Depends on the reel but usually 19mm/21mm/25mm conduit clips.

i was using p clips but they kept breaking etc, ended up getting a pair of exhaust clamps off ebay and they are great, no movement after 2 months in use, where as the p clips would be bending etc.

I've got my hose reel fixed to a piece of aluminium chequer plate raised a couple of inches off the van floor.
I did originally use 22mm pipe fixings but they often broke.
So I tried doubled up cable ties (total=8) through drilled holes in the chequer plate and have had no problems since.

We use the pressure hose style reels which have a base plate so are bolted in.
When I had the petal style reel, they were mounted on a shelf and I used u-brackets for securing tv Ariel's - cost less than a quid each and we're shaped perfectly over the reel base
Got them from the hardware shop

H20 are you not able to put a heater in your van overnight ? I ask because of your previous post about making your pump quick release on cold nights ( how did that go ? ) . I previously used a redashe style reel bolted down but because it would freeze up overnight even with the hose drained as best I could, I have changed to a lightweight plastic reel for the winter, it's still floor mounted but quick release with 4 plastic 22mm pipe clips ( the type with catches on that can unclip ) so it is lightweight and easy to remove and take indoors at night.

Lighter pipe, take reel to job. Pipe remains stationary to ground so no wear and no snagging. Rewinding pipe when you walk back to van shouldn't be too much of a problem. Not an answer to your question but an idea for others to set up maybe.
