How do you secure this lighthouse to the ground, does it come with stakes?

It comes with one stake. Has not fallen over since we bought it a year ago.

It does have one single 6" plastic stake in the center which seems to hold pretty well. I have some gravel/small rocks around the base which also helps stop movement in the wind.

This one comes with ground stakes. But the legs are open pvc, so if you were to get creative, you could probably attach it. It is tall however it is pretty sturdy, so that would have to be taken into consideration.

I stake it to the ground at the poles but also added some small nylon ropes and attached them near the roof to add sway protection (your reference to guy wires) in case a storm comes up. With the sides down, it's a big area for the wind to grab.

I believe you can get them from the source of your purchase. Best thing to remember when securing a pole/stake that long, is to grasp it down low at the base where you are inserting in the ground. If you hit something solid it will keep you from bending the pole/stake. My dealings with the source I purchased the product has always been very positive and they work with you. I sure they could assist you with getting additional stakes for purchase. Hope all goes well.

No, it does not come with stakes, but the legs are very sturdy. Thanks for your interest in the Bow Net!

They say pound legs into ground- that's the stakes!! In addition to that go to hardware store & buy 3-4' sections of rebar pound in next to legs- wind stainless steel wire & wrap & tighten around legs-.that's what I did!!

Each light does come with a ground stake, and the 15.6" height is from the connection to the stake (ground level) to the tip of the cap. They light very nicely and look nice to. I have 14 of them around my house.

It has holes on the bottom edge that can be used to stake it. It does not come with stakes. Wind will blow it over if not staked down.

Yes! The set comes with metal stakes. Each leg has a small hole at the end specifically for this purpose. It is fairly sturdy without stakes but it's easy to knock over if you hang a heavy lantern on it. I stake it most of the time, but I'm lazy by nature and it hasn't ever fallen over when I skipped the stakes.

I don't recall purchasing stakes, separately. I believe that they were included in the box. :o)

Yes it has a stake. The compression electrical connectors are useless, you will have to use something else to make the connections. The lamp itself works well and throws plenty of light.

The tent comes with its own metal tent stakes. I did purchase some large nails to push between the spaces on the deck to attach the tent cords to, since we set it up on a deck and not on the ground. You will need a hammer or mallet to drive the stakes into the ground. You should not need to purchase the "tent kit" as this tent is quite easy to put up.

Yes, can be staked down. Stakes not provided. However, we've found that it doesn't move much, very sturdy as is.

Hi. It comes with stakes and you need to use them. You also need the guide lines. This tent does not stay up without it so that means you need good soil too. I tried using this tent on the beach and ended up with it laying on top of me. Hope this helps.

No, it does not come with anything to anchor it to the ground. It's light weight and tips over if kids push the walls.

It has stakes to ground it and it can be secured to a wall as well. Mine was not on level ground and we have very high winds. It tends to be top heavy if you aren't careful. Mine lasted just one spring, the plastic isn't sun safe and cracked.

It is not free standing. My only concern would be keeping the stakes down in sand.
