Hang Batting Cage in Building

Having an indoor batting cage can be extremely useful for baseball and softball players. It can come in handy for individuals, teams or exercise facilities. Hanging your own batting cage in a building, however, can be difficult without any knowledge or equipment. With the right equipment, tools and steps, you can have a batting cage at your disposal.

Attach the eye bolts to your gym walls. Arrange these eye bolts at either end of your gym 1/2 of overall tunnel width apart.

Attach the horizontal cables between the eyebolts.

Attach the vertical cables by attaching the vertical cable lengths to metal snap rings before snapping onto horizontal cable at ceiling. Make sure you place end of cable through snap ring and bring back along side. Tighten using cable clamp.

Do this again for the opposite end of the vertical cable using 30 plastic snap hooks, making sure that you allow for the slope of the net (middle of the net higher than sides) and allowing for 1 1/2 inches of netting to rest on gym floor.

Hang your net by attaching the net's thick Poly- Dac rope to the vertical cables by opening the snap hook and inserting the rope. This should be done every 7 feet for a 70-foot cage.

To store your net, simply slide it along the cables to side wall.
