Batco
Cage Quality
Superior materials are used to produce the Batco
cage that will provide many more years of service than the typical
batting cage.
The arcs are constructed of four pieces of inline
triple coated, galvanized 16 gauge mechanical steel tubing. It
has superior corrosion resistance inside and out.
The netting is weather treated 42 gauge knot less
nylon net, the heaviest and most durable netting used in any cage.
The net is 50% stronger than the standard net used in commercial
cages, and it's sewn into heavy-duty VCN sleeves.
All sewing is done with heavy duty thread that has
been treated to protect it from ultraviolet light and uses double
lock stitching to provide the ultimate durability possible.
Practicality & Convenience
Even though the Batco cage is larger and made of higher quality
materials than other cages, perhaps its most appealing feature
is its unique convenience. Just anchor each end of the cage to
a gym wall (indoors) or to poles in the ground (outdoors) and
you have a vertically self supporting batting cage.
When using outdoors, the Batco's arc shaped design
prevents movement in the wind. Indoor users really appreciate
the Batco because there is no need to construct an elaborate hanging
system.
The Batco cage can easily be folded and unfolded,
like an accordion. After use, the Batco cage can be folded to
18' wide, 12' high, and just 2' long in less than 5 minutes. To
collapse the cage you need two players per arc (8 players for
the 54 footer and 10 for the 72') to slide the cage into storage.
The players simply walk in unison, folding the cage up against
the wall or fence as they walk.
You can always leave the Batco batting batting cage
in place so that it's ready for use, but for those having to share
space in a gym with other sports it's good to know that you can
pull the batting cage out from storage in just a few minutes and
then quickly fold it back after practice.
Cage setup is easy, as the frames are constructed
to slide together quickly. Each cage comes with written assembly
instructions, and a step by step installation video.
Another great feature is the zipper entrance at
one end of the cage. Players and coaches will no longer need to
lift up the net to enter the cage, as the zipper opening acts
like a doorway. |
