Roof mounted retractable basketball goals

We manufacture a range of roof mounted basketball goals that retract into the roof space for storage. Our most popular single stem goal features a single boom that hinges at the back and in play is ideally 60 (but up to 65 where needed) degrees from the horizontal.

If there are particular space issues in your facility that mean our standard goal does not fit, we have a range of alternative backward or forward folding goals and trackway mounted goals for specific situations.

All of these basketball goals are mounted onto secondary steelwork installed by the Main Contractor. The drawings available here show generic details of our steelwork requirements and the exact height, length and location depends on the specific aspects of your facility so please do not install any secondary steelwork prior to confirmation that it is suitable so we can ensure you have correctly interpreted our drawings.

The most common problem we encounter with sports hall design is facilities that want to specify roof mounted basketball goals but do not build the building high enough to accomodate the secondary steelwork and folded goal above their clear height requirement. We have shown on SH-02 the minimum heights that the secondary steelwork must be installed to allow for the two most common clear height targets of 7500mm and 9000mm. Please also note that for electrically winched goals we mount the winch on the steelwork and the steels must therefore be hung below the rafters in the hall with space above for mounting of the winch.

For electrically operated goals we provide one remote control single-phase electric winch per goal. Each winch has a keyfob and a wall fixed wireless remote control. Each winch requires a 13amp single phase power supply (by others) to a location in front of the winch. If a 3-pin socket is provided our installers can plug in the winch. If a fused spur is provided then the customer must provide an electrician to wire up the winch to the fused spur as we do not provide an electrician.

Please refer to our electrically operated basketball goal information pack for more information on the necessary electrical provision.

We always recommend our usual single boom type goals, but for special circumstances we also offer electrically operated forward or rearward folding goals as shown on SH-10.
