Design
Planned Right From The Start
Every project begins with a clear, workable design.
You receive layout drawings, technical detailing, and a defined specification covering structure, surfacing, and fencing. Designs are developed around budget, site constraints, and intended use, so what’s proposed can actually be delivered.
The focus is on durability, compliance, and long-term performance from the outset.

Manufacture
Built In-house, To Your Specifications
All core structures are made from recycled steel in our South Yorkshire based facility, giving you control, consistency, and long-term reliability. As well as the ability to support repairs or replacements in the future.
Structural steel is hot-dip galvanised as standard to provide corrosion protection, with powder coating applied to achieve the desired colour and finish. Components are built for heavy public use and outdoor exposure.

Installation
Delivered On Time, Every Time
Delivered by experienced teams working across the UK.
This includes groundworks, foundations, steel structures, surfacing, and fencing. All installed to specification and in line with BS EN 1176 standards.
Works are planned carefully with you, particularly in live environments such as schools and public parks, to ensure safe and efficient delivery.
Our installation services include:

Repairs & Maintenance
Extend The Lifespan Of Your Equipment
Protect your investment and extend the life of your facilities with refurbishments and ongoing repair and maintenance. We service facilities we’ve installed and those built by other providers.
Our Repair & Maintenance Services vary depending on the project requirements, but typically include hot-dip galvanising, powder coating, or specialist surfacing systems.
We work closely with you to recommend the most suitable and cost-effective solution for your site, often with a finished product that looks like new.
This covers steel structures and surfacing including:

Phased & Future Ready Development
Grow Your Facility Without Starting Over
Facilities can be planned and delivered in stages to align with available budgets. When we work with you, every project can be adaptable for future growth. We can outline potential future enhancements within the initial quotation.

RPII Playground Inspections
Keep Your Playground Safe & Compliant
Our RPII-accredited inspectors carry out thorough playground and outdoor facility inspections across the UK, giving you the independent assurance your site meets current safety standards.
We offer post-installation checks as well as annual inspections. We provide a detailed written report that identifies any risks and recommends corrective action.
We inspect all outdoor play and sports equipment, including facilities we didn’t install, so you can maintain your duty of care with confidence.
