5 Things to Look for When Choosing Commercial Playground Equipment for Your County Parks

Choosing the Right Equipment for Your Community

Commercial playground equipment is meant to be enjoyed by the entire community for years to come. That being said, choosing the right piece of equipment is all the time more important, leaving you with a decision that will be the cornerstone of years of memories to be made. Don’t worry – you don’t have to make this decision alone. Zoom Recreation is here today to break down the most important commercial playground features to keep in mind when in the market for new equipment.

Top 5 Qualities to Consider When Choosing Playground Equipment

1. Safety

The last thing any of us would want is for a day of fun to turn into an unforeseen unfortunate event. Though commercial playground equipment has come a long way since the days of the poorly designed accidents waiting to happen we played on as kids, you still have to do your due diligence finding suitably safe playgrounds these days. Fortunately, Zoom has plenty of safe brands and products to recommend for your park. From surfacing to modern equipment, your playground can exceed your safety expectations.

2. Durability

To make sure the equipment is safe and enjoyable for all, you’ll want to invest in durable equipment that will benefit your park long-term. Durability, however, isn’t only hinged on the manufacturer side of the process; a less-than-apt installer could make your perfectly sound structure very unsafe. CPSI-certified installers will provide your park with a structure that is assembled to code to ensure optimal safety and longevity.

3. Suitability

Know your audience. Is your park heavily attended, requiring a large playground structure? Or is your park on the smaller side, require only modest playground equipment? Figure out what kind of amenities you’ll need – such as swings, play structures, slides and more.

4. Enjoyable for All

ADA compliancy should be among your top priorities in 2019. Your county parks should be accessible to all, and that’s not all that hard to do nowadays. Numerous products have been designed to benefit everyone, allowing everyone to get in on the fun despite certain needs.

5. Theming

Are you wanting to take your park to the next level? Play structures can be creatively and artfully designed to add an extra sense of adventure and inspiration. Themed play structures are a hit at every park. Children running around and playing on the equipment are transported to a different world, meaning that themed playground equipment provides an escape for your local community.
