ABOUT THE LOCKPEG

What is the Lockpeg?

It’s a new concept in ground anchorage. The lockpeg is designed to stay in the ground while
you sleep through the night. The triangular nature of the lockpeg resists vibrating loose.
Normal pegs are prone to this, caused by wind gusts, consistently moving the peg around.
Finally there is an answer!

The lockpeg does not require precise angular insertion for a sufficient hold like ordinary pegs.
Just hammer it in along with it's insert peg and rest easy.

The stainless steel lockpeg takes an ‘off the market’ peg as its second (although it does come
with its own insert pegs). It will take up to a 6.3mm wire style insert peg.

How does it work?

It’s so simple! Drive the lockpeg into the ground followed by it's insert peg.
To remove. Simply pull out the insert peg followed by the Lockpeg.

What’s its advantage over other pegs?

∙ Resists vibrating loose!

∙ Easy insertion, Easy removal. No twisting or screwing. Screw style alternative pegs are very
awkward to insert and are problematic when confronted with rocky terrain.

∙ Small compact stainless steel design. Perfect for hard soil. It's thin nature allows the Lockpeg
to be inserted in a variety of soils.

∙ Provides a full spectrum of radial hold (They won’t pull out the same way they were driven in
like other pegs).

∙ Provides a safe and reliable method to ground your tent in extreme environments.

∙ Manufactured from quality stainless steel/glass reinforced nylon means the Lockpeg is very
strong.

∙ A large head makes it easy to insert.

∙ The hook is placed vertical to the shank for a sure hold.

∙ Patent pending design.

What are some uses?

The Lockpeg may be used to anchor many applications, such as; field nets for sporting events,
tents, marquees, gazebos and outdoor sails.

The Lockpeg was taken to our National Fieldays event where I was able to ask
the general public what they thought of the idea.

Here are some of the comments (Fieldays questionnaire)...

Dean Crow; Great idea for soft ground with added stay. Also being stainless it’s very strong for
hard ground.

Brett Whyte; Robust design that would hold well where others wont – EXCELLENT!

M.G. Porterus; EXCELLENT IDEA!!

Richard Butler; Straight forward, simple idea. GREAT!

Ray Pryor; Smart idea, good potential.

Bruce Pearce; Awesome idea, wish it had been around years ago.

Ben Cleland; Excellent idea, I’m a tramper and appreciate good design.

Kelvin Beltcher; sets of 6 for the larger tents. Good product.

Alan Clark; Versatile, light, great product.

Phyllis Wong; Looks like a good product, would love a set.

John Worley; Brilliant! I’m an engineer.

Murray Barclay; Finally a solution!

Gordon Price; GREAT.

Fred Putt; Good application, engineering advantage.

Daniel Gapes; Excellent idea!

Snow Rogers; Bloody great idea.

Vance Farrow; Great idea.

Jenny Meares; Scope for bigger version to moore boats.

Desreid; Clever, Innovative!

Eric Nienhuis; Very cool, simple & clever.
