I have one of these. A tubular frame with reinforced plastic cover.
How can
I anchor it without making holes in the cover?


I had to make holes in the one I bought. But don't use a knife - melt a
hole with a hot poker or similar, it will be stronger.

This is

and stands on concrete slabs near to a fence.

It has no eyelets or other fixing.
I guess burning holes and sealing with hot glue then tie to fence is
best idea.

Thanks for replies


I used plastic pipe brackets (the ones for 15mm copper pipe I think).
They snapped over the frame and the plastic without tearing it. Then the
plastic disintegrated after a year or two of uv exposure. Then I bought
a replacement cover and got another couple of years. Now the metal parts
are used as shelves inside my shed. Project abandoned.
