Have you been looking for a way to display a football in your home? Whether your football is one you used in a key game when you were a player, is an autographed form of memorabilia, or it has other significance, you want to make sure the display method you choose is secure as well as attractive. That’s where a secure, wall-mounted holder comes in. However, to ensure it will do its job properly, you need to install it correctly.
Here is more information on football holders and a step-by-step guide to installing your secure, wall-mounted football holder.
What are Wall-Mounted Football Holders?
A wall-mounted football holder is a device that allows you to hang your football on the wall, making it appear to float in mid-air. It’s perfect for mounting your important football next to a diploma, framed piece of memorabilia, or picture that relates to the football or you can create a display with other footballs or game balls such as basketball or volleyballs.
A wall-mounted football holder is ideal for your man cave, entertainment area where you gather your friends to watch sports, play darts, or gather around the bar, or for your living area. You can also use these holders to display balls at your place of business, your personal office, or in your kids’ room if he or she plays sports or has a favorite team.
Step-by-Step Mounting Guide
If you follow the instructions included with your football holder, you should find it relatively easy to install it. Here is a guide that will help you mount your holder in four easy steps.
1: Mount the Bracket
First, you will have to figure out the location where you want for your football holder and marketing where the screws for the bracket will go. You can then drill pilot holes in these locations and install the anchors if you are not drilling into a stud. Once the screws are installed, you can screw the bracket into the wall.
2: Let the Air Out of the Football
You will need to use a pump and inflation needle to deflate the football before you mount it.
3: Attach the B-Band to the Wall
Step three involves putting the B-band in the horizontal slot that is located on the back of the bracket. Once you’ve done this, you’ll wrap this band around the deflated football and guide it into a seam so it is invisible.
4: Secure the Ball
Now it’s time to re-inflate your ball to the correct pressure, tightening the band around it and holding it against the bracket. Be careful not to over-inflate the ball. You will then slide the bracket with the ball secured to it onto the wall-mounted bracket, waiting until it clicks into the right place.
