ProfessionalCustomer Installation: Build it Your Way
With this option, the customer is responsible for assembling and installing their equipment, which is often the best way to save money and afford more equipment.
First, the customer inspects the installation site for proper grading, underground utilities, and zoning compliance. Then, they clear debris, secure materials, and plan safety surfacing zones. Next, they assemble a team and review the instructions carefully. Finally, using the right tools, they test equipment during assembly, and double-check connections for safety.
While it requires effort and careful planning, this option gives you hands-on experience building your playground from the ground up.
With this option, the customer is responsible for assembling and installing their equipment, which is often the best way to save money and afford more equipment.
Major factors to consider before choosing this option are the knowledge, experience, and availability of your volunteers. Also consider if you possess the right tools and equipment to complete the job safely and efficiently.
We reccommend you set aside time in advance when your volunteers can meet to discuss if they possess the necessary tools, equipment and experience to make this option worthwhile.
Supervised Installation: Expertise Meets Community Effort
Combine the energy of your community or volunteers with the knowledge of a certified playground safety inspector. A supervised installation ensures your playground structure is assembled correctly while saving money compared to a fully professional service.
With a supervised installation, a professional supervisor ensures compliance with ASTM guidelines. Volunteers learn critical safety practices to maintain playground safety in the future. It’s also a cost-effective way to install your playground while staying safe.
Supervised installations combine your team’s enthusiasm with expert oversight to complete the job right.
Save thousands of dollars on your project, and ensure that your installation is efficient and error-free by choosing a supervised installation.
This option requires the customer to provide all labor and tools for installing the equipment. We send an installation supervisor to provide valuable knowledge and help coordinate your volunteers effectively.
For customers with the manpower to install their equipment but a lack of knowledge and experience, supervision by a certified playground installer is a more cost-effective option than full professional installation.
