Gared Steel Front Mount Backboard – Backboard Only 35\”x54\”

Description

Not all backboards are created equal. If your court sees aggressive games, unpredictable weather, or a mix of both, you need a heavy-duty steel backboard that won’t crack, warp, or call it quits after a few dunks. The Gared Steel Fan-Shaped Rear-Mount Backboard is designed to take on everything from intense full-court presses to endless rounds of pick-up games. Whether it’s installed on a playground pole, a gym wall, or an outdoor park, this backboard is ready to play—rain or shine.

Why Choose Steel?

While acrylic and fiberglass backboards are common, steel is the go-to choice for durability and longevity. This 2-gauge steel shell is powder-coated for weather resistance, ensuring that it doesn’t rust or degrade over time. That means no worrying about sun damage, rain corrosion, or impact from rough play. Plus, it provides a solid rebound for bank shots, making it ideal for serious games.

Easy to Mount, Hard to Break

The standard 20” x 35” backboard mounting pattern and 5” x 4.5” goal-mounting pattern make installation simple and hassle-free. It’s compatible with ceiling- and wall-mounted systems, as well as gooseneck and straight-arm posts, making it versatile for different court setups.

Designed for High-Impact Play

From competitive leagues to weekend warriors, this backboard is perfect for:
✅ Outdoor playgrounds – Built to handle the elements and constant use.
✅ School and park courts – Tough enough for fast-paced action.
✅ Indoor gymnasiums – Classic, professional look with durable steel construction.

Classic Look with a High-Visibility Target

A white backboard with an orange target helps players refine their shots and aim with confidence. The fan-shaped design not only gives it a classic, nostalgic feel but also maximizes visibility without taking up unnecessary space.
