SHOULD YOU MOUNT A BASKETBALL BACKBOARD TO YOUR ROOF?

Autumn is finally here, and you know what that means: fall colors, cooler
temperatures, the holiday season, National Ergonomics Month, and basketball!

Hoops fans love watching games both in person and on TV. Many of them will watch
any type of basketball – NBA, college, high school, women’s, elementary school,
whatever. And some of them like to imagine themselves scoring the winning bucket
in the biggest game of the year – without leaving their driveway.


Score!!!

For these folks, a home basketball goal may be ideal. But what are some of the
issues involved with putting one up?

Pole or No Pole?

The first decision you must make whether the basket and backboard will be
freestanding or mounted. It’s recommended that you check with your neighborhood
association or municipality to see if either type of arrangement is prohibited
(which would make your choice an easy one). If you have the option, you should
ask yourself these questions:

 

 * Will a tall a pole block vehicle access in the driveway?
 * Does the rim height need to be adjustable to accommodate children of various
   age groups?
 * Do you want to simply shoot baskets, or would you rather have a court on
   which to play pickup games?
 * Is the noise of the bouncing ball going to be an issue for you or your
   neighbors?
 * On what part of your driveway is the surface the flattest? (You should place
   your basketball goal there.)

Two for one: family bonding and life lessons in competition!

Where Will You Put It?

If you feel that a permanently-mounted basketball goal works best for your
needs, the next step is to determine precisely where on your property it will
go. The most common spot is above the garage doors so that the driveway can be
used as a makeshift court. But the goal can also be placed on the side of a
house facing the driveway, the side of a second-story deck or balcony, or a
freestanding carport or shed. If there are multiple options on your property,
start by asking yourself where errant shots may be likely to end up. Locations
near windows, gutters, neighboring properties, gardens, or other vulnerable
areas may be less preferable.

Mounting Tips

Now comes the challenging part: how to mount the basketball goal so that it
withstands everything that is thrown at it. Here are some suggestions:



 * Read the installation instructions carefully before lifting any tools. The
   last thing you want is to have to undo some work because you didn’t know what
   was supposed to come next.
 * If mounting on a roof, locate one of the roof studs (using a stud finder if
   necessary). Attach the mounting bracket of the backboard to one of those
   studs.
 * Use a pencil or marker to mark the holes into which you will drill the bolts
   into the studs.
 * Apply liberal amounts of roof cement in the holes in order to prevent leaks
   when rainwater falls on the roof.
 * Measure the height of the rim from the ground before you permanently affix
   the backboard to the roof.

Fun for all!

And one last thing: if you put up a basketball goal of any kind at your house,
be prepared to become one of the more popular homeowners on the block –
especially if there are kids (or even adults) who love basketball as much as you
do. Because you may just have frequent visitors who BYOB (Bring Your Own
Basketball) and start shooting around. Such is the burden of a basketball lover
with his/her own basketball hoop!

1 MILLION+ SATISFIED CUSTOMERS NATIONWIDE

Gutter Helmet by Harry Helmet just replaced our roof and we could not be more
satisfied. The crew showed up early, worked all day and stayed late, were
professional and caring regarding the project and the surrounding impact it had
on our property and home. They completed the roof quickly and it looks simply
amazing!

Geneviene A.
VERY happy with our entire experience adding Gutter Helmet by Harry Helmet to
our house. Installing this was a great value for us. The gutters are working
perfectly in heavy downpours and with year-long leaves and debris coming down
from our river birches. Terrific customer service and a first class product.

Dara Schechter
We needed our roof repaired due to wind damage. After several quotes, Gutter
Helmet was the only company that went into our attic to look and see if more
damage had occurred. If it wasn't for them taking the extra time to look at
everything, we would have had rotting wood under our new roof. They were very
professional and gave a fair quote.

Stanley Welle
We just had Gutter Helmet installed on our gutters and couldn't be happier. They
provided us with useful information about Gutter Helmet and cleaned up
everything, leaving no mess behind. We definitely recommend Gutter Helmet to
anyone considering this product.

Susan Boone
I recently had the Gutter Helmet by Harry Helmet installed on my house. It not
only looks amazing, but the guys arrived on time, were professional and
efficiently got the job done. I am very satisfied with Gutter Helmet's attention
to detail and fulfilling their work as promised. I will definitely tell my
neighbors about the Gutter Helmet.

Lloyd Higgins
I have had Gutter Helmets for 20 years. In all that time I've never had a
problem until recently a bird's nest found its way into one of my gutters. The
installer who came to replace the product was the same installer from 20 years
earlier. Now that's impressive. Everyone at Gutter Helmet inclusive of the
office staff were professional and a pleasure to work with.
