How to secure bike in carport?

A Practical Guide to Bicycle Carport Theft Prevention

1. Hellish Reinforcement of Fixed Points

Welding U-shaped locks to columns: → Cut 10cm thick-walled steel pipe → Split it longitudinally → Fully weld to the column 1.5m above the ground → Trick: Polish and paint the welds to disguise them as structural components
Ground anchors: → Drill holes and insert 30mm expansion bolts → Weld chain → Bury with cement → Anti-extraction: Bend the embedded chain into a hook shape

2. Lock Combinations

3. Environmental Interference

Light Trap: → Install a motion-sensing strobe light (120 decibels + 10,000 lumens) → Blinds thieves for 3 minutes
Ground-Based Trap: → Sprinkle triangular nails in the parking area (magnetically retractable for personal use) → Cover with canvas for camouflage
Scent Attack: → Spray pepper spray (contact capsaicin) on the car seat → Even gloves are affected

4. Camouflage

Garbage Invisibility: → Pile discarded tires/empty oil drums outside the car hood → Secure with straps to create a "junk pile"
Wrapping a Car: → Apply faded film to the car body + spray rust-spotted paint → Scratch the seat cushions and fill them with sponge
Electronic Camouflage: → Attach a used power bank + flashing LED → Disguise a GPS working light
