TIE DOWN GROUND ANCHOR
Our Tie Down Ground Anchors are just what you need for securing tent guy wires or other temporary structures. They use the same ½” drive system as our Deck Foot Anchor™ for fast and easy installation and removal.
Available in 24″ or 36″ lengths with a 5″x5″ 12 gauge (3mm) cap plate.
Warning:
Rocks, roots, or a weak impact wrench (we recommend a corded 350 ft-lbs DeWalt) may prevent you from driving the auger fully into the soil. Use only a 6 point socket as a 12 point socket may strip the driver head.

TERRA-SHIFT: A SHOCK ABSORBER THAT PROTECTS YOUR DECK
Watch this demonstration of how the patented Terra-Shift system works to relieve stresses that may build up during seasonal changes and threaten the integrity of your deck structure.
Regardless of the harshness of your climate, the post to beam connections supporting your structure will remain strong and sturdy.
AUGERS AVAILABLE IN 24" OR 36" LENGTHS
Use the 24″ for most applications. Use the 36″ auger when you want more wind uplift resistance or you are building on a slope. The auger length will make no difference how the Deck Foot will perform in frost as the above animation shows.
The deck will always be resting on the surface and will rise or descend marginally with the soil expansion and contraction. But it will always remain securely anchored to the ground.
USE OUR IMPACT SOCKETS
Our 12mm high impact six point socket is designed to grip the hexagon drive head without stripping no matter the load.
This tiny investment can save headaches on the job site. If you use a low quality twelve point socket that does not fit as well, you are more likely to strip the drive head while under maximum load.
WARNING: Your experience with the Deck Foot Anchor is entirely dependent on your soil type. Rocks or roots or a weak impact wrench can prevent the auger from driving fully into the soil and an improperly sized socket can strip the driver head. Continuous torque for an extended period of time on the auger, once it has been stopped by a rock or immobile obstruction, can destroy the auger. The footing does not provide any significant lateral load resistance and should be used for compression load applications only.
