TOP TETHER ANCHOR POINTS

Anchor Point Installation For Baby Seats

It is a legal requirement in Australia that top tether anchor points are used for child seats. There have been numerous studies conducted into the impact caused by a vehicle accident with and without top tethers. 

All studies have found that the use of a top tether on a child seat greatly reduces the trauma in a motor vehicle accident.
The best way to locate the top tether anchors is to look for this symbol. The location can vary greatly across various makes and models.

If the logo is not clearly marked it is best to refer to the vehicle’s manual for the exact location. It is important that if you are not completely sure, to consult an expert. It is a common mistake that people use a cargo tie down. Cargo tie downs are not rated to anywhere near the load capacity that anchors are required to hold under the nominated legislation.

If you operate a commercial vehicle, have an SUV that requires baby seats in the 3rd row or simply have an old classic that does not have existing anchor points we can help.

There are numerous cheap (and non-compliant) work arounds posted on the web but most of these do not comply with the National code of practice Vehicle Standards Bulletin 5 which pertains to the Manufacture and installation of additional seats.

Australian Design Rules (ADR) more specifically ADR34 legislates that after-market Child restraints meet the strict position and load calculations. 

Through internal research and development, we have designed individual custom solutions for a select range of vehicles. Through testing and development there are some vehicles that we simply cannot find a solution that meets required standards.
