PREPARING THE SWING HANGING BAR

INSTALLING THE SWING HANGER SCREWS

 Drill holes through the beam using a 3/8" drill bit. Drill through the full 

6” of the wood, at 90° angles to the beam. Drill a hole at each marked 

spot.

1.   Place a washer on each end the drilled hole, 

flush with the wood. 

2.   Slide the screw hanger through the first 

washer, through the beam and through the 

second washer. 

3.   Tighten the screw in place using the two 

accompanying nuts, screwing them onto the 

top of the screw hanger on the other side of 

the beam.

4.   Repeat steps 1-3 at each drilled hole and 

swing hanger screw.

• 

  Measure and mark the 120” top beam for placement of the swings. 

Make the markings on the 4” surface of the beam. Mark each spot 

where a swing hanger screw must be installed to hang a swing chain 

on. See the diagram below for the measurements of how to place your 

swings in accordance with safety requirements. Dotted lines indicate

 where markings must be made.
