How to Select the Right Outdoor Batting Cage for Your Needs

Whether you’re using your batting cage for your backyard, school/university, or commercial facility, the first question you need to ask is.  “How will we be using this cage?” That one question can save you thousands of dollars.  Not to mention a lot of trouble, so be sure you know the answer.

Maybe you’re a homeowner who’s setting up a backyard batting cage for the weekend so the kids can play in the backyard.  Maybe you’re a school or commercial facility and you need the cage up for a weekend tourney or fundraising event.  Either way a temporary, above-ground batting cage is a perfect choice.

If you’re looking for a cage that will perform day in and day out for years to come, then you need a more permanent batting cage like an in-ground one.

Above-ground batting cages are generally temporary outdoor batting cage solutions, perfect for backyard cage use, corporate, or fundraising events. These types of cages usually install quickly.  They are not designed to stay up for long periods time and susceptible to high winds. Most above-ground nets are considered portable, and can quickly be set up at any location with a flat surface. The exception to this rule is the Bolt-Down cages.  As the name suggests, it needs to be bolted down to a concrete surface.

In-ground batting cages are for more permanent outdoor solution. To install these batting cage frames, you’re going to have to do some digging. The frames of these cages and nets can last for years. Many schools, universities, and commercial facilities benefit from side-by-side multi-lane batting cages that not only reduce the overall footprint of the cage but also help to reduce costs.

Determining Your Cage Size

Now that you know which TYPE of cage you need, the next step is determining what SIZE of cage you’ll need.  No matter what type of cage you’ve selected, you’ll need a flat surface for your cage to occupy.  Be sure to leave a minimum of 3 feet between the net and existing structures like sheds, garages, and houses to prevent damage and potential ricochet. Please don’t install your cage near trees and other objects like fences or telephone poles that can become potential ricochet points. If you don’t have much room, don’t despair. Other measures can be taken to install buffers inside your batting cage too.  For example padding on the object itself using pole padding to deaden the impact. These steps can allow you to place your batting cage closer to a structure.

No one size fits all when it comes to batting cages, you may have space restrictions or may not need a full 70’ for pitching and just need a 40’ for hitting.

We recommend people buy the largest twine they can afford. A #42 Twine net is about twice as thick and twice as strong as a #21 Twine. The larger twined, heavier cages will snag balls better, look better, wear better, last longer, and you will be happier with them. You need a minimum of 60 lbs. of tensile strength.

Choosing the Right Artificial Synthetic Turf

No matter how big or small your home or facility is, installing artificial turf in your batting cages is a worthwhile investment. Synthetic turf is designed to withstand wear and tear that occurs when equipment is in high demand.

Gappsi carries many different varieties of artificial turf to choose from for your batting cages. Artificial turf is suitable for use in indoor or outdoor batting cages. You can choose padded or unpadded turf in a variety of materials to suit your needs.

Outdoor artificial turf often resembles spears of grass. Outdoor cages can be outfitted with permeable artificial turf that allows rain and other liquids to run off and then be absorbed into the ground underneath. Indoor artificial turf can also look like grass spears, or it may look more like carpet.

Check out Artificial Turf & Synthetic Lawn Options

Artificial turf usually stands up to daily, continuous use for at least 8-10 years, with many installations lasting as long as 15 years. Artificial turf is resilient, and durable, and protects the flooring or ground in the cage from wear and damage. It requires much less maintenance than actual turf and holds up better to continued use.
