Anbte Heavy Duty Ground Anchor, Hardened Steel Flip Up and Down Wall Anchor with 4 Locking Points, Foldable, Motorbike Locks High Security for Motorcycles Bike Bicycle Scooters, Black

Good solid unit

This is an excellent ground anchor, I use it to secure one of my mountain bikes in the Garage. It seems to be made as well as a different one I already have, the only drawback with it (and why I have deducted a star) is that it doesn’t have a “Sold Secure” rating so can not be used with some insurance companies if you need to make a claim

EXACTLY what I needed to secure my bike. It feels solid and heavy right out of the box, which is always a great sign (only time will tell though); it’s straightforward to install with the included bolts, but you’ll most probably will need to have your own stone drill bit if you’re mounting it on something like concrete or brick (the husband takes care of that though for me!). I really like the extra thought that went into the design, like the little caps that cover the screws to make it tamper-proof but that being said, I've added some epoxy to the bolt holes and other parts of the fixture to make it even harder to remove. A great choice if you want to keep your bikes safe.

All the mounting hardware is there to attach this to a brick wall or a concrete wall, and it's a very very solid chunk of metal.

Price at review: £22.99This is a pretty solid hunk of metal which is quite easy to attach to a floor or in my case the wall. I think things like this are useful to chain things up inside garages or outside the house and then they're less likely to "go walkies" as someone would have to cut through or smash something to make off with them.

I don’t know about stopping a motorbike being stolen I think that if the Titanic was attached to this it would never have left port.It’s very, very strong. Relatively easy to fit, one word of caution, make sure you use a 16mm drill bit. 1 mm either way and it won’t fit properly.The likelihood is that this anchor will be stronger than whatever it’s attached to. Well worth £22.99 for peace of mind.

An enclosed copy of the instructions would have been appreciated. As per the graphic on the product information page, I used the base plate to mark the hole positions then drilled four holes into the ground with a 16mm masonry drill bit (the 10 only applies to the bolt inside the expansion mechanism). After that I tapped the four expansion screws in, unscrewed the black bolts with the larger (6mm) Allen key, put the base plate in position then screwed in the black bolts. For whatever reason one of them had no purchase, but the others were nice and tight and overall it still feels very secure. It was then just a matter of tapping in the anti-tamper ball bearings, securing the cover plate using the smaller (5mm) Allen key on the smaller screws, and covering the screw heads. There are always weak points in every bike security system, but this anchor has eliminated an obvious one.

This is the perfect solution for me. I needed to provide a strong anchor point to chain my bicycle up to, using a steel rope that I already had. This anchor provides the perfect fixing. You know from the minute you lift the box that there is some serious heft to this item, and upon inspection it certainly looks strong and well made.it is provided with appropriate fixings, although you might need to sort out a suitable masonry bit if mounting to concrete or a sturdy wall.
