You can hang our Classic Double Hammocks and Family-Size Hammocks in a range of dimensions. The Classic Double Hammock's ends should be about 10’ apart (+/- 2 feet) and about 5’ off the ground (+/- 1 foot). With that in mind, you could hang it with the ends between 8' and 12’ apart. With the Family Signature Hammock, the ends should be about 11’ (+/- 2 feet) apart and about 5’ off the ground (+/- 1 foot). Therefore, you can hang the hammock with the ends between 9’ and 13’ apart. You can also extend our double hammocks using hanging straps.
