FAQs
What does 'Sold Secure Bicycle Silver' approval mean?
This approval indicates that the product has undergone rigorous testing by Sold Secure, a leading authority in security testing, and meets a high standard of resistance against theft tools for bicycle security.
What is the maximum chain size this anchor can accept?
The Squire Wall Anchor is designed to fit chains with a maximum thickness of 8mm.
What is the finish of the wall anchor?
The wall anchor has a blue powder-coated finish, which provides durability and corrosion resistance.
What is included with the wall anchor?
The anchor is supplied with two security fixing bolts for installation.
Can this anchor be used outdoors?
While the powder coating offers protection, it is recommended to mount the anchor in a sheltered location to maximize its lifespan and effectiveness. Always ensure it is securely fastened to a robust surface.
What type of wall is best for installation?
It is best installed on solid, load-bearing walls such as brick or concrete. Avoid installing on hollow walls or plasterboard, as they may not provide sufficient strength to resist theft attempts.
Troubleshooting
Anchor feels loose after installation
Ensure the security fixing bolts are fully tightened into a solid wall. Check if the wall material is adequate for secure mounting.
My chain doesn't fit through the anchor loop
Verify that your bicycle chain's maximum thickness does not exceed 8mm. This anchor is designed for chains up to this limit.
Difficulty tightening the fixing bolts
Ensure you are using the correct drill bit size for the bolts and that the holes are clean. Use appropriate tools for tightening.
