Commercial Playground Equipment for Every School
School Playgrounds
Built for Texas
School playground equipment must withstand daily use, extreme heat, and strict safety requirements. Our playground systems are:
- Commercial-grade & code-compliant (ASTM, CPSC, and ADA considerations)
- Designed for Texas weather — heat, UV exposure, and heavy use
- Scaled for student safety, supervision, and traffic flow
- Available with shade structures to reduce surface temperatures
We design with longevity in mind so your playground remains a safe, functional asset for years to come.
Designed for Safety & Longevity
Every commercial playground we install is:
- IPEMA-certified and compliant with ASTM & CPSC safety standards
- Designed to meet ADA accessibility guidelines
- Engineered for Texas weather — heat, wind, and heavy use
- Built with commercial-grade materials for long-term durability
We design with supervision lines, age separation (PK–2, 3–5, 6–12), and proper use zones in mind — protecting both students and your district.
Turnkey Project Management
We don’t just sell equipment — we manage the entire project.
- Site planning & layout design
