How to Anchor a Canopy on Concrete

It's important to anchor down your pop up canopy just in case it takes off in a sudden gust of wind. But what do you do when you're on concrete and can't hit in the tent pegs that came with your canopy? Unless there are permanent fixtures around, you're going to need to find or make weights that can keep you sunk hard onto the ground.

How much weight do you recommend? The method here seems prone to the whole canopy being lifted vertically by winds as the straps have no horizontal anchor points to the frame.

I've got 32lbs on each side doing my first vendor ever do u think that's enough for a 10x10?

[@armando7257]

It’s either too much or not enough… it all depends on the wind 😂

[@armandorosete7667]

Where did you get the bags at with the straps ? Thank you

[@escapedomain]

Hi Armando, I got these particular ones from www.snowys.com.au/ (Australian site) but there are some on amazon too. Let me know if you need help finding any

Why don't you do this on a less windy day? You can't hardly hear you.

Mine still blew over this was useless

Hi, sorry to hear things didnt go well! Hopefully you had enough weight in ur bags? My advice on this is: As a rule of thumb, for a 10x10ft (3x3m) canopy in mild conditions, would be to weigh down each leg with around 45-65 pounds (20-30kg). If stronger wind conditions are expected, or if your pop up canopy is bigger, consider doubling the weight. If high winds are expected do not use your canopy.
