    Whether the gymnasium in your facility is old or new, it is guaranteed to have unique design nuances that can at times, make planning for new equipment challenging. When it comes to planning the replacement of existing basketball systems or the implementation of new ones, there are many factors that come into play.

    In addition to space restrictions, facility managers must first identify the intended use of the basketball systems to be installed. Depending on the size of the gym, many facilities offer full-sized basketball courts, cross-court basketball systems or a combination of the two. When planning the design of new basketball systems, we first must identify how many will be required and where they will be placed.

    It is at this point where the real planning begins, and depending on your experience, you might require an on-site consultation by one of our professionally trained and experienced installation technicians. It is these esteemed members of our organization that will truly assess your needs and make recommendations based on their findings and the unique design of your facility.

    As for the types of installations we offer our customers, here are a few of our more popular options, each with the ability to be customized to fit your facility perfectly.

    Wall-Mounted Systems

    Generally speaking, these systems are used for cross-court action and smaller basketball court designs. As the title suggests, these systems are configured to attach to the wall surface using our bracket system.

    These are available in a stationary design, meaning their position is fixed, or in a folding design, allowing you to move them out of the way when not in use. The folding designs include both side-folding and swing-up designs to give your gym the space it needs for other athletic activities and non-sporting events.

    Ceiling-Suspended Systems

    Hanging high above the crowd in the rafters of many gymnasiums you will find our ceiling-suspended products. These are perhaps your most versatile choice when it comes to configuration as we have spent the better part of 35 years perfecting their designs.

    After observing a wide range of facilities over the years, we proudly manufacture and customize a number of different ceiling-suspended basketball configurations. Depending on the space allotted surrounding the basketball system, these systems are available in stationary, side folding, and forward folding, with a number of different bracing options.
