Each system features two 3.5\" OD schedule 40 aluminum posts, constructed from heavy-duty, ¼\" thick high-tensile aluminum. This material choice ensures exceptional durability while keeping the posts light enough for easy removal, storage, and setup, making them ideal for multi-purpose courts or seasonal use. The black powdercoat finish on the posts and the vinyl-coated cable net contribute to a professional appearance and long-term resistance against the elements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOperating the net tension is made simple and secure with an internal worm gear winch. This mechanism prevents backdriving, maintaining consistent net tension without slippage, and includes a lockable handle that can also be removed for security. The included deluxe pickleball net is built with the same high-quality components found in our tennis nets, ensuring a taut, durable playing surface. The Guardian PKPS system is engineered for longevity and consistent performance, backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty, providing peace of mind for years of competitive play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs at a Glance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePost Construction: 3.5\" OD schedule 40 aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePost Material Thickness: ¼\" high-tensile aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWinch Type: Internal worm gear, non-backdriving\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNet Type: Deluxe heavy-duty pickleball net with vinyl coated cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eInstallation Method: PVC sleeves for ground installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eFinish: Black powdercoat on posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWarranty: Lifetime Limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"border:1px solid #ddd;
