All of Our Play Systems are Designed and Manufactured with SAFETY as Our NUMBER ONE PRIORITY!
Plan Your Project...
To ensure the safety of your Vinyl Adventure Play System you should give considerable thought to the location and surroundings. Here is a list of how to place your play system and recommended ground cover to help protect your child.
- Play system must be located on level ground.
- Stationary equipment such as slides should have a 6 foot perimeter around them, free from obstacles such as fences, trees, houses, and low hanging wires.
- Swinging equipment should be a minimum distance of twice the height of the swing beam away from obstacles such as fences, trees, houses, and low hanging wires.
- Listed are several ground cover options for your play system which will increase safety. These loose fill materials should not be installed over hard surfaces such as asphalt or concrete.
