Proprietary design and production
SKOR's hammer throw cage is fully designed and produced in-house. This makes the cage unique in the market. Thanks to full control over design, materials, and production, we deliver a product that is functional, safe, durable, and meets real-world needs.
Concrete-free and demountable construction
No concrete needed anymore. SKOR's shot put and hammer cage is equipped with a smart screw foundation. Posts can be unscrewed instead of broken out, without damaging the subsoil. The construction is made of high-quality aluminum, instead of steel. This not only makes the cage lighter and easier to assemble, but also more durable in use and better for the environment.
Smart design with an eye for safety
SKOR combines functionality with a neat appearance. The steel cables are seamlessly integrated into the profile and finished with strips. The spreader is also completely concealed below ground level. From there, the cable runs to the top of the post, which automatically ensures the correct distance between the net and the pole. Thanks to the ingenious winching system, the net can be hoisted easily and safely.
Approved for official competitions
SKOR's hammer throw cage is WA certified, making it suitable for official competitions and international athletics events. Thanks to its clever construction, the system is easily adaptable to changing standards. A future-proof investment for any athletics venue.

Hammer Throw
Hammer throw is an impressive throwing event within athletics, where athletes precisely and powerfully hurl a hammer attached to a steel wire. It is a technically challenging discipline that requires a safe and professional setup. Proper setup of hammer throw facilities is essential to mitigate risks and optimally support athletes. Both in official competitions and during training, the setup must meet high standards. On the SKOR website, you can choose from a diverse range of hammer throw equipment.
How exactly does hammer throw work?
In hammer throw, the athlete swings the hammer in a circular motion, then releases it at high speed. Due to the intensity of the movement and the weight of the hammer, there are clear safety requirements. These include sufficient clear space, sturdy cages, and good visibility for judges and spectators. Without the right equipment, there is a risk of injury or damage.
Everything you need for a safe setup
