Can it be secured to the ground to prevent tipovers and theft?

YES on a deck or porch. Maybe in the ground. We figured out a way to bolt it to our (wood) front porch so it would be safe when grandkids leaned on the back. Just take two 3" (or so) triangular gate-type/strap hinges, fit them at a 90° angle, one on the deck, one on the bench leg and screw down tightly. Voila! Maybe the same could be down in a yard with super long screws or more 'ground friendly' type attachments?

No, it has straight legs, with nothing that can even be rigged to secure it. It's a great bench, but if you are set on securing it, this is not the bench for you.

I see no way of securing it. We've just had some bad storms and heavy rain in the area; the bench sits out between two trees and flower pots and it has never tipped over. If someone wants it, it's a heavy piece to be taking. Not something you could easily carry off.

I think so. I would recommend using ground stakes to keep it well anchored to the ground.

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

We have ours on cement for bike storage. I would think so if put on grass and auger's used to secure.

It has holes on the bottom that can be secured to the floor or ground. It is heavy but does need to be secured to work properly.

No, it can't really be secured. It could be knocked off easily. I'd recommend it for office use.

Yes, but you will need the security tool to "lock" it or use ty straps to secure.Thanks , Chris

Not unless you also tape it securely. The latches that hold the top on could get released in transit.

There's nothing to secure them so I don't think you can. I would not recommend it as they are very heavy.

The legs must be pounded into the ground a minimum amount of inches, that will anchor it securely.

It installs by hooking keyhole slots over screw heads, so no, without special effort on your part it is not particularly theft proof. In my case the unit is mounted about 10 feet above the ground; it triggers over a range of 10-12 horizontal feet for me, which was about what I was hoping for.

This safe is not designed to be bolted to the floor. You could do it but it would require a custom solution. I think it would be better to buy a safe designed to be bolted to the floor rather than to develop a custom solution.

It is not going to tip or anything if you do not bolt it, but a safe really should be bolted down. It only takes a couple big guys with a furniture mover to steal the whole thing.

For balance, maybe, but I expect in a fall it won't save you. Even if screwed to a stud, I think the rest of the mounting hardware might not be strong enough.

I personally would not remove it, it is so small it could be secured very easily, if it were to tip over, the battery is a sealed unit

Could be I guess if you figure out how to anchor to the ground since it's pretty light weight. I would not reccomend leaving outside though.

It has stakes for the ground outside but it has holes with grommets, so if you had something to fasten it to, you could.
