Product Information

A wooden climbing frameis an excellent investment for your child’s future, helping them to grow up happy and healthy. Since you can paint and decorate the wooden structure however and whenever you like, it offers endless ever-changing possibilities as a bespoke outdoor adventure playground.

To do this, wait until it’s completely dry, then use a soft brush to remove dirt from the structure. If metal and plastic parts need cleaning, such as swings and slides, use a damp cloth and a mix of soap and warm water to wipe them down. Try to avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals. Not only will a Plum Toys climbing frame be an excellent source of entertainment for your kids, but they can also be an attractive feature in your garden. The natural colour of the timber can blend into any surroundings, so they won’t be an eyesore – it’s actually quite easy to incorporate these Plum climbing frames into your outdoor design. Look out for vertical constraints like washing lines or overhanging tree branches before you build the climbing frame. These structures can take a lot of time and effort to dismantle and rebuild if you need to move them, and installing them in an unsuitable place can also invalidate the warranty. One of the best plastic climbing frames for toddlers is this one by Little Tikes. The design has been going strong for many years now, certainly since before my teens were toddlers, so you can be assured that it’s a good one and built to last. Outdoor climbing framesare designed to be anchored securely to the ground with no sharp edges or exposed parts, ensuring safe play. As the structures are fairly large, there must be at least 6 feet of clear space around the climbing playsetin every direction. If you’re concerned about children falling from a height, you can put down rubber safety mats, which we sell in smalland largesizes.With so much to see and do, a wooden outdoor play centreguarantees hours of fun and exercise for little ones, lasting throughout their childhood.

CURVED EDGES Its curved edges and low climbing platforms help little adventurers on their mission to explore.

As long as the structure is within the limits, you shouldn’t need planning permission – but you should still let your neighbours know you’re installing it. Since platforms must be no higher than 0.3 metres (just under 1 foot), it’s likely you’ll still need permission for anything higher than this. Once assembled, your sturdy new outdoor climbing frameshould last for many years. Each product is made using premium pressure-treated timber, including Southern Yellow Pine, Redwood Pine, and European Spruce. The corners are planed and rounded, with domed or countersunk screws and bolts to ensure a safe playing environment.

ABOUT US

You will find that our outdoor climbing frames, whether they are made from reliable timber or waterproof metal, feature a multitude of ladders, ropes, slides, and swings.

The majority of Plum climbing frames are suitable for children starting from 3 years old and up, meaning that toddlers at least 36 months old should be able to play on the equipment safely. Additionally, there are specially designed Plum play centres for toddlers that make an ideal first climbing frame for children aged between 12–18 months. The manufacturer’s manual that comes with the product should explain how each part of the structure is designed to be used safely, so you should read through this when installing the structure and then teach your child the right way to climb and play on each feature from the start. While practising logic and critical thinking to find the best routes and tactics, children also learn how to assess risks. Having the independence to test their limits in a safe and supervised environment will give your child more confidence in new situations and stimulate their sense of adventure.Of course, it’s important to keep on top of maintenanceby regularly treating and cleaning the wood to protect it from damage. Parts made of metal and plastic should be cleaned periodically to prevent rust and corrosion, and swing hooks may need to be lubricated if they start squeaking when your child is swinging. Now your children can enjoy the great outdoors from their garden and get their exercise at home, without staying indoors all day. As long as you look after your Plum play centre, it should last for a very long time. The wood has already been pressure-treated to prevent rot and infestations, but you should still clean your Plum climbing frame any time you notice it getting a bit dirty.
