Q. Do I have to have safety surfacing?
A. Yes! It is absolutely necessary to have adequate protective surfacing under any elevated play surface, such as a deck or slide. The depth of the material is determined by the heighth of the play components.
Q. What is the most worry-free safety surfacing material?
A. The most worry-free surfacing material is a rubber surface that is poured in place and forms a solid rubber surface. It is available in many colors and can be customized to include logos and designs!
Q. Do your shade canopies keep the rain off?
A. The standard fabric repels approximately 80% of the rain. A special PVC fabric can be ordered which will repel 100% of the rain.
Q. How much protection from the sun does a shade canopy offer?
A. Our canopies offer invaluable protection from the sun! Not only do they block 97% of the harmful UV rays, they provide 85% shade and are 15 degrees cooler than conventional steel roofs.
Q. Are your playgrounds designed to be ADA accessible?
A. Yes! We always keep in mind the abilities of all users when designing a playground. Our site amenities are also available in ADA styles to allow access to everyone.
Q. Doesn’t steel playground equipment rust?
A. Not ours! Playcraft’s support posts for the playground equipment are made from steel pipe that is galvanize-coated inside and out. The steel components are precision welded, hand-cleaned, sandblasted, phosphate washed and sealed thoroughtly in a mult-stage bath, then powder-coated using an exclusive two-coat process. This ensures protection from the elements that cause rust.
