Product Details
The Gared 1172 Electric Adjust-a-Goal Height Adjuster is a premium, fully integrated motorized system designed for elite gymnasiums. By combining the 1171 electric motor with specialized attachment kits, it allows facilities with 6-5/8" single-post backstops to instantly lower rectangular backboards from 10 feet down to 8 feet with automated precision.
Product Features
- Complete Integrated Package Bundles the 1171 electric adjuster with the 1408 attachment kit (for 6-5/8" posts) and the 4404 kit (for rectangular boards).
- Visual Height Indicator A clearly marked scale on the slide channel allows staff to verify the exact rim height from the gymnasium floor.
- Industrial Steel Construction Built with high-tensile steel L-braces and thick-walled tubing for maximum rigidity at any extension.
- Vibration-Damping Engineering Precision-welded components eliminate "chatter" and ensure a quiet, professional playing environment.
- Institutional Powder Coat Finished in a resilient flat black powder coat that resists chipping and scratching in high-traffic gymnasiums.
- Safety Overload Protection The electrical system is designed to safely manage heavy institutional loads while protecting the motor from burnout.
- 2-Year Limited Warranty Backed by Gared’s institutional guarantee, covering the actuator and structural integrity for two full years.
- High-Capacity Linear Actuator Powered by a heavy-duty 115-volt electric motor with a 660 lb lifting capacity to handle regulation glass or steel boards.
- Precision Limit Switches Features factory-set internal limit switches that automatically cut power at exactly 8' and 10' to prevent mechanical overtravel.
- 6-5/8" Single Post Compatibility Specifically engineered to clamp securely onto the industry-standard large-diameter single mast.
- Rectangular Board Focus Optimized for institutional rectangular backboards with standard 36" x 63" mounting centers.
- Direct Goal Attachment Transfers all dunking and playing stress directly to the steel backstop structure, protecting the backboard from impact breakage.
- Infinite Height Settings While it automatically stops at 8' and 10', the board can be halted at any height in between for custom training sessions.
- Versatile Control Options Can be operated via a hardwired key switch or a portable power wand (control hardware sold separately).
- Spring-Activated Lock Includes a specialized locking mechanism that secures the drive rod, ensuring the board never "drifts" during intense games.
