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:

  • Padel Court Installation
  • Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) Installation

  • Youth Shelter Installation
  • Street Furniture Installation

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.
