Awning pegs

[Andrea_374395685]

Hi all,
Just after a bit of advice please.............
we have just booked onto a site in Cumbria but the whole of the pitch including where the awning will go is hard standing. This is not a problem apart from the naff pegs we have.
I am assuming there are proper pegs out there that are designed to hammer into hardstandings?

Hi Andrea
I use 8" screw pegs. I hammer them into the ground and either unscrew or pull out. I also have 8" rock pegs which work very well. Rock pegs are readily available at most dealers or on the internet. Screw pegs are more expensive and sold direct by the makers.

I'm with DD. Hammer in screwpegs, (or one of their variants), drill them out.

i was on a seasonal pitch for 2 years which was on hard standing i used rock pegs which are prob about a good 8" long, my awning didnt move bit of a ****** getting them out though but a big pair of pliars and a pry bar soon got them out

I would recommend rock pegs hammered in with a claw hammer or lump hammer and if its really hard ground use a drill slightly smaller than the diameter of the pegs to drill a poilet hole ithen insert the pegs make sure the drill is not to big or they will come out to easy and then for removing them use the claw on the back of the hammer to hook underneath the pegs.
