This is how 99% of home bags are installed when not in the garage. When in the garage, suddenly people feel the need to add a piece of wood, crawling in the attic, that all good and great, and does seem better, except I've never seen one in the living room fall out... granted garage one's tend to get more abuse, but still I'm not sure all those extra steps are necessary, also if you can, use a loop of heavy duty webbing to not have metal on metal on the D-rings of your bag, that's always better. But yeah this is a pretty standard hang. If people live above where it's hung... use a spring to keep the noise downstairs. It will sound louder to you... but quieter to your upstairs neighbors. This is because less sound makes it upstairs, but that sound that would've gone up to vibrate in their space, doesn't just vanish, those vibrations just stay in the room with you. I explain that, cuz people always ask, if it's louder here how is the quieter upstairs? Well now you know.
Exactly what I was thinking. People feel the need to frame up their own system in the crawl space as if the bottom chord of the truss isn’t strong enough to hold a bag.
This was very helpful I have a 70 pound bag and I got one of those but I have the whole set up so I don't need to screw anything in but knowing that helps a lot
Ok so i have a 10 feet Unistrut channel with trolleys on it to hung a 90lbs punching bag and 70lbs round punching bag to roll them out of the way.. Should I bolt the unistrut channel straight to the garage ceiling joist or should I bolt down a 2x4 or 2x6 board first to ceiling then bolt down unistrut Chanel to board?? I want to use channel for the 2 punching bags, rings and a climbing rope. My ceilings are 8ft high. Thank u Also what kind of bolts should I use and do I need washers too?
Are all, or most beams 24"in apart.? Im not feeling to sure about this and im in an apartment too! I bought one for my grandson for christmas and im just getting around to hanging it cuz im so....unsure! ugh....Help, im hanging it in the corner of the living room area. Why am i seeing metal through one of the holes??
Hi, some can be 16", if you can't find it " visually" I'd recommend you to get a stud scanner. You can find it at home depot it cost about $10 to $15. That it'll find it for sure!
As far as the metal I'm not sure what could it be. Is it a big building? I mean more than 3 stories? If so then that metal could be a piece of the structure.
@@Hondafn hey game2... The beams or trusses are every 2 feet of space in between. Before you try to install the hook or hanger I'd recommend you to find it drilling it(with a "skinny" bit so you don't make a big hole) first until you feel it, then screw it and if is tighten you found it. Then go forward to start to install it" I hope that response helped you out!
