if you are going to hang the swing on a metal stand in the yard, do you need to order springs?

I am not sure about hanging from a metal stand as we hung the swing under the deck and didn't use any springs. The only thing is that the swing comes with these really big hooks which we put thru eye bolts and you might need to take these off and use springs on the metal stand. I love the swing! Sorry if I haven't been any help.

Hi Glenda. Actually, we 'threw' the hooks over the stand. Works perfectly. We did not get any springs with either product, but this is what we did. We took the extra "rubber ~ plastic??" that was covering the excess chain after fitting it to the height off the ground that we wanted, and we covered the huge hooks with this rubber/plastic. It protects the actual swing frame and it protects the actual huge hooks. Hope this helps. Enjoy the swing !!! Gorgeous products !

No, you do not need to order anything else. All hardware needed comes with the swing. You need to purchase a frame separately. We ordered the flexible flyer swing frame by Wayfair to hang the swing on and we love it. It is stylish and sturdy. So happy with this purchase. Hope this helps! :)

No it does not. The swing is supplied with ample chain length, but you must supply the hangers to attach the swing to the beam. We also obtained snap hooks to quickly connect the chain to the swing hangers.

No you don't. I have the same set. Just be careful. I ordered rear spools and received a swing arm stand

I said no and my husband said yes. He also stated that it depended on the strength of the branch and you could use the chains etc that come with it. I wouldn't use the chains as they would eat into the bark of the branch and eventually harm it. It is your swing and your tree so you will decide anyway. You got two versions with us.

You can attach the swing to a single rope line hanging from the ceiling with an 'S' hook attached to the 'O' ring at the top of the rope cord that comes with the swing. But make sure you hang the swing from a 'main' beam in your ceiling because sheetrock is not nearly strong enough to hold the weight of a person sitting in the swing. I have 2 of these swings hanging from a very large tree branch in my yard.

Love the swing, no problem with rust or anything, it is in a metal stand. Heavy enough so there is no problem with it going side ways. I have bought two of these. Happy with the purchase.

There is no hardware provided. You have to purchase it separately. It's a heavy duty spring that you hook onto both the swing and the hook that it suspends from. It's all very easy. Deb F

No you should be able to just hang the new one. I love my swing. It is really well made. You will love it.

As long as the tree is sturdy, shouldn't be an issue. You'll need to supply all the attachment hardware; chain and bolts to secure the chain to the branch. The swing only comes with the rope and hooks shown in the pic.

yes it comes with ropes, and they are very long. ropes are attached to the swing. I looped them through hooks in a tree, but in theory you could probably just loop over the branch itself with what is provided. but you should look at a separate hanging kit too

No, not at all. I just thought the swing hangers to be sturdier that using eye bolts. Springs are just a comfort factor, for when you 1st sit down it has a liitle give.

The springs on our swing do not squeak. Sorry I could not help with your question.

My husband didn't think the chains were strong enough for us so he went to Home Depot or Lowe's and bought heavy duty chains. I also ordered springs from Amazon that were recommended for swings like this. Go the extra mile (heavy duty chains and springs) and you will be pleased with the results. The springs I bought through Amazon were Century Spring 4002 Porch Swing Spring Set by Century Spring. Hope this helps.

I hung my swing on a tree branch. You have to buy additional chain and hardware to hang it but if done properly, it works just fine. I tried using part of a rubber hose to protect the tree but this prevented the swing from swinging more freely. I had to remove the hose for it to swing properly.

No. I bought one of the metal frames and set it on that. Seems to me that box springs are an outdated concept.

i didnt use any, mine broke so if i buy a second set ill defiantly buy springs. but just so you know these are pretty stiff whips. they have little bend in them.

Not sure what you mean by a stand. I hung my swing with chains from an overhead pergola beam.
