anchor Bolts

This kit is designed to provide extra stability to static caravans, helping to prevent them from rocking or moving excessively during strong winds and stormy weather.

This kit is specifically designed for static caravans. Touring caravans have different anchoring requirements and are typically secured differently when in transit or parked.

The kit provides four anchor points, each consisting of a ground anchor bolt, a dee shackle, and a straining screw, along with a tether cable.

The kit includes four 10MM x 70MM ground anchor bolts, four M10 straining screws, four 8MM dee shackles, and four 1M x 6MM PVC-coated tether cables.

The kit significantly enhances stability, but it may not completely prevent all movement in extreme weather conditions. It is advised to take additional safety protocols if necessary.

You adjust the tension using the M10 hook and hook straining screws. Turn the body of the straining screw to either lengthen or shorten the cable until the desired tension is achieved.

The anchor bolts work best in firm, stable ground such as compacted soil or grass. They may not be as effective in very soft or sandy soil.

Ensure the ground is free of large rocks or obstructions. If the ground is very hard, slightly moistening it may help. For extremely tough ground, consider using a mallet or driving aid (not included).

Clean any dirt or debris from the screw threads. Apply a small amount of penetrating lubricant to the threads and work the screw back and forth until it moves freely.

Re-check the tension on all cables using the straining screws. Ensure all anchor bolts are fully and securely embedded. Consider adding additional tie-down points or using supplementary anchoring methods as advised.

Clean the affected areas with a wire brush. Apply a rust inhibitor or a protective coating suitable for galvanized steel. Regular cleaning and maintenance can prevent excessive corrosion.
