Steel System F5™ 655 Outdoor Fixed Basketball Hoop

Description

These Basketball Systems are the best in its class for ultimate durability and play.

The Douglas® F5™ Basketball Systems are the best for ultimate durability and play. The system boasts the high-quality features of the adjustable series in a fixed version, making it an ideal choice for institutional applications such as neighborhood parks, municipalities, school playgrounds, and anywhere else an adjustable system is not desired or needed. The fixed system was designed with safety in mind, with a uniquely angled 5’ extension arm that allows for the maximum safe-play area and minimizes any potential contact with the extension mount.

Rectangular Steel 42″ x 60″ Backboard

The durable 42”x 60” rectangular steel backboard has a 12 gauge steel shell with a white powder coat finish and an orange-printed target and border. The board has an integral reinforced steel channel on the reverse side for mounting and increased board support.

Pressure Flex Breakaway Goal

The stress of heavy, unsupervised play and aggressive dunks are no match for Douglas® Basketball Systems’ durability and performance. Constructed of robust steel with a CSPC-compliant powder-coat finish and featuring a 5/8” thick, 18” steel rim and a double spring pressure flex breakaway mechanism, our recreational breakaway goal attaches to the backboard and directly to the extension arm. The rim has a unique hidden net attachment style with hooks along the inside of the hoop; our pressure breakaway goal will withstand the weight of even the most aggressive slam dunks.

5′ Fixed Extension Arm

The Douglas® F5™ fixed extension arm overhangs 5’, providing stability, strength, and extra room for lay-ups and fast competitive play. The unique extension mount is angled and entirely out of the play area, minimizing potential contact. The corrosion-resistant 5” x 5” reinforced extension arm attaches to the base of the backboard and the outer perimeter of the frame, allowing for the preferred “clear view” style. Upper brace arms are provided for maximum stability.

Structured Steel Pole

Constructed from 6” square galvanized steel with a 3/16” wall thickness, the Douglas® F5™ System handles rugged play in the toughest conditions. Every steel pole is finished in an attractive black acrylic powder coat to prevent chipping, rusting, and corrosion in virtually any environment from coast to coast. We have included a durable 2” thick fitted pole and base pad with every Douglas® F5™ Basketball System for increased aesthetic appeal and to keep our players safe and free from injury.

Protective Padding

Form-fitted pole and base padding are manufactured with durable black all-weather vinyl that is UV and all-weather resistant. Dense foam padding is 2” thick for maximum impact protection. Padding secures in the back with sewn-in overlapping Velcro straps. Sleek, molded vinyl backboard padding offers maximum player protection while not interfering with gameplay. Backboard padding is pre-installed for your convenience.

Easiest Installation Process

A robust anchor system allows for easy and accurate leveling during installation. All systems are set in a structurally sound 4’ deep concrete footing, providing a safe and steady base you can trust. Not only are our bolts and base completely covered for player safety, but our J-bolt anchor system permits you to dismount your basketball system and move to a new location—all you will have to do is install a new anchor system at the new location. Easy. As. Pie.

All Weather, All Season Protection

Blazing summers, drizzly springs, and icy winters are no match for the ultimate weather protection of our Douglas® Basketball Systems. All steel has a black, baked-on powder coat finish, providing ultimate weather resistance and protection. All the fastening hardware is made from stainless steel to ensure your system maintains its structural integrity.

Douglas® Lifetime Limited Warranty

Replacement parts are always readily available, so you never have to miss a minute of playtime. We’ve got your back, and we’re here to stay.
