| City - Frequently Asked Questions Which
age group does your City equipment suit? Which age group does your City equipment suit? We have toddler
and junior tower ranges which suit children from 18 months old up
to 12 years and a wide range of springers and dynamic moving equipment
suitable for children up to 14 years old. These ranges are suitably
complimented by an attractive range of stainless steel furniture.
Stainless steel
has been chosen for its renowned properties of being a tough and
durable material. This means it lasts longer and allows for minimal
maintenance for you.
Do you make the equipment yourselves? Yes, we have
a dedicated manufacturing facility to produce our stainless steel
equipment based in Ulverston, Cumbria.
What safety standards does the equipment comply with? As with all
of our play equipment our City range complies with the safety standard
BSEN 1176 and every single item carries the prestigious Kitemark.
Is the range DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) inclusive? Yes, Playdale
welcomes the introduction of the DDA Act and fully supports the
principles of its objective of ensuring that wherever possible everyone
will be treated favourably.
Will the steel get hot in bright sunshine? Stainless steel
will get warm but not as warm as some painted steels particularly
darker colours.
Is stainless steel equipment expensive? Stainless steel
is generally expensive due to its quality and properties. Playdale’s
clever design of our City range allows it to be competitively priced
against other painted, mild steel equivalents. Don’t forget
that stainless steel is virtually maintenance free reducing future
costs for you.
What will happen if vandals graffiti it? Graffiti is
easily removed by any form of readily available graffiti wipes.
Because our steel isn’t painted, there is no risk of damaging
coating systems by using these wipes. Graffiti wipes are available
from our After Sales Department.
If your product is not painted how do you provide colour? Our City range
is complemented by the clever use of other vandal resistant materials
incorporated into the design such as a fabulous range of colourful
CGL Panels.
Do your swings have an anti-wrap design? Our swings are
provided with anti-wrap bearings as standard and are self lubricating.
Our unique frame design reduces the incidence of chains and seats
becoming caught around the swing legs or top pole. The use of swivel
joints prevents twisting when seats are thrown through the chain.
All of these clever design aspects mean less maintenance for you.
What are your guarantees on structural steel? Guarantees
on structural steel stands at 20 years against failure with an estimated
life expectancy of 100 plus years.
Can we install the equipment ourselves? If you wish
to install the equipment yourselves the delivery will arrive with
fully exploded diagrams in electronic format which allows for simple
and easy instructions.
Do you have installations that I can go and visit? Yes, why not

sites for your area.
