User questions & answers

Question:	What is the vertical distance from the top rim mounting holes to the Y-bracket mounting holes? Thanks
Answer:	The garage roof...I can send a pic...or I will just make my own bracket I guess
Question:	Will occasional -10 degrees effect this backboard
Answer:	I am not sure as we mounted it to an existing pole & had to do some extra work to make it fit.
Question:	Do I need to buy a separate mounting kit if I plan on mounting the goal/backboard on a wall
Answer:	Hello,We do sell mounting kits that will work to attach this to a 3.5" pole. They are models: 1044 & 9594.
Question:	what are the dimensions for rim to backboard mounting holes
Answer:	The Lifetime universal mount kit is clearly designed to fit the exact location of the two vertical supports on the back of the backboard, and fitting that was tough enough. So I doubt that another 'universal' kit would match the Lifetime design without some tinkering.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can a pole section be removed so height range is lower
Answer:	No, we do not recommend that.
Question:	Is the backboard acrylic and solid
Answer:	No the backboard is polycarbonate. It's pretty solid and plays OK, but does not have as much ball bounce back as acrylic.(3 mm Makrolon Polycarbonate with Fade-Resistant Graphics)Glass: the most professional and expensive of backboard materials. Glass provides the most bounce of backboard materials, allowing you to play like a pro.Acrylic: with more bounce than polycarbonate but less bounce than glass, acrylic is a good material for players of all levels.Polycarbonate: a durable and less expensive material with a bit less bounce than other materials. Polycarbonate is ideal for beginner or youth players.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work for a pool
Answer:	I would say you would likely have to mount it to something else and use the U brackets on that mount. The spacing for the bolts wouldn’t give you enough space to fit around a tether ball pole, let alone a basketball hoop pole.
Question:	I've purchased the hoop and thought we could install but we've changed our minds. How can I purchase expert assembly too
Answer:	Standard basketball is about 9.7 inches in diameter and the rim is about 12.6 inches in diameter.
Question:	Does a warranty come with this product
Answer:	It’s pretty sturdy. I wouldn’t think hanging a metal net would be a problem.
Question:	Does it come with a sleeve that goes into the ground or does it not need one
Answer:	2” vertical 3” horizontal

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the measurement from ground to the hardware behind the backboard

With the rim at 7’and 6” (lowest) that would put the lowest hardware behind the backboard at approximately 7’ and 1-1/2”. With the rim at 10’ (highest) it would put the lowest hardware behind the backboard at 9’ and 7-1/2”.
