A portable garage can protect your car, truck, motorcycle, boat, or camper from weather all year. Portable garages are made from heavy-duty steel frames that can stand up to rain and snow and have polyethylene covers that can resist mold, mildew, and damage caused by the sun’s UV rays.
Even though portable garages are durable, they can become damaged by weather in some cases. Strong winds are a concern. A fierce gust of wind can blow a portable garage down if it is not anchored correctly. Fortunately, anchoring a portable garage is fairly simple.
Duckbill Anchors
Duckbill anchors can be driven into the ground with a drive steel. Since they do not require any digging or concrete, duckbill anchors are a safe and environmentally friendly choice to keep your portable garage secure. They work like a toggle bolt in soil and can save time and labor. Duckbill anchors can hold up to 1,100 pounds in normal soil. They can also be used on asphalt by drilling a 2-inch hole in the asphalt before driving in the anchor.
Auger Anchors
Heavy-duty auger anchors can also be used with a portable garage. The auger anchor assembly includes a 30-inch ground anchor, steel cable, and cable clamps that can be used to secure the frame. The auger has a 3-inch diameter disc at the bottom that can be secured into the ground. Auger anchors are ideal for dirt or grass surfaces.
