Safety & Maintenance

Playspaces Designed for You

Many playground injuries stem from children playing on equipment that isn’t designed for their age group. Designing products and playspaces that excite, engage and fulfill children at their level and continue to safely challenge them helps encourage play in the space that is designed for their age range.

Safety Certifications

Burke's products are designed and tested to meet and exceed the world's most rigorous safety standards.

Age Appropriate Signage

Clear signage that offers easy to understand information for parents and caregivers about supervision, age ranges and hours of operation is an important part of playground safety. Burke offers signage to complement any playspace and in a variety of languages, so it is perceptible for everyone and blends naturally into the playground setting.

Playground Safety & Maintenance

The National Program for Playground Safety has a Supervision Safety Kit that we recommend because it helps supervisors and educators be prepared on the playground.

Maintenance is an important part of playground safety and your new Burke play structure comes with a FREE Maintenance Kit complete with a customized playground maintenance schedule, manual, touch-up paint and graffiti remover.
