Product Description

Plenty of Room

The 12' X 12' X 55' batting cage and frame has plenty of room inside for your pitching machine. At the same time, it is small enough for most yards to fit with room to spare.

Practice Makes Perfect!

Get out there every day and get in those at-bats and pitches! Every little bit helps, and with the accessibility to practice you get with your own batting cage you have the opportunity to improve faster than the competition.

Hanging Loose

When hanging your batting cage make sure it hangs below the upper supports, as pictured, and has slack at the bottom. This allows the batting cage to properly absorb impacts and last longer!

Batter Up!

This batting cage has been up for three years running, during the spring and summer, and thanks in part to the vinyl backstop (sold separately), it is still holding up phenomenally.

Kit Does NOT Include the Following Parts: (CL) 10' 6" Length Top Rail Pipe 29 pcs. NOT INCLUDED, Vinyl Backstop, Pitching Machine, and L-Screen (Pictured); Includes EZ Up & Down Kit and Batting Cage Net

Our reasoning for not including the 10' 6" Top Rail Pipe is that they are very expensive to ship. We could cut them down, and include connector fittings, but that would weaken your EZ Up & Down Batting Cage Frame compared to the current design with the 10' 6" Top Rail Pipe, and it would be more work to assemble. This way we can get you the best product in the most economical way possible.

Frame Kit Instructions:

Your four corner Ground Sockets center to center will be 56' x 13' Lay this out with stakes, string, and a tape measure. Measure across both diagonals to make sure they measure the same so that everything is square. The diagonals should be about 57’ 6" across.
Use the Auger bit to drill the four corner holes. Don't push down too hard on the bit or it will not remove the excess dirt as you go. Let it dig. It works very well. Let it drill down a bit then back it out allowing the bit to clear the hole of excess dirt. Repeat until the hole is deep enough. You will have a 12" deep hole in a minute or two. If you run into rocks or roots you can also use a 6' long bar to make the pilot holes.
Take one of the Short Net Hangers and wrap it around each Ground Socket and back through itself. Install the corner Ground Sockets using the Installation Tool and a rubber mallet. The top of the Ground Socket should be flush with the ground.
Now use the Auger Bit and the same process to install the Ground Sockets evenly spaced at 11' 2", 22' 4", 33' 6", and 44' 8".
Assemble (D) 30" pipes to 12 of the (CL) 10' 6" long vertical poles by drilling a small hole, then inserting self-drilling screws (E). These will serve as your vertical poles.
Install the four pcs. of (A) Three-Way Fittings, and the eight pcs. (B) Four-Way Fittings onto the 30" side of the vertical poles you just assembled. One fitting per pole. Make sure to loosen the eye bolts on the fittings so that you won't have to later. Put the 12 pcs (CL) top rail pipe with the fittings side up into the (H) ground sockets.
Assemble 30" Pipe Extensions (C) to six of the (CL) 10' 6" length poles by drilling a small hole, then inserting Self Drilling Screws (E). These will serve as the center sections of the frame connecting the two long sides of the frame. Assemble five pcs of (CL) and a 54" piece of pipe (you will have to cut it to this size), the total length should be 56'. Drill holes to attach these pipes together, but wait to insert screws until the pipes are inserted in the frame in the air. Repeat this with another five pieces of (CL) and another 54" pipe on the other long side.
Using a ladder install the center sections with attached pipe extensions from step seven into the fittings. Once installed tighten the eyebolts in the center.
Using a ladder install the remaining pipe on the long sides of the frame, these pipes should slide through the four-way fittings. Each time you connect two pipes together place a screw in the hole you previously drilled, securing the pipes to one another.
Use a level to adjust the vertical poles as needed to make them level. Then tighten the rest of the eyebolts, and get ready to hang your net.

How to Hang Your Batting Cage Net

Lay your batting cage inside the frame. Find the batting cage net's door and make sure it is on the end of the frame you want. Then attach a Carabiner Clip to each of the Pulleys, and lay out each of the Long Net Hangers so they are easy to access.
Using a ladder attach a Pulley with a Carabiner to each of the center top eyebolts of the Four-Way Fittings. Now attach a Pulley to the top outside eyebolt on each of the Three-Way Fittings. These are to hang the net from.
Attach the remaining Pulleys to the center lower eyebolt on the Three-Way Corner Fittings, and one on the four-way fitting that is on the third pole from the end. These are to lift the bottom of the net for easy mowing.
Now start at a corner and with one of the Long Net Hangers. Wrap the end of a net hanger without the knot through the top border of the net at the corner of the batting cage (Thicker rope at the top of the net) and back through itself. This is similar to a prusik knot. It is important that the end you pull through is the end without the knot, as this will be going through a pulley in the next step.
Run the other end of the Net Hanger through the top Pulley, attach a carabiner clip to the net hanger, and pull it down until you can attach it to the Small Net Hanger that is attached to the Ground Socket. Then repeat this for the remaining three corners.
Using enough Long Net Hangers to install one on each of the Four-Way Fittings, use the same method to attach a Hanger to the top border rope of the net. Run the Hanger through the top Pulley and pull down to attach to the Hanger on the Socket.
Use the remaining Long Net Hangers and attach them to the bottom border of the net in the four corners. Run the Hanger up through the lower Pulley and attach a Carabiner Clip to the end you just pulled through the Pulley. This will stop the Net Hanger from pulling back through the Pulley.
Using the remaining Short Net Hangers attach the center of the net to the center poles inside the frame.
Now attach all the top rope, center rope, and bottom ropes (three foot ropes coming off each corner of the net) to their respective corners and centers. NOTE: Do Not Over Tighten. The net should be loose to allow for absorption of the ball impact.
To raise up for easy mowing untie the bottom rope corners and simply pull the Hangers attached to the bottom of the net down until you can attach them to the Net Hangers on the Ground Sockets.

This kit was exactly what it was supposed to be, it made building the batting cage very easy. The instructions were a bit vague in some areas, but my wife and I were able to figure the gray areas out pretty easily.

We love the batting cage. My son has spent many hours in it. The only down side is we had no idea how many poles we still had to purchase or how expensive that was going to be. We did find in small print we had to buy some but beware it is still a significant amount is money before you can use the cage. But as for what came in the box it works great and was fairly easy to install.

The quality of the structure is mediocre (ex. eyebolt broke during installation), the net is pretty good, and the installation instructions are abysmal (which is weird because it doesn't cost them anything to put better instructions together...) If you are handy, I recommend starting from scratch.

Very happy with this purchase. The product was quality, and all parts were included. It took about 4 hours for my wife and I to setup. There is a video on YouTube that shows how to do the setup also. That was very helpful to visualize how to complete the setup. Thanks for a great product. I would definitely buy it again.

Sturdy and leaves plenty of space to swing away without contacting the net. The assembly instructions are okay, but will have you up and down the ladder more than necessary. Be sure to read all the way through the instructions with parts in front of you, and youâ€™ll know where you can combine steps.Also, if you donâ€™t have a perfectly flat surface, this may very well still work for you. Youâ€™re going to have to put some effort into getting the poles into the brackets. Not easy, but very doable.

Just finished putting up the frame kit BY MYSELF ! no help at all. Was a little confused trying to get it square when I laid it out so I used all of the 10 foot poles on the ground as a template to see how it looked. That actually took the most time. You get absolutely everything you need for assembly. Great product !

Itâ€™s just what we needed to practice at home. Itâ€™s not that hard to assemble, youâ€™ll need a ladder and 2 people.
