PORTABLE BATTING CAGE WITH L-SCREEN. THE MOST AFFORDABLE AND FLEXIBLE BATTING CAGE AVAILABLE TODAY
Save hundreds on our batting cages over the competition's. We did some price comparison shopping on the internet. Shipping is hard to figure. Most companies don't tell you what it is or wait until you "check out" to tell you. It is also difficult to compute the total cost of a cage. Most companies have unbundled pricing and sell "net only" so trying to compare apples to apples is difficult. Find out the complete cost of a cage before you buy. The poles used on our cages are 3/4" EMT (electrical metallic tubing), trade name "thin wall." These are steel galvanized pipe and are standard 10' long, you don't have to cut or bend them, they are ready to go off the shelf.
FEATURES
* Affordable - Priced with the family in mind -- a 50' cage with #21 netting is only $725. This price includes netting, connectors, L-screen, all hardware and shipping. No installation kits to buy, cement to pour, or holes to dig. You’ll need to go to Home Depot or any building supply store and purchase 3/4” EMT. Each pole costs between $3.00 and $4.00. You will need 28 poles for the 50 foot cage, 33 poles for the 60 foot cage and 38 poles for the 70 foot cage.
* Durable - The system is stable and safe. The nylon netting is made in the USA. It is strong, UV protected, and will last for years. The #21 gauge has a burst strength of 200 pounds per strand or about 800 pounds per mesh (diamond).
* Portable - Unlike other cages, this system is PORTABLE! Two people can put up the cage in about 30 minutes, my son and I have put it up in fifteen minutes. This works out great for a team practice. With help from your team, it will go up in minutes! It comes down in even less time. The L-screen is portable too. It's support legs come off and the screen folds in half.
* Flexible - Put up as few or as many sections as you like, up to the length of your cage. Each section is 10' long. It automatically fits the contour of your ground, which does not have to be level. It can be adjusted to fit narrower confines and can even be tapered to fit odd shaped spaces.
* Versatile - Indoors or outdoors. Not only does it make a great outdoor batting cage, but it can be taken indoors during inclement weather or during winter to keep your players in shape. Utilize existing space and create an extra hitting station.
DETAILS
* Dimensions - The cage is trapezoidal in shape: 10' tall, 10' wide at the top, and about 14' wide at the bottom. The poles are 3/4" EMT - Electrical Metallic Tubing. The poles are 10' long steel galvanized pipe and available at hardware and electrical supply stores such as Home Depot. The L-screen is 6.5' tall by 7' wide with a 3'x3.5' cutout.
* Netting - The netting is 1 7/8" knotted nylon mesh. The #21 is rated at 200 lb. breaking strength per cord or 800 lb. per mesh. The netting hangs on the diamond, not on the square. This allows for more give when hit by a ball so there is less chance for tear and less abrasion. It also allows water to run-off more quickly. All netting is made in the USA. The netting perma-black is product of Solutia, formerly Monsanto. One of the most important aspects of quality netting for batting cages is its tenacity. It should have a tenacity of at least 8.0. Perma-black netting has a tenacity of at least 9. Beware of any netting not made in the USA. It normally does not have the durability or tenacity of netting made in the USA.
* UV Protection - The netting is dipped in a black latex vinyl for protection from weather and UV. Unlike other cage companies, our netting is dipped after the knots are made. This sets the knots so they won't come undone.
* Less Sag - Another advantage of our design over the traditional netting is it has much less sag. With our ten foot sections and the fact that the netting is hung over the frame means considerably less sag, only a few inches rather than feet. Traditional cages normally have only three or four frames to support the netting. The weight of the netting causes tremendous sag, in some cases 2-3' of sag. It is not uncommon for a 12' high traditional cage to only have 9' of height clearance. Look at some of the pictures on the web and see. Most of the time the other cage manufacturers will only display drawings of their netting, of course with no sag!
