How To Select Optimum Hardware For Hanging Swing

 



To hang your swing on the ceiling of your house, you need various types of hardware, accessories, and equipment. Some of the important accessories and hardware required for hanging your swing with the ceiling are as follow:


Chains With S Hooks and Eyebolts

To hang your swing with the ceiling of the porch, you need rope, hardware, and connectors. These hardware and connectors are quite suitable for outdoor exposure. Invest in good quality chains with S hooks and eye-bolts.


Steel Chains or Rope

You need either steel chains or rope to hand your swing in the porch. The new swing always comes with hanging chains and ropes. If you want to replace the old one with the new one, make sure that the styles and visual appeal of chains match with the décor of your home. Steel chains are durable and they last long. But if you want rustic style, then you should consider investing in the rope. If you are using rope, then make sure that it is at least ¾ inches thick.


Hanger Kits

A swing hanger and complete hanger-kit are very important to complete the installation process of the swing on your porch. We recommend you choose four hole swing hangers to ensure safety. This hanger will strong integrate the swing with the ceiling.


Screw Eyes or Hooks

If you do not want to use the hanger kit, then prefer to use heavy-duty stainless steel screw eyes or hooks. These are required to integrate the chain with your swing and ceiling as well. Make sure that the screw or bolt diameter is approximately ½ inch and screws have a threaded shank which is approximately 4 inches long.
