Secure Anchor?

[RichA]

Does anyone have any experience of these...

I am looking to attach to a wall at the front of my house to secure my bike to - using a D-Lock. How secure would this be?

Thks,
RichA

Any one with a spanner could just undo the eye bolt or I can easily be sawn as they are not hardened.

Thanks.

I new that it could be undone - but with a bike attached (via a D-Lock) figured it turning the eyebolt would involve also turning the bike! So I felt was a sufficient deterent.

I hadn't thought of the sawing issue? Anyone see a strengthened bolt. Or any other ideas (not too expensive)?

Many thanks,
RichA

You can get steel brackets that you fix using 2 countersunk rawl bolts.... once installed you push a supplied ball bearing into the recess of the bolt head so it cant be undone, i think theyre about £20 or so.

you can use ground anchors which can be concreted in or one of these

The other thing to consider is "they" can take everything that isn`t attached to the D-lock

..leaving you with perhaps just a frame shackled to the wall
