Garage D-ring Bike Locking Station
Get Your Stuff Together
For tools: You're gonna need a drillbit a drill a ratchet or an impact driver and a 9/16 socket.
Other materials:
Lag bolts 2 that match your d ring procured from your local hardware store
D-ring from your local Homeless Despot hardwear shoppe.
(I chose a biggie D ring cuz, well, it looks impressive)
This whole locking system is mostly to deter people who want a bike quick. You could add tamper proof bolts instead if you wanted.

Find Where the Studs in Your Walls Are
And mark them. You can tap on the wall with your knuckle, guess, use a stud finder or you can see where the walls are held on by fasteners and assume there's a stud behind there somewhere...

I used a 1/4 inch drill bit.

This Isn't Gonna Work.
I'm pretty sure my granny could rip those screws out easy peasy
After the Pilot Holes Are Drilled
Use your ratchet or impact driver to put the lag bolts in bolting your loop to the wall
Should Look Like This
Make sure it's not upside down. If the loop is hanging on the top side of the strap you've got a gravity problem.
Done!
Now you have a more secure way to lock up your bike in your garage or carport!
