All METechs retractable golf impact screens come with two L shape mounting brackets. They have to be mounted on a solid structure, such as wood, concrete, metal, and other solid material. Drywall anchor installation will not work because of impact force. These screens can be easily installed either on the wall or ceiling. A ceiling mount is a very common and easy way to install these screens.
 
Our standard screen is 126” high, but the maximum installation height from the top of the bracket to the bottom floor should be less than 118” since at least 8” of fabric is used to attach to the top tube and bottom weight bar. The setup height is programmable from anywhere between few inches and 118”. It will automatically stop at the top or bottom where you programmed it. 

If your existing overhead structure is not ready for screen installation, you can convert almost any overhead mount structure into a ceiling mount application using lumber, such as 2” x 4” or 2” x 6” boards.

If your installation height exceeds 118”, we recommend lowering the mount positions to 118” or lower for optimal setup. Additionally, we can specially make screens in any height up to 236”, but this will significantly increase costs due to material waste and specialized machine setup.

Expand the built-in solid structure with a piece of wood. The wood is used in case the bracket holes don't exactly align with studs or solid structures.DIY retractable golf impact screen installation overhead structure.png

This can turn a wall mount into a ceiling mount with L shape extended structure for an off wall mount. Drop down ceiling positions.

The screen kit can be recessed into the ceiling or box.
