Rope Climbing Equipment

Whether a public playground, school grounds, a park or a nursery school: a climbing net offers space for many children to climb at the same time, up to 98 on the largest climbing pyramids. Here you will find three designs.

The climbing pyramids span a rope net around a central mast made of hot-dip galvanised steel, are supplied with ground anchors and range from 2.50 to 7.50 metres in height. The space net pyramids 300-3D, 400-3D and 600-3D form a three-dimensional rope net in which children climb, swing hand over hand, balance and keep finding new ways up, sideways and back. The climbing towers type C, K and N, together with the rotating climbing net tower and the rotating climbing net pyramid, are more compact; their impact area measures 500 to 700 centimetres in diameter. The climbing tower type N has a large platform that children in wheelchairs can reach directly; you will find further equipment for playing together under inclusive play equipment.

Climbing in the net trains children’s strength, coordination and balance, and develops their spatial thinking. Because each child chooses their own route, the more cautious ones also find their own pace. Our balancing equipment is a good match for balancing close to the ground.

According to the data sheet, the nets are made of Hercules rope, a rope of steel strands each sheathed in synthetic fibres: 16 millimetres thick for climbing pyramids and climbing towers, 20 millimetres for the space net pyramids. The mast, tubes, tensioning elements and anchor lugs of the pyramids are made of hot-dip galvanised steel, and we give a guarantee of 15 years on them.

The free height of fall ranges from 75 centimetres for the space net pyramid 300-3D to 2.60 metres for the space net pyramid 600-3D and is given for each unit in the technical details. The surfacing depends on it: up to 2.00 metres, our safety surfacing tiles or loose-fill material in a layer of at least 20 centimetres are suitable, above that loose-fill material in a layer of at least 30 centimetres. Our safety surfacing calculation shows the details.

The climbing towers type C, K and N stand on a single foundation of 80 by 80 by 60 centimetres, the climbing pyramids 650 and 750 on nine foundations of 120 by 120 by 60 centimetres. When in use, note that children must not wear cycle helmets on climbing nets, because children wearing them can get caught in the ropes.
