The seat height should ideally be around 20 to 23 inches (50/60cm) from the floor to provide comfort to the user.

Front View

The spacing between hooks must be 22 inches (56cm) center to center.

Once the installation of the hooks on the ceiling or beam is completed, the swing can be hung.

Each carabiner must be hooked into the high tenacity polyester strap, according to the height of the roof.

Sway Swings covers 3 standard ceiling heights for residential homes: 8ft (2.45m), 8.5ft (2.60m), and 9ft (2.75m). For higher spaces, you can use swing camping extension straps or chains. Each carabiner should be attached to each high-tenacity polyester strip at the roll corresponding to the height of your ceiling.

The carabines must be positioned with the larger diameter ring facing downward, in order to provide a larger contact surface with the straps. Watch Assenbly video.

Cada mosquetón debe engancharse en la tira de poliéster de alta tenacidad, según corresponda la altura del techo. El mismo debe quedar posicionado con el aro de mayor diámetro hacia abajo, para tener una mayor superficie de contacto con las cintas.

MOST COMMON INSTALLATION SCENARIOS

  1. Concrete ceiling: A professional installer will be able to mount 2 stainless steel circular hooks of 4 holes each, using expandable anchors to screw the bolts and secure each hook to the concrete of your ceiling.

  2. Cielorraso suspendido: A professional installer must gain access to the concrete ceiling in order to mount two extender hooks to firmly and securely extend your hammock hanging hooks outside of your suspended ceiling. The extender hooks must be mounted using expandable anchors to screw the bolts and secure each hook to the concrete of your ceiling. The installer can then hang the hammock from the lower end of the spreader hooks below your suspended ceiling.

  3. Beams or truss:
    • Wood: Option A, stainless steel circular hooks: A professional installer must access the wooden beam or truss to mount 2 stainless steel circular hooks firmly and securely with 4 holes each, using wood bolts or steel through bolts to ensure proper and secure hanging of the swing from the wooden structure of your house.

    • Wood: Option B, using camping strap extenders: A professional installer must access the wooden beam or truss to encircle and firmly and securely tie 2 camping hammock straps, from which he will mount the carabiners provided in the kit. Once the strength and stability of the hammock has been firmly checked, the hammock can be hung from the carabiners at the desired height.
