The remaining three steel bars are fixated in the loops below.

To insert the steel bars in the loops, it is recommended that one fixation strap is inside the container door opening, and the other strap is hanging outside the door opening.

When all steel bars are inserted in loops, it is easy to lift the fixation strap hanging outside the container door, and place it at proper place inside the container
