This system is engineered around robust 3.5\" OD schedule 40 aluminum posts, crafted from ¼\" thick high-tensile aluminum. This construction provides exceptional durability while keeping the posts lightweight for easy removal, storage, and setup. A heavy-duty steel internal worm gear driven winch is integrated for safe and effortless net tensioning, featuring an adjustable post collar and a handle that can be locked or removed for security. The Guardian PKSO includes a high-quality pickleball net, built with the same durable components found in our tennis nets, featuring a vinyl-coated cable and a black powdercoat finish for lasting performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe defining feature of the Guardian PKSO is its exclusive FT5001 hinged sockets. These innovative sockets are designed to be cemented flush with your court surface, providing a completely smooth and unobstructed playing area when the posts are removed. This is particularly beneficial for multi-purpose facilities where courts are used for various activities, eliminating trip hazards and maintaining a clean aesthetic. The hinged lids offer easy access for post installation and removal, then close securely to protect the socket interior. This system delivers the reliability and performance expected from First Team, backed by a Lifetime Limited Warranty, making it a smart investment for any pickleball venue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs at a Glance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.5\" OD schedule 40 aluminum posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty steel internal worm gear winch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable post collar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty pickleball net with vinyl coated cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFT5001 Hinged Sockets for flush-mount installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime Limited Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px; border-collapse:collapse; width:100%; font-size:14px\"\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background:#f5f5f5; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background:#f5f5f5; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003ePost Material\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background:#f5f5f5; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eWinch Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background:#f5f5f5; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eNet Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background:#f5f5f5; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eInstallation Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background:#f5f5f5; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eIncluded Sockets\/Mounting\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"background:#f5f5f5; font-weight:bold; border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eWarranty\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/first-team-guardian-pkps\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGuardian PKPS\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003e3.5\" OD Schedule 40 Aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eInternal Worm Gear\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eDeluxe Pickleball Net\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eIn-Ground Sleeve\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003ePVC Sleeves\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eLifetime Limited\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background:#f0f7ff;\"\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/first-team-guardian-pkso\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGuardian PKSO\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003e3.5\" OD Schedule 40 Aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eInternal Worm Gear\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eDeluxe Pickleball Net\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eIn-Ground Hinged Socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eHinged Sockets\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eLifetime Limited\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/first-team-guardian-pksm\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGuardian PKSM\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003e3.5\" OD Schedule 40 Aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eInternal Worm Gear\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eDeluxe Pickleball Net\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eSurface Mount\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eSurface Mount Hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border:1px solid #ddd; padding:8px;\"\u003eLifetime Limited\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"First Team","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48774005850339,"sku":null,"price":2229.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/8370\/6339\/files\/c109ef1b-2702-445b-b36a-69c2123b5eb9_6649e816-3899-4f85-96ff-46063b3a832f.jpg?v=1779297313","url":"https:\/\/joysportstore.com\/products\/first-team-guardian-pkso","provider":"JoySportStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
