FAQs
Can this be used on concrete?
No, this kit is designed specifically for use in soil or grass where the steel pins can be driven into the ground.
Does it fit all trampoline shapes?

How many anchors come in a set?
The kit includes 4 heavy-duty galvanised steel pins and the corresponding adjustable tie straps.
What is the length of the pins?
The galvanised steel pins are 38cm in length, providing deep and secure ground anchorage.
Do I need tools to install this?
You will likely need a rubber mallet to drive the steel pins into the ground effectively.
Is this kit weather-resistant?
Yes, the pins are galvanised to provide high resistance against rust and corrosion caused by outdoor weather conditions.
Troubleshooting
The pin will not go fully into the ground
Check for large rocks or tree roots in the immediate area and try moving the anchor point slightly to a different spot.
The straps keep loosening
Ensure the strap buckle is correctly threaded and that you are checking the tension after the first few days of use, as soil may settle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Preparation: Identify the optimal placement for each anchor near the trampoline legs. Ensure the ground is not obstructed by underground pipes or cables.
- Installation: Drive the 38cm pins into the earth at an angle that pulls against the trampoline frame.
- Securing: Loop the adjustable straps around the trampoline frame and connect them to the pins, tightening until the straps are firm.
- Compatibility: This kit is suitable for 8ft to 14ft models of all shapes. If your trampoline has an irregular frame shape, use the adjustable nature of the straps to find the most secure anchor point.
- Maintenance: Periodically inspect the straps for signs of UV degradation or fraying and ensure the pins remain deeply seated in the soil.
