This guide is for anyone looking to secure their wheelie bin lid. The Selections Wheelie Bin Lid Security Strap offers a robust solution to prevent lids from opening due to wind, tipping, or animal interference, ensuring contents remain contained and inaccessible. While highly effective for its intended purpose, its effectiveness relies on proper attachment to compatible bin hinges and lips.

This strap is designed for standard wheelie bins that have a hinge bar at the back and a lip under the front edge of the lid for the claws to attach to. It may not fit bins with unusual designs.
The strap is adjustable and can range in length from 50cm to 100cm.
Yes, this product is sold as a pack of two straps.
The strap secures the lid, preventing it from opening. While it helps contain contents if the bin tips, it does not prevent the bin itself from being blown over by strong winds.
The strap is designed to be heavy duty, but determined animals may attempt to chew it. It provides a significant barrier that deters most casual attempts.
No, installation is straightforward and does not require any tools. Simply attach the claws and tighten the strap.
Periodically wipe it clean with a damp cloth. Inspect for wear and tear and replace if damaged to ensure continued effectiveness.
Ensure the strap mechanism is fully engaged and tightened. Check that the claws are securely attached to a suitable lip and hinge point. The bin lid may have an insufficient lip for the claw to grip.
Verify that your bin has a compatible hinge bar at the rear and a suitable lip under the front of the lid. Bins with very rounded edges or minimal protrusions may not allow for a secure claw grip.
Adjust the strap to its maximum or minimum length. If it's still unsuitable, your bin may be an unusual size for this product's adjustable range (50cm-100cm).
This indicates excessive force was applied, potentially beyond normal wind or tipping events. Inspect the bin and surroundings for obstructions or hazards causing the strain. Check for any damage to the strap material or claws.

Compatibility:
This strap is designed to work with standard wheelie bins that have a protruding hinge bar at the rear and a lip or edge on the underside of the lid at the front for the claw to grip. It may not be compatible with bins that have integrated locking mechanisms or unconventional lid/hinge designs.
