STRAIGHT ANSWER
WHAT WORKS WHEN PEGS CANNOT GO IN?
Use gazebo weights designed to sit at and connect to the legs, following the gazebo manufacturer's requirements. Sand-filled weights are portable when empty and can be filled locally before use on concrete or asphalt.
WHY CONNECTION MATTERS
KEEP THE WEIGHT AT THE LEG.
A loose weight beside the gazebo is not the same as a weight connected to it. Lumpet's claw shape wraps around the leg and buckles closed, keeping the filled bag low and close to the gazebo foot.
MORE WEIGHT
STACK MORE WEIGHT AT ONE LEG.
One Lumpet holds up to 20 kg of sand. If the setup needs more at a particular leg, additional bags can be stacked when the equipment layout and stability allow. Every leg still needs to be considered as part of the whole anchoring plan.
HARD SURFACES
CONCRETE IS NOT THE ONLY USE CASE.
- Concrete event sites and forecourts
- Asphalt car parks and market areas
- Timber or composite decks
- Artificial turf and hard courts
- Indoor exhibition and studio floors
SAFETY
CHECK THE WEATHER AND THE MANUAL.
Added weight cannot make a gazebo safe in every weather condition. Walls can increase wind loading significantly. Follow the gazebo manufacturer's instructions, use every required anchoring method and take the structure down when the forecast or site conditions demand it.
