Batting Cage Construction Tips
Help Make Your Construction Go Smoother
Batting cage construction does not have to be a long drawn out, costly, and painful experience. Building a batting cage can be a relatively easy project with proper planning and the right equipment to do the project. With the right approach you can build your batting cage in 1/2 day. It may take longer if you install a cement floor but that would be the only thing that would cause the project to take days instead of hours. Here I offer 10 important tips that you should consider during the planning phase of your batting cage construction.
1. Draw a plan showing the size and dimensions of your cage in the chosen location. Do this to make sure that you have chosen the best location. Batting cage construction requires a level area at least 2 feet longer and wider that your batting cage net.
2. Make sure you consider the sun's angles, access to power, and ground drainage when you chose or prepare your area.
3. Make a materials list that includes every component of the net and cage you are installing including the net, frame pieces, and hardware. Also make a list of the tools and equipment that you will need to complete your batting cage construction.
4. If your chosen area is prone to be wet during certain times of the year, you should elevate your cage floor to make sure that your cage floor is well drained. You can use a cement floor or simply "frame" in an area and fill it with a couple inches of crushed stone, dirt, or clay.
5. Choose your frame system carefully. Make sure that the frame structure you build or construct is adequate to support the weight of your net.
