Hammock on the balcony

What you need:

• stable ropes
• Swing hook
• Snap hook

Determine the size of the hammock

If you want to put a hammock on the balcony, it is especially important that the hammock fits on your balcony.

• Think carefully how and where you want to hang the hammock before you determine the size.
• You should also be aware that it can be difficult to walk around a hammock if the balcony is too small. Often only either the hammock or a seating area with table and chairs fits on a balcony.
• If you want to have both, set up your seating area the way it should stand afterwards and then weigh up whether a hammock still fits.
• Measure the area that is still free for the hammock. You may also use "airspace", e.g. B. above the balcony railing, measured as the hammock is not on the floor.

With a hammock you can bring that holiday feeling into your home. You can lie in it ...

• When buying the hammock, also keep in mind that the space it takes up is much larger than the actual lying surface. This is due to the fact that the hammock is longer than the lying surface, as you still have to be able to attach it. You may also want to swing the hammock a little.

Fix the hammock on the balcony

• If you have a very large balcony, you can also buy a hammock with a bracket. You can set up the bracket and hang the hammock on it.
• If your balcony doesn't have that much space, consider getting strong hammock fasteners. To attach the hammock, you need ropes and swing hooks as well as snap hooks, which will later enable you to attach or detach the hammock as you wish. When purchasing these parts, make sure that they can support your weight and are of good quality. Because all of your weight will be borne by it.
• It is best to attach the hammock around the corner on your balcony. This is how you ensure optimal stability.
