Children view their own personal swingset the same way newlyweds view a white picket fence. Swingsets are an entertaining way to get the whole family together outside the house. To fully enjoy your swingset safely, it is best to mark it off with a border and line the area with a soft surface.

• Measure the area of ground you plan to border for your swingset. Playground borders are usually at least a foot tall, so ensure your border will not intersect with any of your swingset equipment. Work your measurements around the specific kit you plan to use. A list of different kits can be found on the Frame It All website.backyard playground equipment

• Mark the perimeter of your swingset area by driving stakes in at the corners. Use string to connect each stake. This gives you a clear vision for where your borders will go and ensures your anchor points line up.

• Take the anchor points (metal stakes with attachments on either side to secure planks) from your kit. Replace your original stakes with these new anchor points.

• Insert your planks into the anchor points. They should slide into place easily, as you have already aligned the borders with the string.

• Fill in the area with dirt, mulch or wood chips. The new borders will act as a container for whichever you choose. This addition acts as a safety precaution, providing soft ground for kids to play.backyard playground equipment
