    Black Material Around Screen Edges

    What material is being used and how are you attaching the black material around the edges of the screen? In the pictures below, the black material hides the bungees and slotted angle iron and seems to really finish off the area.

    Home Depot sells cheap rolls of black rubber backed carpeting. You cut your length. They work great. I just used double sided Velcro strips to hang it up after cutting down to the width I liked.

      Can you post a picture of your setup? I'm curious how it looks compared to something I could get from Par2Pro for many hundreds of dollars more. Also, how does the ball bounce off of it (quickly, dies)?

        I would love to see that setup too. Also, how are you preventing the ball from bouncing back off of the angle iron?

        The trim that we sell has a professional look and helps absorb the ball if it hits the angle iron, but it also comes with a higher price tag. We have tried a number of different options but they don't seem to perform as well or look as professional as we would like. It would be great to let customers know of good options if they need something more budget-friendly

          Par2Pro - Thanks for that reply. I'm still contemplating options but definitely like the idea of having a premade solution for sake of simplicity.

            I’ve got the Par2Pro trim round my screen.
            This is my third post in this section about how I built my garage simulator. Unfortunately Photobucket have changed their “third party hosting’ rules, and want


            It’s like a heavy duty version of the ‘fluffy’ side of Velcro. Imagine 2 of them stitched back to back on a large scale.
            Mine covers my frame pipe, and has taken a direct hit. It almost kills the ball dead, as it barely bounced back at all. Expensive, but worth the money... and definitely looks the business!!

                  Hey Yakaar,
                  I don't have it on our website yet as the pricing has been all over the map with the different sizes. I am trying to get everyone the best price possible, so we have to look at the size, determine the waste and calculate the price based on that. I would hate to charge a 'padded price' where you end up paying more than you have to - especially since it is not a cheap purchase.
                  To get a price, please email me at cory@par2pro.com with your trim size requirements and if you need any of the Velcro to attach to your frame/slotted angle iron and your screen (also please let me know if you have a screen that has Velcro on it ).
