Why Mobile Home Tie Downs?
Anchors and ties are designed and manufactured to keep your mobile homes in place, and protected in the event of high winds.
Manufactured homes are lightweight compared to normal “site-built” homes, and almost all of them are elevated and rest on a pier or foundation system.
This creates a twofold problem, with the wind getting under the home and lifting it, while the air passing over the top of your home creates uplifting forces.
Tie-Downs Protect Your Home
To keep your home properly protected from the effects of wind, you are going to need two different types of tie downs.
You’ll need a vertical or “over-the-top” tie down to help compensate for the uplift forces, and diagonal or “frame” tie downs to help fight against the lateral forces, along with added protection against uplift.
If you have a double-wide home, only diagonal ties are necessary.
