Stretch Tent and Bedouin Tent Ground Anchoring

Stretch and Bedouin tents are eye-catching and flexible structures that require reliable ground anchoring due to their large surface area and tensioned design. GroundGrabba’s Commercial Series anchors are ideal for securing these tents fast and firmly in various soil types.

Commercial Pro Pack

At 450mm long with a robust 15mm shaft, the Commercial Pro is ideal for anchoring in hard, compacted ground where penetration is more challenging. Its aggressive flighting delivers strong bite and reliable holding power, making it well-suited for securing edge points of Bedouin and stretch tents in tough terrain. A dependable option when depth is limited but firm grip is essential.

Commercial Pro I Pack

A 600mm long, heavy-duty anchor made with a 15mm shaft and aggressive flighting, the Commercial Pro I delivers powerful hold in a wide range of soils — from compacted dirt to loose topsoil. Ideal for securing primary load-bearing corners or high-tension tie-downs on stretch tents, especially where rapid deployment and strength matter.

Commercial Pro II Pack

Our longest and strongest 15mm-shaft ground anchor at 900mm, the Commercial Pro II is built for extreme holding power in soft, loose, or unstable terrain. It’s the go-to choice for securing large Bedouin tents in exposed locations where wind uplift and load strain are high. Use at key structural points where failure is not an option.

Closed Hook 14 Commercial

Made from hot-dip galvanised steel for commercial durability, the ClosedHook 14 features a large tear-drop hole to accommodate the 41mm collar flange of the GR14 Commercial Pro series. Attach guy lines, ratchet straps, or rigging cables with confidence. It also fits the GR13 Pro range, offering added versatility across multiple anchoring needs.

Stretch Tent & Bedouin Tent Ground Anchoring

When it comes to setting up a stretch tent or Bedouin tent, the visual impact and unique flow of the canopy often steal the show. But behind the elegance lies a critical safety factor: reliable ground anchoring. These tensile fabric structures rely entirely on tension and load distribution across multiple tie-down points. If even one anchor fails—especially under wind stress—the entire setup can shift, collapse, or become hazardous.

That’s where GroundGrabba comes in.

Designed to provide serious holding power across a variety of ground types, GroundGrabba’s heavy-duty screw-in anchors give event crews and stretch tent providers the confidence they need for secure installs, every time. Whether you're on sandy festival grounds, compacted soil in a vineyard, or clay-heavy terrain on private property, we’ve got an anchor system for you.

Why anchoring matters more with stretch and Bedouin tents

These stunning tents achieve their iconic look through strategic tensioning. Fabric is pulled tight from the centre outwards and anchored at various points around the perimeter. Unlike framed marquees, there's no rigid skeleton to offer resistance—your entire structure is only as secure as the anchors keeping it grounded.

That’s why the depth, grip, and durability of your anchor choice becomes mission-critical.

The GroundGrabba Advantage

GroundGrabba anchors are installed with a cordless impact wrench—no hammers, no digging, and no waiting for concrete to set. Their aggressive flighting (deep spiral threading) burrows into the substrate, creating significant surface area resistance against upward and lateral forces. The result? A solid, dependable anchor that won't loosen or twist under strain.

With stretch tents often installed in scenic or variable terrain—like grassy hills, soft sand, forest floors, or compacted dirt—your anchoring solution must be adaptable. Our range of commercial anchors gives you that flexibility:

  • Commercial Pro: Suited for hard-packed earth where depth is limited but strength is required.
  • Commercial Pro I and II: Deliver deeper hold for loose soils or higher-tension applications.
  • ClosedHook 14s: Provide tough, galvanised attachment points that accommodate the wider GR14 anchor collar, allowing for strong tie-downs even in high-load zones.

Built for events, made for speed

Time is money, especially on large event setups. GroundGrabba's drill-driven install process dramatically reduces setup and pack-down time. When you’re managing dozens of anchor points across a sprawling Bedouin canopy, this speed matters. And if the terrain throws you a curveball—be it tree roots, stones, or unpredictable soil—you can adjust and re-anchor on the fly.

Our system is also fully reusable. Simply reverse your impact wrench to extract the anchor, with minimal ground disturbance. No waste, no rusted pegs left behind, no rental fees for concrete blocks or water barrels.

Weather resistance you can count on

One of the biggest threats to temporary structures is wind. The large surface area of Bedouin tents acts like a sail, especially if your site is exposed. While traditional pegs may bend, slip, or pull out entirely under gust pressure, GroundGrabbas are engineered to stay put. We’ve had customers report anchors holding fast in 70+ km/h winds where other systems failed.

Australian-designed, field-proven

We’ve developed GroundGrabba to withstand the harshest Australian environments—from red desert sand to coastal wind zones. Built with durability and reliability in mind, these ground screws are trusted by event professionals, festival organisers, and outdoor specialists alike.

Whether you're setting up for a wedding in wine country or deploying a Bedouin tent for a music festival, don't leave your anchoring to chance. Go with a system that's fast, dependable, and purpose-built for serious holding strength.
