How it is possible to install SAPEKOR playground equipment?

We always deliver our products with detailed installation manual. Basically, there are two basic ways to set SAPEKOR playground equipment in concrete. The first is the classic pouring of concrete – here it is necessary to have well-prepared holes and the element seated in the perfect plane. The second variant is mounting on the so-called „On foot“. In this case, firstly prepare concrete block into which the game element is screwed. This variant is much more accurate because the focus of plane is made without the actual playground element and can be prepared in advance.

How properly take care about a stainless steel playground?

For proper function it is essential to keep the playset from stainless steel clean. There's no need to treat or paint the stainless steel, which is a great cost savings over wooden playground elements. For cleaning is recommended to use hot water and soap or conventional materials for cleaning of stainless steel. You can know it, for example, from your kitchen. However, it should be avoided cleaners containing chlorine.

What is safety area and how to choose an ideal solution?

Every playset or playground equipment has a safety impact area around. It is a soft landing space you should have around your playset. You can choose a different impact absorbing surfaces based on the critical fall height (CFH) of each playset. We reccomend to use a rubber tiles, because of its properties. It is easy to maintain, easy to keep it clean and easy to change it. It is much better choice than standard gravel or sand.

How to choose the thickness of the rubber tiles?

It is always necessary to choose a thickness to meet the critical fall height of your playground element. So if you have an assembly where the fall height is 1.5m you must choose the appropriate thickness of the rubber tiles. In this particular case this will be 45 mm* (*SAPEKOR rubber tiles – thickness could be different from other manufacturers). Or you can contact our team and we will help you to choose the ideal thickness.

How to install a rubber tiles?

We give detailed installation instructions to each order and the installation itself is very simple. In the case of a square design tiles with thickness from 35 mm can be connected by plastic pins. We always recommend to install rubber tiles by the way for binding („the brick“). This step will prevent lifting the corners and unwanted shifts of rubber tiles. In the case of puzzle shape is installation even easier – only „snap“ into each individual part of the tile.
