Each post is made from 3.5\" outside diameter, 1\/4\" wall 6063-T6 aluminum tube with a black powder coat finish. That gives you a strong, corrosion-resistant upright that stays light enough to remove and store when needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSentry can switch between two sports. Pull a pin and the top cap telescopes from 36\" pickleball net height to 42\" tennis net height. That makes it a smart and practical choice for busy multi-use courts where both sports share the same space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNet tension is set with a 26:1 ratio worm gear winch that will not backdrive, so the net holds steady once fully tightened. The winch has a quick-detach handle that you can remove after adjusting. The vinyl-coated top cable runs over a 2\" pulley at the top of the winch post for smooth tensioning. An adjustable post collar and 1\/4\" aluminum net lacing straps help keep the net properly secured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PKPS package includes two 36\" white PVC sleeves for post installation. Set the sleeves in concrete and the posts slide in and out, so you can remove them for storage, maintenance, or other court uses. The included heavy-duty pickleball net is made from 3 mm black polypropylene with a 32 oz. headband and vinyl side and bottom tapes. The posts and components carry a lifetime limited warranty, and the net carries a 2-year limited warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.5\" OD, 1\/4\" wall 6063-T6 aluminum posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack powder coat finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTelescoping top cap adjusts from 36\" pickleball to 42\" tennis net height\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e26:1 ratio worm gear winch that will not backdrive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-detach removable winch handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable post collar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2\" zinc-plated pulley caps on both posts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4\" aluminum net lacing strap on each post\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty pickleball net with vinyl-coated top cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo 36\" PVC sleeves for removable post installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBenefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse one court for both pickleball and tennis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChange net height in moments with the pull of a pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep consistent net tension with a winch that holds its setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove the handle after adjusting to help keep the court tidy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove posts easily for storage or seasonal maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight aluminum construction resists rust and is easy to handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable net built for regular outdoor play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime limited warranty on posts and components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: First Team\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Sentry PKPS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePost Material: 6063-T6 aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePost Size: 3.5\" OD, 1\/4\" wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black powder coat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Height Settings: 36\" pickleball, 42\" tennis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWinch: 26:1 ratio worm gear with removable handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePost Weight: Approx. 25 lb (winch post), 20 lb (non-winch post)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Size: 36\" H x 21' 6\" L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Material: 3 mm black woven polypropylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Headband: 32 oz.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNet Tapes: 2.5\" black vinyl side and bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation: Two 36\" white PVC sleeves (in-ground)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: FT8100PO Sentry Posts \u0026amp; Winch, FT8000P1 Heavy Duty Pickleball Net, FT8000PVC Plastic Sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipping Weight: 160 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: Lifetime limited (posts and components), 2-year limited (net)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFAQ's\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included with the Sentry PKPS?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe package includes the Sentry posts and winch (FT8100PO), a heavy-duty pickleball net (FT8000P1), and two PVC sleeves (FT8000PVC).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this system be used for tennis?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
