How do you anchor this down? Is it sturdy enough for permanent placement and to withstand crazy Florida storms?

Well I'm in Texas and we get a lot of wind. I used the anchors that screw in the ground. Same as a pet leash anchor. So far so good!!!!

Can not vouch for how permanent as I have only had it a month, but my husband anchored it to concrete driveway and carriage house wall. Will see if it survives MT winter. I would take the canopy off if a big wind storm was predicted, and will keep snow from accumulating whenever possible.

I cant say how durable this is but it has stood up to several brisk storms in Ohio. Your discretion on will it for sure. They sell twist stakes that you can put in the ground to anchor the poles and top with a separate rope angled outward. As far as the material used in the top it is pretty strong. If you have nothing to anchor it to in the soil you can use cinder blocks and tie it down. I also put stakes in each pole bottom. As with any temporary shelter you do your best to secure it.

There are plenty of holes in the bottom for anchoring. My guess would be to either use concrete screws or drill anchors.

It is not really an easy thing to do properly. It needs to be anchored on all 4 corners to something that can withstand any wind and remain tensioned so that it doesn't appear to sag. Mine is actually folded up in my shed unused.

Yes, but ypu would want to anchor it so the wind would not blow it away - anchors are included.

If you anchor it as instructed, it is very secure. You can use the anchors provided or bolt it down.

there are metal spikes that fit into the footings ,allowing it to anchor pretty well . I used cable ties to attach them to a chain link fence. I suppose you could put one of those screws with the circle on top into the wall and run a cable tie through the hole and around your trellis. should be stable .

It has to be anchored to something, preferably concrete. They provided some heavy duty anchors that worked great. I sunk a 4 inch concrete base in the ground and attached the lamp. The whole thing is really lightweight and wind should cut around it. We get some pretty bad storms and I think it should hold up. So far this winter we have had several blizzards and 50mph winds with no problem

Local hardware store will have concrete anchors to hang it. Would need to drill holes for it.

I have mine against two wall but that doesn't guarantee that it won't come down in a storm. If your placing it along with no back support in a storm it will come down unless you have it fasten to the ground. Hope this helps!

Absolutely. I have left mine up for ten months and there's not a tear. It has also stood up to some pretty fierce winds, but I wouldn't recommend putting it up on a windy day, unless You have some good auger stakes. Mine is on a concrete patio, and I have eyebolts going into the concrete for the tiedowns.

Sorry, I can't help you. I live in Florida. I had some galvanized anchors that rusted out and left my posts adrift. With these I was able to stabilize everything again. Worked good for my purposes. I sold the house with no questions asked.

If it is waterproof and resistant to strong winds at anchor just need something heavy

I have mine on a chain link fence and have tie wraps securing the top and bottom. It holds up to the wind fairly well.

Depends on wind. But it comes with some anchors that you could tie down or push in the ground. I have used mine on a rock patio and just put some bags of pool salt on the legs for safety. I have only used anchors once.

I anchored mine down with heavy duty fence stakes from home depot and it withstands strong winds. The tiny stakes provided are laughable. The rest of the greenhouse is quite economical and functional.

NO, IT IS NOT STURDY! I added L-brackets to where the cross supports meet the corners, and flat brackets to where the 2 pieces of the cross supports connect, since it barely holds together when it's brand new, and mine still collapsed. We fixed it and added more brackets and even used paracord and giant ground stakes attached to each corner to give it more support, and even though it felt pretty solid after that, one mildly windy day, gusts of about 20 mph, it collapsed again. Please do yourself a favor and do not buy this gazebo.

Hello, I agree with the first reply, you will have to get anchors or something with weight to hold it in place, we use ours when camping with our RV. We have it secured to our RV and to the grounds in many places along its base, and have yet to run into problems when the winds go above 20 mph. Just figure a way to give the base of it some weight and you will have no issues. I is a great tent and we love ours. I'd recommend some anchors cemented around it and you will gain the peace of mind it is secure in place. Over kill will never come back to bite you. We,ather and the winds as front line ahead of the storms are more fierce than many years ago, the negative is the cement, its not like dirt or grass. Your issue is holding it in place to wind. Act of GOD "Mother Nature" something you can't control Think over-kill and you will have no problems.
