Weighing down Steps

[Poolidiot]

Well when I got my steps a couple years ago, I scrached my head trying to figure a good way you put sand "bags" to weigh them down, and finally what I did was, I bought regular bags of sand at lowes, then I went online and bought the water bags that people use with inground pools to put on the edge of the cover to hold them down, I then poured the sand (NOTwater) in the water bags and they have a cap to close them with, they are water tight and water proof.. Works great.

I had lots of plastic coated barbell weights around that I wasn't using anymore so I used them in the steps. Used 50 lbs.
I figured they would be easier to grab to get out next fall too.
