Gared Performance Sports Systems Electric Basketball Backboard Height Adjuster, Single Post (GPS-1171)

Product Features

• Effortless Electric Operation Adjusts the rim height from 10' down to 8' via a motorized drive, removing the need for manual cranking.
• Heavy-Duty Steel Construction Fabricated from high-tensile steel tubing and L-bracing to maintain rigidity at any height.
• Vibration-Damping Design All components are precision-engineered to eliminate "chatter" and ensure a quiet, professional playing environment.
• Institutional Powder Coat Finished in a resilient flat black powder coat that resists the wear and tear of a busy gymnasium.
• Youth Program Versatility Allows for rapid court turnover between adult leagues and youth clinics without physical strain on staff.
• Safety Overload Protection The electrical system is designed to handle the weight of the board and goal safely while protecting the motor from burnout.
• Maintenance-Free Bearings Designed with long-lasting components that require minimal upkeep beyond periodic lubrication of the slide tubes.
• Single Post Compatibility Specifically engineered to mount onto industry-standard single-post basketball masts (typically 6-5/8” diameter).
• Direct Goal Attachment Forces from dunks and play are transferred directly to the steel backstop structure, preventing backboard breakage.
• Precision Limit Switches Features factory-set limit switches that automatically stop the motor at the exact 8' and 10' positions to prevent mechanical overtravel.
• Spring-Activated Locking Includes a specialized locking mechanism that secures the drive rod, ensuring the board never "drifts" during intense play.
• High-Torque Motor Equipped with a powerful, UL-listed electric actuator designed for the heavy lifting required by institutional glass or steel boards.
• Visible Height Indicator A clearly marked scale on the slide channel allows operators to verify the exact rim height from the gymnasium floor.
• Direct-Drive Screw Rod Utilizes a heavy-duty threaded screw rod for smooth, quiet, and consistent vertical movement.
• Hardwired or Remote Ready Can be integrated into a facility's master control panel (Model 1158) or operated via a wireless remote (Model 1156/1198).
