Step #1: Layout the Pieces of Your Bracketing Kit
Layout all pieces of your HomeBay Bracket and Hardware kit. You should have 2 wide brackets
for the top of the setup and 2 narrow brackets for the bottom. You will also want to layout all the
hardware provided to confirm all pieces were received. Please note that we have provided one
extra of each of the hardware pieces.
Step #2: Locate Studs and Make Measurements
A stud finder is recommended for this step (not provided). We have provided drywall anchors for
your use, however, for the tightest fitting screen, we recommend using as many stud locations
as possible when installing your brackets. If the stud placement is not sufficient for the width of
the HomeBay, customers have placed spacer boards between studs to bridge the gap - thin 24”
x 24” sheets of plywood will work well for this.
Mark your width at exactly 120” and your height at exactly 92”. mounted. Essentially, you are
marking the corner points of a 120” wide by 92” height rectangle
Step #3: Install Brackets to Wall
Install Top Brackets
Place your brackets in the positions that have been measured and marked. We highly
recommend having at least one screw go into a stud with each bracket. Install drywall
anchors wherever necessary on the remaining holes if studs are not possible. Once any
anchors are in place, place the brackets and insert the provided screws into each of the
holes.
Install Bottom Brackets
Place your brackets in the positions that have been measured and marked. For the best
fit and durability, mount all screws into a stud. If this is not possible, install drywall
anchors into the marked positions and insert a screw into this on the remaining holes.
Once any anchors are in place, place the brackets and insert the provided screws into
each of the holes. If you have floorboards, you will need to place a spacer board equal to
the thickness of your floorboard behind the top hole (this is fairly common)
Step #4: Install Screen to Brackets
Unfold your screen and lay flat on a clean surface. The bottom of your screen will be the
flap without the velcro attachment. Hold the top of the screen at each corner and align
the corner grommet to the hole in the top bracket. Insert the elevator bolt through the
grommet and the hole in the bracket, then fasten the washer and nut to the end of the
bolt, hand tighten the nut to secure the fitting. Repeat this process for each of the
remaining three corner brackets.
Step #5: Install Side Netting
Unpack your triangular side netting and indicate the right side from the left. Lay out the
nets and locate the 8’ section that contains the velcro as well as the 10’ length section.
The following diagram indicates where the velcro will need to be positioned. Attach the
velcro portion of the side net to the side flap of your HomeBay Impact Screen from top to
bottom. The side net should be the same height as the impact screen if properly
fastened. Fasten the sandbags to the far corner of the side netting and fill with your
heavy object of choice. Fasten the top grommet of the net to the impact screen utilizing
the ball bungees provided for a tighter fit.
Step #6: Install Ceiling Netting
Unpack and layout your rectangular ceiling netting. Locate the velcro portion of the net
and this will be the surface that attaches to the top flap of your impact screen. Attach the
velcro and then fasten the top corner grommets of the net to the impact screen utilizing
the ball bungees provided for a tighter fit. Once fully attached to your impact screen, pull
the ceiling netting taught and up to your ceiling, marking the positioning of the grommets
on your ceiling. Insert the ceiling hooks into your ceiling and hook the corner grommets
to each of the ceiling hooks. For an average ceiling height of 9 feet to 10 feet, your net
should be positioned in an upward angle about 4-5 feet from the screen.
You’re all done!
