Silverback Nxt 54" Wall Mounted Adjustable-Height Basketball Hoop With Quickplay Design

My basketball build turned out great. I liked the Silverback backboard and rim, but I was not impressed with the post that they sold with it in other packages. My solution was to build my own post and mount the wall mounted Silverback to it. Turned out great. I was able to use a 3"x8"x13.5' post, then I had to fabricate some "ears" out of angle iron for a couple of the mounts. This thing is rock solid. All the hardware that comes with it is overkill which is great. Assembly was pretty straightforward as long as you use some common sense. If you are wanting a heavy built goal to outlast your kids. Do what i did. Buy this wall mount goal, build your own post and install it yourself.

Amazingly easy to install, perfect instructions to follow. Great quality. Could not be happier with purchase!

Ok, so the finished product is perfect. And assembly of the hoop itself is pretty easy. The only issue is no hardware to actually mount the hoop to any structure is included and the instructions do not give you any guidance or recommendations on what you need either. I understand this is probably because people might mount this in a variety of different ways to varying structures. But a little guidance or recommendations would have been helpful. I ended up using 5/16-in x 8-in Carriage Bolts. 5/16 is the largest size that will fit through the mounting bracket. I was able to get 99% of the installation done by myself, but I had scaffolding. Still needed another person to hold as I attached the backboard to the mounting bars. Good value and getting great use out of it.

Very easy to assemble and looks sturdy. Do need 2 people to put it up.

Teenager loves. Good quality, easy to assemble
