HANGING YOUR HAMMOCK INDOORS: Hammocks are both beautiful and practical. When you need more space you can just unhook the hammock! Use the hammock to chill out in the lounge, your conservatory or in your bedroom. Why not use it as a guest bed or sofa?

The easiest way to hang your hammock indoors is by using easy + hooks. You can hang it from the wall or from ceiling beams. You will need a drill for drilling holes in the wall when you want to attach the easy + hooks. Its very quick and easy to do!

You might need smartropes to adjust the length of the hammock if the distance between the walls are too long.

HANGING YOUR HAMMOCK OUTDOORS: Use your house, garage, trees, wooden posts, fence and experiment with ropes and hooks!

The most classic way to hang your hammock is of course between two trees. You can use the smartropes or microropes for that..

If you dont have any trees or anywhere to hang your hammock from you can use our stands. You wont need any extra ropes or hooks or anything like that. Everything you need is there.

If you intend hanging the hammock from trees or posts then the first thing to think of is the hanging distance which you can calculate by taking the lenght, for instance 330 cm * 0.9 = 297 cm.

Hooks are best if attaching to walls or to flat/smooth surfaces (if you put a rope around a smooth post, you'll find yourself sat on the floor soon enough! Though did I mention we also sell cushions?)

SAIL BOATS: May be used on boat. (i.e. hung from mast to forestay)
