What is liftgate?

Standard (curbside) freight delivery: the driver brings the pallet to your address but does not unload it, so you need a loading dock, a forklift or enough people to unload it.

Liftgate delivery: the truck's hydraulic liftgate lowers the pallet to the ground, the right choice for a home, school, park or any address without a dock. To add it, choose the shipping method "Premium Insured Freight + Liftgate (+$209)" at checkout. It is $209 per order and covers all freight items in the order. It does not include inside delivery or assembly. Shipping policy

The RuffNeck Supreme Basketball System features a robust vertical pole constructed from 4 ½" O.D. RS40 zinc flow coated steel tubing with a 7 ga. wall thickness. This pole is designed for a 48" ground bury and offers a 48" setback from the post to the backboard. Support for the backboard's top corners is provided by two 1" round galvanized tubular braces that connect directly to the pole.

The system includes a 42"x 72" rectangular 1/2" thick clear acrylic backboard, framed with competition-grade anodized aluminum. This backboard features a bright white 2" border and an official size shooters square screen-printed on its backside for durability. The rim is a flexible, institutional quality design with an official 5/8" diameter high strength steel ring, supported by a 3/16" brace covering 60% of the ring. It is finished with an orange powdercoating and mounts with either a 3"x 4" or 5"x 5" hole pattern.

All structural components of the rim are built from no less than 3/16" steel, with spring action provided by a heavy duty compression wire spring, enclosed by a steel coverplate. The entire basketball system weighs approximately 290# and is covered by a Lifetime Limited Warranty on the pole, backboard, and standard rim.
