Our exclusive leveling system was developed through more then 26
years of installation experience. This unique leveling system ensures
safe installation on un-level properties.
While your jungle gym will be level and safe some of the activities will be
affected by the sloping property (Diagram A ). If your swing beam is installed
downhill (or uphill), the swing position closest to the end will be lower to (or
further from the ground) (Diagrams A).
To determine play area size, it is recommended that you add six feet to the
jungle gym dimensions on all sides. However, besides swing beam side supports
and other low traffic areas it is not critical to have a six foot “play area”.
Installing a resilient surfacing under the jungle gym is always recommended and
can be done AFTER your jungle gym is installed.
