Answered How to lock it in the garage

[Snoozeboy]

Recommendations please, for a system to lock up the bike as securely as possible in the garage. I'm looking for some kind of anchor that drills into the wall and a chain to attach to it. Weight no issue as it'll stay in the garage.

I brought a ground anchor and chain from here a few years ago. Sold Secure Approved & Police Approved Ground Anchors, Security Chains and more

I use the kryptonite anchor, would recommend all anchors in the ground not the wall. I also arlodite glue the bolts and then round off the heads!

In addition to the ground anchor you may wish to stop them getting in to the garage. Once they are in they have time to set about your bike. Hacksaw through the frame and then walk out with it, for example.

I have two lockable up and over sheet steel garage doors. I have riveted two sliding bolts to each door. The bolts slide into holes I have drilled into the garage floor. This means that I cannot get into the garage via those doors. That's OK as I no longer have room in there for cars. I can only open them from the inside, but that's easily done. The window openings are screwed shut. The glass and plywood pedestrian door has been replaced with a robust solid wood door with three 4" stainless steel heavy gauge hinges. Instead of one cheap 3-lever lock that half the village would have keys for, I have two 5-lever mortice locks. Security lights front and rear complete the job.

I am under no delusion that this will stop a determined thief, but it will slow them down and maybe they will decide to break in to a nearby garage instead of mine!

I was thinking of using an Alarm Mine. The impact of a blank 12-bore shotgun cartridge going off in the confines of my garage should put anyone to flight! But I haven't had a bike stolen yet, so it's a step too far for me, currently.

My garage is also alarmed and has anti snap titanium lock barrels

Thanks for replies. I just ordered an abus granit wba100 ground anchor and a kryptonite 1410 chain. Should be ok as a) this is Switzerland and b) next door's garage has a lot more stuff easily available.

I got a shotgun & the garage is alarmed to the house.....happy days ?
I've also got a Bosch motor & I keep the battery in the house ....so even Bradley wiggins would struggle to ride off on it ????
