What type of ground surface is required under a Jungle Gym climbing frame?

For the best and safest play experience, it’s important to install your Jungle Gym climbing frame on the right type of ground surface.


Recommended Surfaces

  • Unpaved, Steady Surface:
    • Grass: A natural and forgiving surface that provides good shock absorption.
    • Sand: A solid layer of sand also offers excellent stability and cushioning.


Surfaces to Avoid

  • Hard Surfaces:
    • Concrete, gravel, or asphalt do not provide the necessary shock absorption for safe play and can increase the risk of injuries.
  • Sloping Ground:
    • Uneven or sloped surfaces can cause instability, putting extra stress on joints and connections, which may loosen or break over time.


By choosing a flat, unpaved, and steady surface, you’ll ensure your climbing frame stays secure and safe, providing years of carefree fun for your children!
