Match the anchor to the ground
What is your ground made of?
Holding power is a function of soil, not just hardware. Pick the class that matches your site and we'll point you at the right anchor. If you are between classes, use a torque probe — 200 to 350 in-lb puts you in the Class 4 to 6 range where the Load Lock performs best.
Figures are from B&R testing in virgin soil. Holding capacity varies with site conditions, moisture and installation. Test on site where the load is critical, and involve an engineer for Class 8 ground.

An anchor on its own is half a job
Anchors resist uplift. Frame ties stop a structure sliding sideways on its supports. Leveling jacks hold it flat through freeze-thaw. Use them together.

Before you buy
Questions we get asked
How deep does the anchor have to go?
Deep enough that it is planing against undisturbed soil, which depends on the ground. In Class 5 medium-dense sandy clay a #68 is typically set at 30" and a #88 at 36". Softer ground gives less resistance, so the anchor goes deeper. Use the soil class selector above as a starting point.
How do I know what soil class I'm in?
A soil test probe reads sub-soil resistance without taking core samples. Torque readings of roughly 200 to 350 in-lb put you in the Class 4 to 6 range, which is where the Load Lock performs best. Lower readings mean softer soil and a deeper set. If the load is critical, test on site.
Do I need frame ties as well as anchors?
Yes. An anchor resists uplift — the wind trying to lift the structure. A frame tie stops the structure sliding sideways off its supports. On any mobile or portable building you want both, and you want the ratchet kept with at least three full turns of strap on the drum.
What does frost do to a set anchor?
Frost raises and lowers the ground through the season, which can slacken or tighten a strap. Check ratchets seasonally, loosen and re-tension as needed, and keep three full turns on the drum.
Can I buy just the casting?
Yes. Installers and OEMs who rig their own cable and hardware buy the bare Load Lock casting in #68 (LL680) and #88 (LL880). Same sand-cast aluminum alloy to ASTM B26-72, same patterns, finished in our shop.
Where do these ship from, and can I pick up?
Everything ships from our own Ontario shop. Small anchors and hardware go by parcel; pallet quantities go LTL across Canada. Pickup can be arranged — call 905-847-5294 to set a time.
