FAQs

Find Answers To The Questions We Get Asked Most

What is tempered/toughened glass?

 Tempered glass is about 4 times as durable as regular glass. In the unlikely event that the glass breaks, tempered glass will shatter into small fragments instead of sharp shards, making it less likely to cause severe injury. Automobiles use tempered glass.

Why do we use a full perimeter aluminum trim around our backboard?

The aluminum trim is riveted and glued to the outside perimeter of the glass and internal steel frame to protect the edges of the tempered glass.

What is a Gusset?

A Gusset is a triangular piece of steel that is welded between the pole and the base plate. Gussets add strength and stability to the pole.

What is “gauge” of steel?

Gauge refers to the thickness of steel. The lower number the thicker steel. Example: 7 gauge steel is thicker than 11 gauge steel.

What is the difference between HOT DIPPED GALVANIZED steel and ZINC ELECTROPATED steel?

Hot-dip galvanizing (PROview® steel pole) is the process of coating steel with a layer of Zinc (galvanize).The entire pole (inside and out) is “dipped” into melted zinc. The bond between the Zinc (galvanize) and steel is super strong and cannot be peeled anyway. Zinc plating or electroplating (PROforce steel Pole and all other steel on all systems)is a process where zinc is applied by using a current of electricity. It is a thinner coating than hot dip galvanizing

What is the Power Arc 90 Lift Assist Height Adjustment System?

Power Arc 90 Lift Assist Height Adjustment System is a dual cylinder method used to adjust the height of your basketball system. One cylinder is a tension screw mechanism attached to a gear box, and with the use of ball bearings allows for precise adjustment and support. The second has an internal spring which allows for low resistance and ease of adjustment. Combined, they create the easiest and most precise height adjustment in the market today.

What is overhang?

Overhang is the distance between the back of the backboard and the front of the pole. A larger overhang will give the player more room, and hence more room to enjoy a real court experience.

Can I take my PROformance system with me if I move?

Chances are, the next person that buys your house is going to want to keep it! If you’re lucky enough to take it with you, you simply loosen the bolts holding the pole to the anchor. The anchor stays in the ground, and you get to take the hoop with you. You can purchase a new anchor when you’re ready to reinstall it.

Want to Become a Dealer for One of the Top Basketball Goal Manufacturers?

Whether you’re helping your future playmaker improve their game or just looking to shoot free-throws in your spare time, a basketball hoop can become a cherished part of your home for the whole family.

But where do you start? Which kind of hoop is best for you and your needs? You’ll need to take into account a variety of factors, from location to backboard material. There are a number of styles and combinations, so let’s take a shot to find the type that best suits you.

Do you already know which type of hoop you need? Shop all basketball hoops at DICK’S and get the game going!

• Tempered Glass: This is the material used at the pro level. Tempered glass offers players a similar bounce and spin they’ll find in gyms.

• Acrylic: These hoops offer the look of glass at a lower price. They also tend to be lightweight, so they don't need as much support. More experienced players may notice a different bounce or spin than they'd see at the gym.

• Polycarbonate: These backboards are highly durable and offer a similar bounce as acrylic. They are designed to withstand the elements.

Also take into account the size of the backboard. These can range from 44" up to 72", which is the regulation size at the professional level. The smaller-sized backboards, typically between 44" and 54", save on space and are good for a standard two-car driveway. The 60" backboard is a great midway point, saving space but still offering a larger size for banking shots.

Backboards generally come in two distinct shapes: rectangular and fan-shaped. Rectangle backboards are more common and offer players more space to spin the ball off the glass. The fan-shaped backboards tend to take up less room. Sometimes, it can come down to which look you like better.
