    Abstract: A series of screw-type anchors are set around the periphery of the structure. The anchors are set below the ground surface and enclosed in recess pots to provide access, helping to keep soil from covering the anchors. When a storm is predicted, a plurality of straps are passed over the roof and hooked into the anchors. The straps have a ratchet at one end to tighten the straps and provide tension to the roof. Gutter guards are optionally provided to protect a gutter from damaged by the straps. Ridge vent guards are also optionally provided to protect a ridge vent from damage by the straps. Recess pot covers are provided to reduce the chances of tripping.
