does it have holes in the base or can it be drilled to anchor it down to concrete?

Mike, we have been very pleased with our Cambridge lantern. It's been a year and as I recall, our contractor guy poured concrete and bolted it down. The mounting is very solid. Hope this helps.

No. Base is plastic. I buried it under rocks and it has been just fine for two years.

The base does not have pre-drilled holes, which is a major drawback if you want to anchor it down. The base is designed to be filled with sand to stabilize the lamp. However, the capacity is 30-40 pounds of sand, which won't keep the lamp upright in a strong wind. If you decide to drill holes to anchor the base, keep in mind that the base is a hard vinyl of some sort. So it would be easy to drill, but you will need a washer and bolt that are appropriate since (unlike wood or metal) the plastic will flex under stress.

Yes, it does have holes in the base. They are rather large but usable. Since we live in a high rain and wind area, we just brought our light in for the winter. Love it anyway!

No it doesn't have holes to anchor down, but I filled it with sand and it has never tipped over even in high winds.

Yes, but you have to buy concrete wall screw or concrete wall anchor. I also had to get a drill bit for concrete to drill the hole. My drill is not very powerful and it took 2 hours to make a hole deep enough in my garage wall to attach this. There is only one hole, so the unit moves when I put my bike on in. We only put one bike on it. A two-screw unit would be more stable. I do like that it folds up against the wall, if needed.

It is made to be mounted to something solid, it has 4 anchor bolts included with it. Either cement, a solid rock or maybe thick wood retaining wall. The base needs approx 9" across to anchor. It is made to be assembled in sections. This means you can have a height of abut 3'or 6', depending on your choice, very easy assembly. You would not put it in the ground unless you modified the brace and it would have to be in a hole filled with concrete to stabilize it.

The screws that come with the box won't work in concrete. You have to use a concrete drilland some anchored screws (with hooks).

It does not have holes. You could add them if you require them to hold it in place.

It has openings in the back for screws to secure it to a wall. Of-course like anything you attach to a cement wall you will have to drill into the wall and use a wall anchor to secure it

yes it has holes and comes with screws for the job... anchored ours to a 1x6 about 18" long about dead centerthis way you could stand on one side while kicking the other.. keeps it portable

It sounds similar to my case...I have been told that you have to use the drill into the concrete and use the anchors included. I decided to have someone do it for me

While it comes with mounting screws, you could anchor it, but since I would need to go through the threshold and then concrete, I didnt do so, and it has worked just fine.

There are no bolt holes. You could anchor it with a chain or drill some holes

It doesn't, but you can put 4 anchor bolts thru the base into a concrete pad if you install one.

Yes, using concrete screws anchors. You will need to drill into the wall using the appropriate drill and then put a contrete anchor into the hole to accept the screw. Not that complicated.

I do not remeber holes for bolting located behind it but I do remember there being holes in the floor for it to be bolted to the ground. I installed it in my grandmother's and drilled holes in the concrete floor to secure it.

It could stand in concrete so long as it does not need fastened down. It also has stakes.

Using concrete anchors from a hardware store you can anchor this to concrete without any issue. I did this with mine and worked perfectly. It comes with cable tie downs so use an anchor with eyelet bolts and your golden.
