The front and side of my garden are very open and the back garden can be quite dark. As all these areas contain structures, I decided to secure them to walls, fences, etc., to protect them from being stolen, or blown over and damaged in high winds.

Using 2" L-Shaped brackets, which have two holes in both pieces, I placed them at various points on the structures and used screws and rawl plugs to fix them in position. With the brackets being reasonably small, they are unnoticed and don't affect the appearance of the structures at all.

What type of structures would we be talking about here C.J? I like the idea, it would be hard to see the brackets.
