Backyard Backup Netting Systems

The 7/8 inch mesh is designed for smaller balls like baseballs or golf balls, while the 4 inch mesh is better suited for larger sports balls like soccer, volleyball, or basketballs. Choosing the right size ensures the ball is caught effectively without unnecessary wind resistance.

Steel posts offer superior strength and rigidity for high-impact sports, making them ideal for permanent installations. Aluminum is lighter and naturally resistant to rust, which is a better choice if you live in a coastal area or a region with extremely high humidity.

This system requires a significant installation effort because the posts must be buried 4 feet deep to ensure stability. You will need to dig post holes and likely use concrete to secure them, so plan for a full day of labor or consider professional installation.

Yes, the system includes carbon pulleys and vertical cables that allow you to adjust the height of the net. This feature is particularly useful if you want to lower the net when not in use or during severe weather conditions.

The materials are designed to withstand outdoor conditions, including sun exposure and rain. However, for the longest lifespan, we recommend lowering the net during the off-season or when extreme storms are forecasted to reduce wear and tear.
