Flexible by Design:
Hammocks & Swings That Adapt to Your Space
Installing your Artissanos hammock or swing is simple and adaptable, and in the guide below, we’ll walk you through the steps for various setups—indoors, outdoors, or with a stand.
If your hammock or swing seems too long or too short for your space, there’s no need to worry—or return it. Each piece is designed with flexible, adjustable arms that allow you to customize the fit. You can easily untie the end knots, adjust the length, and retie them securely to achieve the perfect tension and height.
This thoughtful design ensures a tailored fit for your space while honoring the time and craftsmanship behind every piece—each one handmade by our artisans over the course of more than a week.
Setting Up Your Artissanos Hammock with Ease and Style
Indoor Installation Guide
These measurements provide a reference for installing your Artissanos hammock between two walls approximately 15 feet apart. If your space has a shorter or longer span, simply adjust the height of the hooks and the length of your strap, chain, or rope accordingly.
For optimal comfort and aesthetic balance, ensure that the lowest point of the hammock hangs about 2 feet 6 inches above the floor.
Hammock Stand Compatibility
Our hammocks are designed to fit seamlessly with a 13-foot stand. For optimal support and appearance, attach the eyes of the hammock directly to the stand’s hooks—without using chains, ropes, or straps. This ensures the proper tension and prevents excess sagging, allowing for a secure and comfortable installation.
Between Two Trees
For a classic outdoor setup, these measurements are ideal for installing your hammock between two trees spaced approximately 15 feet apart. If your trees are positioned closer or farther apart, simply adjust the length of the straps or rope as needed.
To ensure both comfort and function, the lowest point of the hammock should rest about 2 feet 6 inches above the ground once installed.
Setting Up your Artissanos Swing with Ease
Indoor Installation Guide
These measurements offer a reference for installing your Artissanos hammock swing indoors. You can easily adjust the height by modifying the length of the strap, chain, or rope used during installation.
For both comfort and safety, ensure that the bottom of the swing hangs approximately 2 feet above the floor and maintains a 2-foot clearance from the nearest wall.
Hammock Swing Stand Compatibility
Our hammock swings are designed to fit perfectly with a 7 ft 9 in (93 in) stand. For optimal support and aesthetic balance, attach the eye of the swing directly to the stand’s hook—without using additional chains, ropes, or straps.
To ensure comfort and proper clearance, the bottom of the swing should hang approximately 2 feet above the ground.
Hanging From a Tree
These guidelines provide a reference for installing your Artissanos hammock swing from a tree. For a smooth and balanced swing, ensure the seat hangs approximately 2 feet away from the tree trunk.
Adjust the length of your strap or rope as needed so that the bottom of the swing sits 2 feet above the ground, ensuring both comfort and clearance.
