  If you are comparing play equipment from different suppliers here are a few questions you may consider.......  
 

How strong and sturdy is the construction?

We use 4"x 4" timbers for the structure and super-strong 4"x 6" for the swing beams, so the systems do not wobble and sway if several children are playing. And ask about age limits - you'll find most other systems have maximum ages limits of 12 or even 10 years. We don't. Our systems will support as many children who want to play; and adults too. And we don't rely on ground anchors either - sets that do are too light weight and flimsy not to topple when children are playing.

 
 

How is the set fitted together?

Metal brackets and bolt-through connections can work loose with use. We use wood-on-wood construction, solidly anchored with 3" and 5" coach screws - around 100 of them on our smallest set. Our timber is properly machined and finished too; no round logs bolted together.

 
 

Is the hardware properly countersunk?

Ours is, and is all stainless steel . Unlike many we do not use nails or staples in the construction - these can come loose and cause injury.

 
 

What if the ground is not level?

Most gardens are not ! Most of our competitors' systems sit flat on the ground so follow whatever slope there is on the lawn. We have a unique levelling design as standard which allows us to build the jungle gym level and true whatever the slope or bumps.

 
 

What about splinters?

The more rounding on the timbers, the less chance of splinters from the edges. Many cheaper systems economise here - our timber has beautiful smooth planed surfaces and properly rounded edges.

 
 

How long is the guarantee?

We offer a LIFETIME Guaranteee to the original purchaser on our timber. See catalogue for details.

 
 

Will the set need maintenance?

Our sets need no maintenance - just an optional annual treatment of water sealer or stain to keep the warm colour of the wood.

 
 

Are the swings on ropes or chains?

Ropes can fray and snap with use - we use chains because they are safer and more durable. We have plastic sheathing on the chains (no trapped fingers) and top-quality swing hangings too.

 
 

What is the company's history?

We have been selling Jungle Gyms in the UK since 1996 and now there are hundreds of systems in private homes up and down the country, as well as in pubs, hotels, schools etc.

 
 

What is included in the price?

All our systems include what is illustrated in picture - we do not have a low headline price then charge you extra for such necessities as swings and slides. And don't forget that our systems are modular so you don't have to choose "off the page" - if you want something put together to suit your space or requirements just ask.

 
 

What about safety standards?

Home Front Jungle Gym equipment is professionally designed with safety as a priority and all play activities are kept separate - we don't put monkey bars over swings where children can fall onto each other, for example.
Our equipment complies fully with EN71 which regulates strength, stability and safety, and we can provide systems to comply with EN1176- the standard for commercial and public playgrounds.

So many suppliers claim they offer quality outdoor play equipment, but we bet that if you compare our specifications with theirs you'll see what makes ours "the finest outdoor play equipment"
