Earth screws
Earth screws
Ground screws, also known as ground anchors or screw anchors , are versatile tools for construction and firefighting. They serve as temporary or permanent anchor points in the ground and foundations , and can withstand tensile loads. Available lengths: 60 cm, 80 cm, and 100 cm. Very easy to install!
Screw-in ground anchors for secure ground anchoring and as a foundation
Ground anchors for screwing in , ground screws or screw anchors are used in various applications, such as:
- Stable ground screw foundation : Perfect solution for garden sheds, pavilions, greenhouses, patios and carports, for permanent or temporary applications (reusable if not damaged), immediately load-bearing even in winter.
Guying of masts : Ground anchors are used to securely anchor masts to the ground and absorb tensile forces. This is particularly important in situations where high stability and safety are required, for example, when installing antenna masts or temporary structures such as event stages.
Vehicle recovery : Ground anchors can serve as anchor points to secure vehicles during recovery or rescue operations. They provide reliable anchoring in the ground to absorb tensile forces and enable the safe towing or moving of vehicles across rough terrain.
Moving loads across uneven terrain : Ground anchors are frequently used in logistics and transport to secure loads on uneven terrain. They serve as a fixed anchor point to distribute the tensile force and prevent the load from slipping or sliding.
Agricultural applications : In agriculture, ground anchors are often used in hop cultivation, viticulture, or to secure newly planted or weak trees. They offer additional stability and protection against strong winds or other environmental influences.
Anchoring tents and tarpaulins : In smaller versions, ground anchors are used to firmly secure tents, tarpaulins, or awnings to the ground. This ensures a safe and stable structure, especially in windy conditions.
Robust fence or construction fence anchors , especially when equipped with privacy screens and noise-reducing mats : A secure solution for privacy and noise protection to prevent construction fences from falling over, e.g., during storms. Also suitable as a foundation for fence posts.
- Anchoring on the beach : Stable hold for tents, sun sails, parasols and beach equipment.
- Anchoring photovoltaic systems / PV systems in the ground: possibly without VAT : Is your system for private use and under 30kW? Then you can buy the screw foundations and brackets from us VAT-free WITHOUT 19% VAT! Simply write a short confirmation in your
Ground anchors are available in various sizes (60 cm, 80 cm and 100 cm lengths) and designs to meet the requirements of different applications. They offer a simple and effective way to safely absorb tensile forces in the ground and serve as reliable anchor points in various areas.

Preparation:
- Measure foundation points.
- For flush installation, the turf or soil must be removed in a circle of
The soil should be removed approximately 30 cm around the foundation and approximately 5 cm deep. This ensures a
