Mine isn't bolted to the floor. If I'm by my self, which I usually am, I have a couple of buckets with close to 100-200# of wheel weights. I just place the buckets on one side or the other of the chalk depending if I'm entering or leaving it. The only pain is moving the buckets around.
I cut a short piece of 2X10 and laid it on the floor between the wall and the chock, or find a spot you can buck it up against the wall directly, only need support to keep it from sliding forward when you are pulling into it, to come out I give it a push forward to compress the forks a little, when it springs back it provides some momentum when you ****** it out, while seated on the bike.
I've got 2 of those, try adjusting the bolt holes, it makes a big difference. One is bolted into the trailer no problems. The one I have in my garage slid around on the epoxied floor. Since I move it around frequently, bolting it to the floor wasn't an option. I put a piece of scrap siding under it and use the weight of the bike to hold it in place.
