How does the swing attach to the set? Do i need to buy carabiners or s hooks, or does the swing chain come with them?

It doesn't come with them so you need to buy them too. Either s hooks or carabiners or something like that would work, just be sure they're rated to handle enough weight.

It has hooks to attach to the hardware already on your swingset. If you are hanging it from something other than a swingset, you will need to buy hooks.

There are some hooks you can buy that screw into the wood beams, and then you can hang the swing. When you go to home depot ask someone there. Explain about putting up the swing, someone will point you in the direction of what you need to buy. Thats what I did.

It is versatile and can be attached to a standard swingset. Each rope end has a metal, oval-shaped fastener. ( like this: http://www.teamsynergyinc.com/equipment/Images/carabiners-and-links/2401%20-%20.5%20inch%20Rapid%20Screw%20Link%20-%20Steel.jpg )

I've hung our swing to our deck. Go to Home Depot or Lowes and buy the following two chains(note the will cut the chain to your required length), two eye hooks(to go into the beams), and two quick links.

I have a metal swing set and we had no problem hooking it up. It does come with the chain and it has D-rings which are used to hook it up. My kids love it.

It comes with a chain and S hook on the end of the chain. Mine is hanging from a tree limb. I'm sure you could improvise with the chain and hang from a pole.

My swing came with chains. I prefer them over cables as you can shorten length easier. No mounting hardware.I picked two large eye hooks and used a two carabiner clasps, for quick release on stormy days.

I hung mine under my back porch roof. If you buy two screw eye hooks, you'll be able to hang the swing. However, when I did that, I found that the swing wasn't low enough for me to lift my granddaughter into it; so I bought two 12" pieces of chain at Lowes and two carabiners (to hook the chains into the screw eye hooks). That worked perfectly, and my granddaughter loves the swing! The screw eye hooks, chain, and carabiners I bought are fairly heavy duty. Just make sure they fit together, and also make sure that the carabiners that come attached to the ropes on the swing fit into the chain links.

We had to buy a chain and a hook at the local Lowes but other than that nothing. That cost less than $20. The swing is awesome.

You should be able to use the original hooks (most swings use 'eyes'). If you have to attach to eyes, and don't have the right hardware, a chain repair link or heavy carabineer will work just fine. Our granddaughter loves this swing. It took her a while to figure out how to make it go, but once she did she's flying almost every day. She's much safer on it than an open seat swing.

Hello! The swing comes with the chain but not attached. Your inside project sounds fun! Good luck! :)

Two ropes attached, one on either side, just as in photo, and each rope has a ring at the end of it. We would have preferred a swivel hook to be included, but it wasn't and we are still on the lookout for one. We just added this swing to our backyard swing set and it swings back and forth but it would be way better with the swivel hook, then kids could go round and round. Super sturdy swing, by the way, and we did have to tie the ropes in an extra knot on each side because they are quite long for use on our standard swing set. I'm 200 lbs and the swing does fine!

run the chains through the chain hole and attach to the front and back bolts on the bottom of the swing; put a nut on each bolt to secure the chain. Make sure everything is all tight and you are ready to hang the swing.

It comes with the necessary chains and 2 springs. You can screw two eyebolts into your header if you choose. I'd make sure they were at least 5/16ths but I'd recommend 3/8. 2/ 1/2 to 3 inches long. Space them as near to 5 feet apart (4 feet for the smaller swing) to avoid pinch points and to properly distribute the weight. If you have access to the top of the header I would suggest purchasing two swing assembly hangers and then drill holes through the headers and attach the hangers with lag bolts. Hope this helps.

No the chains/ hooks are included. I added more chain because the height of my support was very high. These are very comfortable swings and need no springs. Extremely nice looking and durable. Good price.

I have 2 chains we hung from a tree years ago for my daughter to have various swings as she grew up. I now use those to chains and a 'S' hook I got to hang my chair hammock. The chair just has a loop at the top made with same fabric as the rest of the chair.
