PickleballCentral Heavy-Duty Permanent Pickleball Net Posts
The PickleballCentral Heavy-Duty Pickleball Net Posts offer a long-lasting pickleball court setup and are designed to be set semi-permanently into the ground. These posts feature a removeable external crank-and-ratchet reel system for adjusting the tension of the net, and are intended for use with the PickleballCentral Pickleball Net (31" height) or the PickleballCentral Pickleball Net (36" height).
The PickleballCentral Heavy-Duty Net Posts boast 1/4" thick steel walls, a 2 7/8" diameter, and measure 54" tall. Included are two adjustable collars for securing the posts at the correct height. The net posts should rest no more than 1" above the net cord and maintain a height of about 3' above the court surface.
If you intend to remove the Heavy-Duty Net Posts on occasion, consider purchasing a set of PVC Sleeves specifically designed for use with the PickleballCentral Heavy-Duty Net Posts, which are installed during court construction and allow for easier removal.
IMPORTANT: We recommend reading through all installation instructions and checking final height and width measurements prior to permanent installation. The PickleballCentral Pickleball Net measures 21' 9" wide and net posts should be placed 22' 2 7/8" apart (center to center). This will make the distance the USAPA regulation of 22' measured from inside of post to inside of post. Do not install posts at 22 feet or net will not fit correctly. Pickleball Central cannot accept returns or refund due to improper installation. Net not included.

PickleballCentral Heavy-Duty Pickleball Net Posts
Reviewer: Margaret Zimmerman from Bear Lake, MI United States
Installation went great with PVC sleeves that can be screw-capped closed when we remove the equipment for the winter months. Next year we may have to order another set and stripe a 2nd court!

Installation:
PickleballCentral Heavy-Duty Pickleball Posts are compatible with the PickleballCentral Pickleball Net (31" height) or the PickleballCentral Pickleball Net (36" height) and are intended to be permanently embedded into the ground. The footings should be a minimum of 3' 6" below the surface or to the local frost depth. The PickleballCentral Pickleball Net is 21' 9" in length. To allow for the proper fitting and correct tension of the net, the center of the footings should be placed 22' 2 7/8" apart (center to center). This will make the distance the USAPA regulation of 22' measured from inside of post to inside of post. Do not install posts at 22 feet or net will not fit correctly. Please be sure to check final height and width measurements prior to permanent installation. Make sure the posts rest no higher than 1" above the net cord, at a height of about 3' above the court surface. Use the included collars to set the correct height. Post Sleeves (sold separately) are recommended as they allow for easy removal of the posts for resurfacing, maintenance, repair, replacement, and alternate uses of the court. During off-season or when winterizing, it is best to remove the posts and plug the sleeves with sleeve covers to prevent moisture and dirt from entering the sleeves.
