The tree swing kit by Royal Oak is one of the most popular and best rated at Amazon.   It is strong, durable, and easy to install – no drilling or tools needed.  And it can support all types of swings you might hang from a tree (or pergola beam or anything similar):   discs, saucers, hammocks, classic wooden swings, bucket swings, tire swings, porch and patio swings, etc.

Here is what’s included in the Royal Oak swing hanging kits:

  • 2” wide straps made of commercial grade nylon (you choose the color, length, and whether you want single or double straps)
  • carabiner hooks (with screw locks) made of industrial strength steel
  • a carrying bag (in case, for example, you want to bring a swing or hammock when you go camping)
  • easy-to-read picture instructions; and
  • a bonus spinner (handy if you’d like your swing to spin around)

A parent’s #1 concern when it comes to hanging a swing is SAFETY, and the Royal Oak tree swing kit gets top ratings because of their impressive list of safety features.  Check these out:

  • the nylon straps are so strong that each supports 2200 pounds (that means that two straps can support a whopping 4400 pounds!)
  • the straps are 2” wide (the thicker straps can support more weight and will also better protect the tree bark)
  • the straps are 100% weatherproof, UV resistant, and designed to withstand temperature extremes
  • the carabiner hooks (included) are made of industrial strength steel and include screw locks (so that whatever you are hanging will not slip out of the carabiner).  Each carabiner can support 1000 pounds.  The bonus spinner (which you may or may not need) also holds 1000 pounds.

The seller stands behind its excellent product with a lifetime warranty and 100% money back guarantee.

Royal Oak sells an 8-foot strap that is perfect for hanging a tire or saucer swing.  It’s not adjustable because it’s more durable and secure as a continuous loop.  You shorten it by wrapping it around the tree branch as many times as needed to achieve the desired length.  If you want adjustable straps, Royal Oak has 4-foot ones (you can choose single or double).

The Lion’s Garden is another excellent choice for adjustable straps for tree swings.  Their straps can be adjusted to any length from 5 to 10 feet (which eliminates a lot of measuring and guesswork).  One nice thing about adjustable straps is that it allows your swing to hang level even if your tree limb isn’t exactly horizontal.

These straps are made from top quality polyester with double stitching technology – they look something like car seat belts -- and each strap can support 1688 pounds.  The attached carabiners are made of heavy duty atomic steel.

It’s easy to install them, easy to adjust the length, and easy to relocate them.

The Lion’s Garden stands behind its product with a 110% money back guarantee (that’s your money back, plus 10% extra!) if you return the product within 60 days.

Looking for a snazzier color strap instead of the standard black?  Check out these less expensive yellow ones by Benicci.  Their kit includes:

  • two straps made of industrial strength, all weather, polyester webbing (10’ long, 2” wide)
  • solid stainless steel rings
  • two extra strength (zinc alloy) screw lock carabiners with a combined break strength of 2000lb; and
  • a nylon storage pouch

Here’s how easy it is to install these straps:  You toss them over a solid branch or beam, attach the hooks to your swing, and -- voila! – kids are happily swinging within minutes.

Note that these straps are not adjustable.  You wrap them around a tree branch (or beam) until you have the desired length.

Benicci’s warranty includes a full refund (within 60 days) or a replacement product (within one year).

Here’s a tip for buyers  
It is helpful to first decide which tree branch will be supporting the swing.  (Make sure it’s a good strong one, not a dead one!)  Then choose a swing and note its length (including ropes or chains).  Take measurements and calculate how long the hanging straps should be. 

Tree swing straps buy you peace of mind and the confidence that KIDS WILL BE SAFE at play. They also protect trees from the damage that would result from chains or ropes.  Don’t skimp when it comes to safety.  Buy yourself the best tree swing straps you can afford, then you can relax when the kids head out to play on the swing.

Royal Oak is our top pick.  Rhino StrapMate and Wildjue also make fine strap kits that are highly rated, super strong, weatherproof, and easy to install.
