Basic-Grade Kit (no anchor hardware):

*For use with single lane (10'/12'/14'W) tunnel, 55'L
or shorter
The Basic Kit is optimal for lighter-weight batting
cage nets in combination with center vertical support points, or within a short
gym distance i.e. #21 gauge netting over 60' or shorter span -- if spanning
longer, additional vertical drop-points will be required. NO anchor hardware
is included with the Basic Kit.
Our Wall CurtainCages include 3 linear cables which run the same
height as your net. The cables attach to turn-buckles, which attach to eye-bolts
or steel face plates, which anchor into your wall or structure. Steel snaps
attach the cable lines to the top of your tunnel, creating a "curtain effect"
- allowing your tunnel to curtain to either side of your facility, "bungied"
up against the wall, approximately 2-3' feet from the wall.
Bottom-Line: A Wall CurtainCage results in less overall
sag and has more of a "boxy" look than a Ceiling CurtainCage, due
to the net being attached directly to the linear cables every 24". Just
remember you will have 3 cables which run overhead at the same height as your
net, unless you remove them each time. If you need to maximize your over-head
space, you will want to consider a Ceiling
CurtainCage or a Wind-Up
Winch CurtainCage.
Parts List:
- (3) 60' Rolls of 1/8" Aircraft Cable: Galvanized coated (Lengthwise attachment)
- (3) Turnbuckles: 6" x 3/8" Jaw-Jaw Galvanized Steel (One end of each cable)
- (12) 1/8" Cable-Clamps: Galvanized Steel (Secures cable ends)
- (55) Steel-Snaps (Attaches 3 cable lines to top of net every 3' for 55'
net)
Note: If you don't have solid anchor points, you can only
put so much tension on your cable lines without reinforced anchors. Unless you
have a very light-weight net, the result of this is either a large amount of
sag, or pulling your eye-bolts out of the wall - or both. So if you don't have
"back-side" wall access to mount a large anchor washer or plate, you may want
to consider our Commercial or Pro Kits, which include Steel
Mounting Plates.
