Equipment specifications

Measurements for the pieces we build with.

Standard sizes and photos of the climbing panels, ladders, ramps, slides, stairs, overheads, ball pits, and fencing in our gyms. Use them to plan a room, compare options, or model a layout in 3D. Swings and other equipment are chosen and sized during the design of each project.

Placing overheads

Placement rules

These layout rules apply when the pieces above are arranged in a room.

  1. An overhead must sit 6 ft (72 in) away from the wall it runs alongside, so children have room to swing.
  2. Wherever an overhead connects to a wall, that wall needs a rock wall panel or a wall ladder at the connection point.
  3. Overhead lengths vary by room. Build each run from 2 ft tracker segments to reach the length the room needs.
