What is the recommended method for securing the Landscape Square table in outdoor or windy conditions?

Securing your Landscape Square table in outdoor or windy environments is crucial for both safety and longevity. The recommended method involves a multi-faceted approach focusing on weight, anchoring, and strategic placement.

Firstly, increase the table's inherent stability by adding substantial weight to its base. This can be achieved by placing sandbags, decorative concrete pavers, or specially designed weight bags onto the lower shelf or frame. For permanent installations, filling the table legs with sand or fine gravel is a highly effective solution.

The most secure method is direct anchoring to a solid surface. For patios or decks, use sturdy ground anchors or screw-in anchors designed for outdoor furniture. Secure the table legs to these anchors using durable, weather-resistant straps, cables, or ratchet ties. On grass or soil, consider using spiral earth anchors or long stakes driven deep into the ground, then fastening the table to them.

Strategic placement also plays a key role. Position the table in a sheltered area, close to a wall, fence, or windbreak whenever possible. Using a fitted, heavy-duty table cover can reduce wind catch. For frequent high winds, consider a temporary takedown protocol.

Regularly inspect all anchors and ties for wear. By combining weight, mechanical anchoring, and smart placement, you can ensure your Landscape Square table remains stable, safe, and intact through challenging weather conditions.
