Summary:An anchoring device 100 for attaching a membrane to a surface comprises a rigid bonding plate 105 having an outer rim 125, and a pliable fixing plate 110 secured beneath the bonding plate. The pliable fixing plate allows for attachment of the anchor to uneven surfaces. A hole 130 in the bonding plate gives access to the fixing plate for a fastener. The upper surface of the bonding plate has a bonding surface 135 coated in an adhesive. The fixing plate may be secured to the bonding plate at the outer rim, with the bonding plate folded over an end 145 of the fixing plate. The bonding surface may comprise a raised portion of the upper surface. The adhesive may be heat activated by inductive heating. The bonding plate may be formed from electrically conductive material such as steel. The fixing plate may be formed from non-electrically conductive material such as polyethylene. The bonding plate may be circular and the fixing plate may comprise an aperture 150 for receiving the fastener.
