Help & Tips

Bar hammocks

1: Where and how can I hang my spreader bar hammock?

There are several ways to hang a spreader bar hammock: between two trees, between two walls or between two pillars. You are free to combine different options by hanging it between a tree and a pillar, for example. It is also possible to attach the spreader bar hammock to the ceiling. It is advisable to check the strength of the support elements chosen beforehand.

If none of these options are available, you can opt for a hammock stand: it adapts to your desires and leaves you free to install it wherever you want.

2: How much space do I need to set up my spreader bar hammock?

It is essential to check the relationship between the spacing and the height at which the fixing points are located: the suspension height (y) should be approximately one third of the spacing distance (x). If you increase the spacing between the fixing points, you will of course have to increase the suspension height.

Finally, it is important to check that the hammock can move freely, without rubbing the ground. This will protect it from premature wear and allow you to enjoy your beautiful hammock for much longer!

3: What is the most comfortable position in a spreader bar hammock?

You can lie in our Colombian spreader bar hammocks both lengthwise and diagonally. The hammock fabric remains fully extended in both positions, to guarantee you complete relaxation in all circumstances.
