This guying system, offered as a kit, can be adapted to trees according to their size. Made from high-quality materials (tempered steel, galvanised steel), it is a sturdy device that securely anchors them to the ground, providing highly effective protection against the wind.

This 3-point guying system offered as a kit adapts to trees according to their size. Made from quality materials (tempered steel, galvanised steel), it is a sturdy device that effectively anchors them to the ground to prevent them from bending under the force of strong winds.

This kit consists of:

3 tempered steel anchors to be driven into the ground and evenly distributed around the base of the tree
3 galvanised steel cables that connect the tree to the anchors.
6 wire rope grips that are used to close the loops formed with the cable.
3 red visual protection tubes
3 reinforced protection tubes for the trunk.

Guying trees is essential when they are newly planted in wind-exposed sites. On one hand, because their root system is still insufficiently developed to ensure proper anchoring of the plant in the soil, and on the other hand, because the above-ground vegetation, often disproportionate to this root system, offers significant wind resistance. Guying is a good alternative when a simple staking system is not enough. It is generally installed at the time of planting, for tall subjects (3 m (10 ft) and above) or for all young trees subjected to strong winds. This system remains in place for a minimum of 2 or 3 years, a necessary time for the consolidation of the root layer.

Tips for installation:

The cables are attached to the trunk at a level that represents approximately 2/3 of the tree's height.
The angle between a cable and the trunk should measure between 45° and 60°. To do this, it is necessary to sufficiently distance the anchors from the trunk base, depending on the height of the tree: for a tree 2 to 3 m (7 to 10 ft) tall, allow for 1.5 m (5 ft) of spacing. For a tree 2.5 to 5 m (8 to 16 ft) tall, allow for 2 m (7 ft) of spacing.

Detailed features

Directions for use This 3-point guying system, offered as a kit, is suitable for trees with a trunk diameter ranging from 10/12 to 18/20 cm (4/5 to 7/8 in) and a height of 2 to 4 m (7 to 13 ft). The kit consists of: 3 anchors (110 x 50 x 3 cm (43 x 20 x 1 in)) made of hardened steel, to be driven into the ground and evenly distributed around the base of the tree. 3 galvanised steel cables with a section of 2.5 mm (0.1 in) and a length of 3.7 m (12 ft), which connect the tree to the anchors. 6 cable clamps with stirrups, used to close the loops formed with the cable. 3 red visual protection tubes. 3 reinforced protection tubes for the trunk.

Tips for installation: The cables should be attached to the trunk at a level that represents approximately 2/3 of the tree's height. The angle between a cable and the trunk should measure between 45° and 60°. To achieve this, it is necessary to sufficiently separate the anchors from the base of the trunk, depending on the height of the tree: for a tree 2 to 3 m (7 to 10 ft) high, allow for 1.5 m (5 ft) of spacing. For a tree 2.5 to 45 m (8 to 150 ft) high, allow for 2 m (7 ft) of spacing.
