Playground Swings

CHOOSING A SWING SET FOR YOUR PLAYGROUND

1.  Safety First. 
Safety Zones with resilient material are necessary around all playground swings. The amount of area required for a safety zone is determined by the height of the swing frame. Doubling the frame height of your playground swings will give you the distance required for the safety zone in front of the swing and in the back of the swing. i.e. A swing frame that is 10 ft. high, needs 40 ft. -- 20ft. in front of and 20 ft. behind the swing set.

2.  Select a Type of Swing Set Frame. 
Arch - Available in 5" or 2-3/8" legs and toprail.  Single or multiple bays using add-a-bay components. 
Contemporary - Available in either 2-way or 3-way end supports, our Contemporary swings offer 2-3/8" legs and toprail.  Frame legs and top pipe use tamper-proof connections. 
Traditional - Available in 3-1/2" or standard 2-3/8" toprails with 2-way or 3-way end supports, a cast fitting connects the frame legs and top pipe. 
Post - Available in single or double post.  Oversized 5" legs and toprail allows you to match your swings with our Nucleus™ play systems.

3.  Select A Seat Type For Your Swings. 
Poly seats, Molded rubber seats and Infant seats.
