APPLICATION AND WEIGHT GUIDANCE
All products appearing on the
detailedplay.com website are intended for residential backyard use by
one family and friends unless 'commercial' appears in the product description.
For commercial grade products designed for use in group/public playground
settings, see http://www.detailedplaypro.com.
All playground component manufacturers that Detailed Play Systems is
aware of clearly state: "All playground components are intended
for use by children over the age of 2 and under the age of 13" and
these same manufacturers supply a vast majority of playground components
distributed and sold at retail in the US. Further claims that guide towards
extended application and suitability are at the discretion of the sales
department and what they choose to tell their customer. Application is
not necessarily due to strength of materials that the components are
made from or weight limits, it is due to the target market that use playground
products regularly. We offer the following table to provide weight and
application guidance:

ABOUT DETAILED PLAY SYSTEMS
Detailed Play Systems was
started in July, 1998 with a vision of creating an excellent playground
value by helping parents to install affordable, safe, and durable forts
and swingsets along with fun playground equipment for their children. The
company's core product is the Jungle Fort Swingset and also offers home
playground equipment needed to upgrade existing sets. Products
are delivered directly to customers using internet and mail-order catalogs,
allowing busy parents the convenience of fast purchase and home delivery
of playground equipment and complete kits... everything needed to build
a great playground except standard sized lumber! Parents who are
using Detailed's products are saving up to 50% off the retail installation
price for similar pre- fabricated fort swingsets. |
WHY DETAILED PLAY SYSTEMS
Detailed Play provides customers
with the highest quality backyard playground per dollar.
We provide superior products, excellent service, and unsurpassed value in playground
equipment. |

A Clear Playground Choice
Since 1998, our Build@Home Swing Set Kits and Detailed Plan For Jungle
Fort Swing Set ©1998-2012 have introduced a new backyard playground
assembly process that shows parents, in detail, how to easily build
their own professional quality backyard playground for their kids at
a fraction of the cost of comparable pre-built playgrounds. The idea
is simple yet effective. Purchase kits, plans, playground accessories
and components of your choice from Detailed Play. Purchase readily
available heavy-duty 4x4, 2x8, and 2x6 lumber locally using our Lumber
Purchase Guide showing exactly whats needed for each configuration.
Then build your own playground and realize savings of up to 50% or
more vs. comparable pre-fabricated play structures without sacrificing
size, safety, strength, quality, or features.
Detailed
Play Systems takes the guesswork and the sticker shock out of getting
a high quality backyard playground for the kids. We start by providing
an informative web presence and knowledgable telephone-based customer
service and support, and then follow by delivering products and
designs that will produce joyful backyard playground experiences
over the long term. To assure that we achieve our #1 business goal
- long term customer satisfaction - we offer only those products,
kits, plans, designs, and components that are built to last and
hold up well to the outdoor elements and the demands of steady
use over time. We design our products with safety, value, and the
needs and interests of families foremost, we're a consumer-oriented
business. Detailed Play designs, markets, sells, and fully supports
the products we offer to customers.
All
of our playset kits and configurations use "all bolt construction",
no nails that can work loose, no cheap fasteners. All hardware
is recessed into the wood to prevent dangerous protrusions. We
deliver hot-dipped galvanized bolting in our kits, not zinc-plated
bolting that won't perform as well. And our designs use 2 bolts
per joint, not just 1, because this will help keep the structure
stronger and more stable than other inadequately fastened play
structures. Climbing, sliding, and swinging activities are always
safely separated in all of our configurations - our inclined step
ladder is located on its own side of the fort not right next to
the slide. Children coming down the slide can inadvertently interfere
with another child's balance while climbing up the ladder when
a step ladder is located right next to the slide. Our inclined
step ladder includes full-length handrails for added upper-body
stability and balance while climbing up the ladder. The quality
of our plans, hardware kits, and design configurations are complemented
by the top quality playground equipment components we deliver -
the same level of quality play components as found on expensive
high-end sets.
Whether you want just a fort club house only, or a complete backyard play
system with fort, wooden swing sets, monkey bars, climbing rock wall, or
just an individual swing, wave or spiral slide, or any other backyard playground
component to upgrade an existing playground, consider Detailed Play Systems.
We offer a complete line of playground plans, complete kits, parts, components,
and accessories to help build fun backyard wooden swing sets and fort/clubhouse
play areas for your child.
Do it yourself, control quality, have the flexibility of building the configuration
you want using the lumber materials you want... and save! Our Detailed Plans
make it easy. Save hundreds or even thousands of dollars vs. the cost of
similar pre-built wooden playgrounds and get the added personal satisfaction
of building something special, fun, and long-lasting for your children and
their friends as they watch you, their dad, their mom, their grandparent,
or any other significant person in their life, build every child's dream
- a backyard playground to call their own!
