Video · Anchoring a gazebo without concrete

Video hosted on YouTube: it only loads when you press play.

How do you anchor a gazebo without concrete? With a T-Block ground screw, installed by hand: a 50 cm T-Block with a hexagonal head and an M12 thread for hooks, eyebolts, bolts or brackets.

It is screwed in with a T-handle and a socket, with no digging and no concrete, and when it is no longer needed it is unscrewed and leaves no trace. Used to anchor gazebos, tents, garden games, greenhouses and outdoor furniture.
