Basketball Backboard Wall Mount Install The Equipment

However, it is possible to mount a basketball backboard to a wall on the outside of your house or on the wall above your garage.

Some are made of glass, while others are made of fiberglass, aluminum or acrylic.

Higher quality backboards require more advanced devices to connect them to the wall, while lesser quality backboards can simply be mounted easily.

Wherever you choose to attach it, the wall must be completely straight, void of any angles or slopes.

The best surface for the ground, in order to dribble the basketball effectively, is concrete or asphalt.

Instructions for how to install the equipment should come with your purchase.

There will be pre-drilled holes in the backboard for where to place the hoop.

If you are using a mounting bracket, attach the board using bolts, nuts and washers.

Tighten every bolt securely to ensure that the backboard will not move at all.

If you are attaching it directly to a wall, use the pre-drilled holes in the backboard to drill it into the wall.

Screws must be inserted into the holes and tightened using a drill.

Do not skip any loops or you will have to start the process over.

Tips Have a second person help you install the backboard or spot you, in case the backboard falls.
