Description
Overview
This Fixed Height Combination Post from the GL range is a galvanised post in 50NB pipe size, fitted with net hooks so one pair of posts can carry a badminton, volleyball, tennis or padder tennis net. The supplier positions it for badminton and junior volleyball. It drops into a matching ground socket and is sold individually, so order two for a court plus the net you need.
The one thing to get right is the pipe size. 50NB has an outer diameter of 60.30 mm; the smaller 40NB post is 48.10 mm. Measure the inner diameter of your existing ground sleeve before ordering, because a post that does not fit comes back for a re-stocking fee plus the extra freight. If your sleeves are the smaller size, the Outdoor Fixed Height Combo Post – 40NB is the right choice.
Key benefits
- Covers several sports on one court: net hooks take badminton, volleyball and tennis nets.
- Built for outdoor courts, with a galvanised finish.
- Designed to be used with a matching ground socket, so posts lift out between seasons.
- Buy exactly what you need: sold individually, with nets ordered separately.
Who it's for
Choose this post for outdoor school courts where badminton and junior volleyball share the space, or for clubs replacing posts in existing 50NB sockets. As a guide from our size guides, badminton nets sit at 1.55 m at the posts and 1.524 m at the centre; junior volleyball nets are set at 2.14 m for girls and 2.24 m for boys, with senior women at 2.24 m and men at 2.43 m. Because the post is fixed height, confirm with our team that its hook position matches the net height you play before ordering.
If your sleeves are the smaller pipe size, the Outdoor Fixed Height Combo Post – 40NB is the alternative, and it pairs with the Ground Socket for 40NB Post.
Care, safety and set-up
This post is made to order and is freight-quoted as a large item; we confirm freight before dispatch. Set it into the matching ground socket and check it sits firmly before hanging the net. Take nets down when the court is not in use.
Frequently asked questions
Does it come with a net?
No. The post is sold on its own without a net or ground socket. Nets for each sport are in our volleyball nets & poles and badminton ranges.
How do I know whether I need 40NB or 50NB?
Measure the inner diameter of your ground sleeve. A 50NB post is 60.30 mm across the outside; a 40NB post is 48.10 mm. Ordering the wrong size incurs a re-stocking fee and extra freight.
Is it sold as a pair?
No, each post is sold individually. A court needs two posts plus a net.
