At PlayEquip there is nothing we like to get our teeth stuck into than a site specific play structure. The artistic licence, the conceptual designs and, most importantly, the happiness and amazement from our clients upon seeing the finalised project.
Bespoke
‘Bespoke’ can be a daunting word for many. Clients have often perceived ‘bespoke’ and ‘site-specific’ as a gamble – on their time, on the longevity of the structure and even a gamble on whether they will get what they are looking for. However, we at PlayEquip like to see it as a service that helps a client get exactly what they are in need of, whilst still offering the same reassurance, durability and low maintenance as if they would have bought our ‘off the shelf’ products.
Components
As with PlayEquip’s off the shelf products, the components used for the site specific play structures are tried and tested. The oak timbers used provide a guarantee of 15 years with the potential of up to 25 years of use along with the stainless steel fixings and steel substructures providing 20 years of guaranteed durability. All of which is an incredible time span considering other alternatives can provide as little as 10 years of use, not to mention the aesthetic becomes outdated far sooner.
Clients have noted how they enjoy how we incorporate steel substructures and ground fixings into wooden equipment. Using the timber to clad and soften the appearance and steel components, substructures and fixings to increase the structures’ durability it allows for a natural aesthetic of wood whilst giving the client the reassurance of structural strength and durability of steel.
Maintenance
At PlayEquip we have a multitude of maintenance teams situated around the country ready to ensure that maintenance is quickly and efficiently carried out. No job is too big or small as we strive to not only finish a project with a happy client, but continue to keep a happy client.
All of the parts used with both our ‘off the shelf products’ and bespoke products are also easily accessible meaning that any upkeep and tweaks are able to be completed with little waiting involved.
Semi-bespoke
We also offer a semi-bespoke design service, adapting ‘off the shelf’ designs free of charge to make the most of all spaces and budgets. A great example of this is the Triple Platform Climbing Frame, this piece of equipment can be adapted in a multitude of ways – adding height, swapping or changing obstacles and adding extra pieces to it such as a climbing wall or platforms.
PlayEquip bespoke and semi-bespoke play structures and equipment cater to all spaces and environments to provide unique site specific pieces.
Why we are different
Our company thrives on a challenge with years of experience of beautiful site specific bespoke designs and building awe inspiring play structures. From inclusive wooden ramp structures for all abilities to conceptual pirate ships suspended from pillars. PlayEquip’s designs use tried and tested methods of construction and component parts that have the durability of ‘off the shelf’ products which can equally be easily maintained.
Communication
Ultimately, the best way for clients to get exactly what they are looking for is to get in touch and let us know about their requirements and ideas. This way we are able to work closely with each client to ensure the brief is not only met, but exceeded.
At PlayEquip, we believe a bespoke site-specific approach is often the best way to optimise any budget and to help a play space reach its maximum potential.
