Is there a roof mount available that would work with this backboard?

I mounted mine on the wall above my garage with extra 2x4s behind the wall for support using the Spalding 316 U-Turn Lift System Bracket. The system "says" it can be used for a roof mount, but I'm not sure.

Yes . The Spaulding mounting kit also comes w angle braces that can be used on a slanted roof or flat against a wall. Nice kit.

I think this can be done. Another option would be to mount it onto the face of the existing back board.

There are available a flat and a slightly convex mounting plate which would probably work ok. The problem would be that it would only be about 2 inches above the board unless you made some kind of custom fixture to raise it. And of course, you'd have to use the waterproof case. You might be better off using a chest strap mount or head strap mount.

There is another frame or an adapter kit/brackets you can purchase that will allow you to attach a traditional headboard to it.

Joe, this is NOT for roof mounting. This model is for Wall mounting only. There are other mounts for sloped roofs...keep searching. Mark in NY

No, it it does not have any mounting hardware on the back....it looks like it could be easily added though!

You could mount a 1x2 on top of you board that you have. If the hooks arnt wide enough. That would be a option. Not sure why it dosnt work for you.

This is a gable mount. You can get an attic version that requires a hole in the roof. I have this one mounted in my shop building and I have the attic version on my house.

You will probably need to drill threw the roof. I would recommend the Big Sky Racks Sky Bar SBR-2G.

Hello, Yes there is a perfect mount for this. Please see the following item that will connect to this cradle.

It would work directly mounted onto the wood drop through or top mounted, it all depends how you want the board to ride

The board is not a smooth fiberglass finish but rather a slightly textured vinyl like fabric that is inflated. I don't think it would work well. I have a similar mount but would not try it on this board. dlb

Some rooftop accessories need to be secured to crossbars - you'll want to check with the manufacturer if they're required. I have a soft-side rooftop carrier that I attach to both the main rails and the crossbars. It would probably work without the crossbars, but I would use an additional tie-down strap or two to compensate.

Yes, that's what I did. I had the model number of our original pole and called lifetime to make sure this backboard could use the existing brackets. Fit perfectly and was fairly easy to install.

The antenna that I purchased, has a "trunk lip mount" bracket installed; and, it doesn't appear that the bracket is removable...for converting it to a "roof mount" application. Check with the manufacturer, and see if they don't make one, for "roof top" applications.
