Time to get my bikes secure in the garage. Are these the people to go to for an anchor / chain / padlock combo?

Yes, I bought that package earlier this year. Chain, anchor and padlock are seriously beefy.

If it's for a push bike the 19mm chain is far too big and heavy as the links are as big as your hand and would damage a bikes frame etc

I have bought the 13mm chain and that's big and strong enough when used with a good anchor

That's nonsense, you must also have very small hands. I use two 19mm chains on 2 different bikes and it won't damage a bike unless you start swinging it about.

No pedals also slows them down a bit.
