If you plan on leaving your rope hammock outdoors, be sure your hanging equipment is able to withstand the conditions where you live. If you live near the ocean, in an area with frequent rains or other considerations, you'll want your hanging equipment to be galvanized steel or other material labeled specifically as 'weather resistant'. Untreated wood, metal and rope are particularly vulnerable to ocean salt and heavy weather. Know you are purchasing a rope hammock that can stand up to the conditions in which it will be hanging.
