subject: In Ground Basketball Hoop Qualities [print this page] Are you thinking about purchasing an in ground basketball for your driveway? It can be a very good investment for a family who is into sports. It's a great reason for children to get outdoors and do some physical activity, plus it can involves socializing with others. Here are some of the advantages that an in ground system has.
Stability
First of all, compared to other options, in ground basketball hoops are a lot sturdier and solid. Though a mounted system can be quite stable as well, it's not always practical to install a hoop on the side of a house or on a garage. There is nothing quite like cementing a hoop into the ground as far as performance is concerned.
Durability
What's more, they are long lasting. And since they are held by a strong pole, you can be confident that they are only constructed from very strong materials. Thick, glass backboards and four to eight inch poles can survive a very long time.
Real Estate Value
If you install a high quality in ground basketball hoop, it could add some value to your property. A quality system could make your home more attractive to those who enjoy outdoor activities. On the flip side, a mounted hoop probably won't make much of a difference. And a portable hoop would most likely be taken with should you relocate.
If you buy a system with an anchor mount, then you can remove it if desired. The direct burial installation is the most permanent kind, in which the pole is directly inserted into the ground.
You may never consider a basketball hoop as an asset capable of raising the value of your home, but it very well could if it's high quality and something the family is interested in.
Authenticity
An in ground hoop allows for the most realistic play, particularly if you have a good driveway or playing area. If you wish to have a professional goal installed, this process is quite easier compared to mounted ones.
Adjustable
Finally, many high-quality in-ground basketball hoops are adjustable. That means that you can change it from one height to another, depending on whether it's a child or an adult that is going to play. The hoop will therefore grow as your children do.
Now you know the reasons why in ground systems are preferred by most. Be sure to buy from a reputable seller before making any decisions.
