ANKS Heavy Duty Raccoon Proof & Windproof Trash Can Lid Lock Strap (Black)

Brand: ANKS

Color: Black

Features:

• 1. HEAVY-DUTY DOUBLE-CLAW LOCK WITH ZERO-STRETCH NYLON STRAP – BUILT TO LAST Replace flimsy plastic clips that snap or warp under high heat. Our rust-proof, non-slip metal double-claw hooks stand up to heat, rain, snow, and freezing temperatures — gripping the bin rim securely without losing strength. The zero-stretch nylon strap stays tight and holds its shape long-term, unlike elastic straps that weaken and loosen after just a few months of use.
• 2. PROVEN PROTECTION: RACCOONS, OPOSSUMS, STRAY DOGS & MORE Make sure the strap is adjusted to its tightest position. When locked down, the lid is firmly secured to the trash can — effectively preventing raccoons, opossums, wild boars, stray dogs, and other animals from prying it open. For larger animals like bears, proper installation is key: use the slide buckle to shorten the strap as much as possible, hook both claws onto a solid rim edge, and make sure it's pulled tight. Used correctly, this strap prevents the lid from being forced open.
• 3. COMPATIBLE WITH 32, 45 & 64 GALLON BINS – MEASURE FIRST Fits most standard outdoor trash cans — residential carts, round, square, and commercial bins. Strap adjusts 20.47 to 35.4 inches. Zero-stretch requires precise fit. Check two things before ordering: 1) Lid handle to rim edge — must be 35.4" or less. 2) Bin must have a rim/lip for the hook to grip. Without it, the strap won't secure. For 96-gallon bins: measure carefully — not all are compatible. Rim-to-handle must be 35.4" or less. See product images for measurement guide.
• 4. WINDPROOF & ALL-WEATHER RELIABILITY Tired of wind blowing your trash can lid open and scattering garbage across your yard? This strap locks the lid tight to the rim — wind cannot flip it open. The same heavy-duty nylon that resists sun, rain, snow, and freezing temperatures also keeps the strap flexible and strong, year after year, without cracking or stiffening.
• 5. TOOL-FREE INSTALLATION – DIAL IT IN. LOCK IT DOWN. No tools, no drilling — just adjust the buckle. Before hooking, use the slide buckle to shorten the strap a bit more than you think you need. Then hook the double claws onto the lid handle and rim edge. If it feels too loose, take it off, shorten it one more notch, and hook again. The right length is: short enough that you have to pull firmly to hook it on — that's when it's tightest. Once it's on, the lid is locked. The strap has zero stretch — so whatever length you set, that's it. No animal can pull it longer or stretch it loose. Lock it once. It stays locked.
