Border Systems
After handling many similar products as installers, KIDSAFE is convinced that the
molded plastic border systems by "Childforms" are the best around. Their
ADA
ramp is industry standard and their border timbers will not split after a hard blow
from a nine pound sledge hammer (our test standard) which tells a lot! These borders
are easy to move to accommodate expansion of the play area. They also make it easy
to contain the minimum necessary square footage around your play equipment, which
maximizes the functionality of the material you buy, and minimizes the cost. They
are very light weight and relatively inexpensive to ship.
In the past, we have also provided our customers with custom built border systems
built with treated lumber or recycled plastic lumber.
Your loose fill systems will probably also need one or two layers of heavy duty
landscape fabric installed under your surfacing material. These commercial fabric
products are much heavier than anything you can find at home improvement stores.
This is to separate your surfacing materials from the ground beneath it. If your
play area is very well drained, free of anything growing, and generally quite dry,
you can do without the landscaping material.
