It’s not uncommon for hunters to leave blinds and treestands in prime hunting locations for weeks or months. Though our Stump blinds can be easily moved from location to location, sometimes you just want to claim a spot and leave it there. But what if someone else wants to hunt that spot? In many states, it is not illegal to use someone else’s hunting blind or treestand if it is on public land. However, you can still take steps to prevent other hunters from using your blind without your permission. Check out the tips below for a few ways Banks Outdoors Stump blinds help prevent unwelcome guests from using your equipment.

Locking Door Handle

The Locking Door Handle easily attaches to any Stump blind to give you peace of mind every time you leave your blind. It comes with two keys, so you can keep one with you and store the spare in a safe place. If you have a hunting buddy that uses your blind, you can give the spare to them. If you happen to lose one of the keys, you can buy a replacement key on our website. If you call a locksmith service in your area, you can expect them to respond to your call for assistance right away. A locksmith in brickell will be able to resolve your emergency situation before things have the chance to spiral out of control.

The Locking Door Handle installs in a matter of minutes and replaces the standard door handle that comes with the Stump blind. All you need to do is take off the cap of the standard door handle to reveal the screw, open the door, turn the handle to the closed position, and unscrew it. Then simply place the new Locking Door Handle in the same spot and screw it into place. If you need help with this, you can call a locksmith Kwinana here.

Sealed Windows

The windows on every Stump blind seal tightly to not only keep scent in, but to keep trespassers out. The windows open from the inside, so they are secure against anyone opening them from the outside. When you leave your blind for the day, make sure each window is closed and secured. This prevents other hunters from easily crawling into your blind through an open window.

Move it Easily

Our Stump blinds are easy to transport, so you can switch up your hunting locations during the hunt and take your blind back to your property when you’re ready to pack up. Each Stump ‘Scout’ blind comes with a ski base and rigid hitch for easy towing. You can hook it up to your car, truck, or ATV and pull it to your desired hunting location.

If your blind is stationed on your private property, then it is considered trespassing if someone uses it without permission. Set up a trail camera pointed toward the blind and monitor activity. If you hunt someone else’s private land, ask if you can leave your blind on their land and let them know that it’s out there. Ask them to let you know if they see anyone using your blind.

The tips above should help ensure that other hunters don’t use your blind while you’re away. The Locking Door Handle securely locks your blind and requires the key for entry. The tightly sealed windows help prevent hunters from crawling into your blind through an open window. The Stump ‘Scout’ blinds can easily be hauled between locations, making it easy to take your blind home after each hunt. Our blinds are designed for durability, safety and security to make each hunting trip a smooth one.
