Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: What is the maximum ramp gradient on this system?

A: The ramp gradient is engineered strictly to a 1:12 slope ratio, complying with accessibility regulations for public commercial play equipment.

Q: What surface treatments are applied to steel posts?

A: Posts receive an interior and exterior hot-dip galvanized zinc coating followed by an electrostatically applied UV-stable polyester powder coat finish.

Q: Are replacement parts available for modular components?

A: All structural panels, clamps, and fasteners are manufactured to standardized modular dimensions and kept in continuous production inventory.

Q: What safety surfacing depth is required beneath the structure?

A: Impact-absorbing surfacing must maintain a minimum thickness corresponding to the 1800mm critical fall height rating per ASTM F1292 standards.

Q: How are the deck platforms secured against weather accumulation?

A: Decks feature a punched-perforation drainage pattern preventing water pooling while maintaining a slip-resistant textured surface texture.
