Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up your Lockable Hanging Basket, first identify a suitable sturdy mounting point such as a robust hook on a porch ceiling, a strong beam on a pergola, or a secure bracket on a wall. Attach the included mounting bracket to your chosen point, ensuring it is firmly fixed. Once the bracket is secure, simply hang the basket onto the bracket. If your basket has a separate locking mechanism, ensure it is engaged according to its specific design to secure the basket to the bracket.

Ensure the locking mechanism is functioning correctly. It is recommended to bring the basket indoors during harsh winter weather or extreme conditions to prolong its lifespan, though the steel structure is designed for outdoor durability.
