For safe and stable installation of our inground basketball hoops, the **depth of the foundation hole** follows these industry-proven standards:

### Recommended Hole Depth

- **Regular outdoor public courts: 60 cm (600 mm)**

- **Heavy-duty / competition-grade models: 80 cm (800 mm)**

### Matching Hole Size (Width × Depth)

- **Standard size: 50 cm × 50 cm × 60 cm**

- **Reinforced size: 60 cm × 60 cm × 80 cm**

### Why This Depth?

- Ensures the pole is firmly anchored in concrete to resist dunking, strong wind and daily impact.

- Prevents tilting, shaking or loosening over years of outdoor use.

### Important Note

Concrete must be fully cured for **3–7 days** before assembly and use.

Deeper is not always better — follow the manufacturer’s recommended depth for structural balance.

All our inground basketball systems from Hebei are designed to match these standard foundation sizes for easy, reliable installation worldwide.
