Batting cage installation instructions?

Hi

I have a 70 foot net we use for an outdoor cage, and i have been given permission to use it in a city building here during the winter.

The building width is 59 feet the cage is longer but that's no problem, we have been advised to use 1/4 galvanized cable it's either 7 19 or 7 9 i am not sure on the number and or 1/8th cables.

We need 3 strands, sides and middle.


The anchors are to be screw eyes closed with 350# weight, 3 on each end, and 3 turnbuckles with i think 350# weight, then the thimbles and clamps and hooks for the net.

We have to use it on a set up take down basis, so the net has to slide out from the wall on the cables, then when done we slide it back hook the net up and take the cables down on the turnbuckle end, to keep it out of the basketball volleyball space,

Has anyone done anything like this as to safety measures and strength?

The net i think is #21 and actually is 70 feet, may be total weight 100#'s or so?

Any questions feel free to ask.

I first posted this in the general forum, and was directed here.
thanks
