I bought a 12x12" paver stone from Lowes, drilled holes in it, and bolted the lamp post to it.

I went and bought some large pots from walmart around 30 inch diam. and deep . I drilled holes in bottom of pot to match bolt pattern of light then secured the light to the pot poured in a 50 pound bag of pea stone the added potting soil and planted flowers in it and it looks great . It took all of about half hour . Erin Hill

I had an existing pole for an AC light that had the cable severed. I removed the light on top and replaced it with the top of the solar light. I did not use the pole that came with this light. Sorry!

We mounted ours on a concrete surface and bolted them down with the 3 bolts provided

We poured a square of concrete and bolted it to that. That's about the only way it will stay up

We nailed it to a board and then put it in the ground and covered it with dirt to hold it in place, there should be holes on the bottom of the pole to latch it to something, this worked really well and keeps it from falling over.

I got 12" metal spikes from Home Depot to stick into the ground (dirt). To secure better than that, you may want to consider pouring quick dry cement 1st, then use the spikes.

We drilled 3 holes through a slab of ledgestone somewhat larger than the base of the light (a piece roughly 1' x 1 3/4"). A piece wide enough to give it stability yet easy enough to relocate. We then used the 4" bolts provided to secure the light and move it around the patio and garden.

With the tarp staked, put the pole in the tie out loop and then use two guy lines to stake the pole. These poles are really good, strong, but they are pretty tall even at the lowest setting. To get set up ideas, check out youtube.

The pole part goes into that 3 legged piece, twist it all the way on, then that nut piece screws on after it to tighten it in place. Stick the pole piece right underneath the cage part and thru the center. It's loose so u can turn it.

I used four staples and elmers glue. Two staples were used to secure the rope in place at the beginning, note: the staples were covered by the first row of rope. I then put a little of elmers glue a few inches up and started wrapping the pole as you wrap the rope around the pole be sure tap it down to condense rope. By tapping down rope you get a very tight wrap. Once the glue was covered I added a little more another 3 to 4" up continue the process up the pole. I ended with two staples

You need to dig a hole to put the sleeve and then the main pole slides in. I would concrete the sleeve in the ground.

theres a pin that holds it on the pole. You could put steel cable through it and use a lock.

I used bunch of wall plastic anchors and screws. Also: the Stanley 819841 Pegboard Hooks which a bought at the same time are too small for the holes on the plate. They `re coming out all the time. I don`t like the product. Will not recommend it.

That would be 1.3" There is a set screw to tighten pole. But the anchor works so well I would recommend inserting a solid pipe inside, my umbrella actually broke at the top of the anchor. Most companies use hollow poles so they are lightweight. I stuck a piece of rebar in mine, works great, some give but won't break. Get big winds in FL If you can find an umbrella with solid pole would be better. Had to cut off part of mine where it broke, so a bit shorter, but rebar solved problem. Hope this helps. Mark

We used a staple gun with large staples. Use several staples along the first few inches at the bottom of the pole. If the staples won't go in all the way, use a hammer to make sure they're all really tight. Just wind the rest of the rope up to the top--wind as tightly as you can! Then staple along the top few loops. We can see the staples at the top; they're not very camouflage.

It's simple. Simply twist the top part of the pole to the left to position the pole to the desired height. And twist to the right to lock it.

Drill hole in wooden post (hole should be just wide enough to place pointy end of anchor inside). Place anchor in hole, pointy end first. Stick wire through hole into pointy end, and pull wire through the other end. Once it goes in the pointy end, it won't go back out, so plan accordingly. Screw anchor to post (holes in square flange). You're done.

no instructions that I recall. I set mine up on 4X4's with a tire and concrete base. found out due to the weight of the net that I need to add some tie-downs on the back side of the poles. Net is heavy and stretching it does not help. I ended up donating mine to a local charity and getting a lighter weight one for our one time a year use.

Put the anchor in the wall. Remove the white plastic plate from the black plastic unit. Screw the black plastic plate into the anchor. Snap white plastic into black plastic plate

You extend it in the same way as you do with most types of extending poles, just grab the center and then rotate the bottom and then pull it out to your length and then tighten it up again.

Put something similar to a smooth rock or bouncy ball in the netting, at the point you wish to anchor, and wrap the netting around the ball. Tie the string around the netting at the "bottom" of the ball and suspend.

With the anchor kit it is very easy. You hammer in the anchor, put the 4"x 4" pole over it, and then slide the mailbox over it and put in on screw. Very stably, very easy to instal. I was concerned about rocks in the ground, but the anchor is slim and pounded in very easily.

What I did is put a board on top of the poles & screwed hooks into the board; attach lights to board for even weight; also usedyoyos for lights.... Hope that helps & yes it'll hold it; I have 2-1000's hanging in it. Happy growing!
