Playground<br />
All Berliner Seilfabrik equipment requires little maintenance<br />
and involves virtually no follow-up costs. Thanks to its robust<br />
construction, the equipment is extremely durable. Therefore,<br />
we guarantee our products for a period of up to <strong>10</strong> years.<br />
Refer to our general terms of business for further information.<br />
High-quality cars have to be inspected regularly. The same<br />
applies to high-quality play equipment in order to guarantee<br />
ongoing safety. For this purpose, our staff and authorized<br />
retailers are trained in the specific maintenance requirements<br />
of our equipment. We will be glad to provide you with any<br />
information regarding our maintenance service. Our economical<br />
maintenance contract guarantees the durability of our<br />
equipment and the safety of children, according to the safety<br />
standard ASTM.<br />
We always have time for our customers. Our comprehensive<br />
service accompanies you across all stages of development<br />
of your individual playground, from the first plan to the maintenance<br />
of the completed structure. Our extensive experience<br />
assists you in planning and creating your ideal play landscape.<br />
We design your playground to encompass your ideas and<br />
plans with optimal safety and maximum play value.<br />
In 1990, the United States adopted the Americans with Disabilities<br />
Act (ADA). This law is a milestone, protecting people<br />
with disabilities from discrimination. It includes, among other<br />
criteria, protected areas for workers and public transport, but<br />
also public squares, parks and playgrounds. It is a valuable law,<br />
protecting our human rights. The ADA changed something –<br />
in the minds, on the streets and in parks, but also in the design<br />
of individual play equipment.<br />
But what does it mean in detail when we say that a playground<br />
is accessible and what should you take into account when you<br />
want to design an inclusive play area?<br />
All new and renovated parks must have an accessible path<br />
leading to the playground. All play equipment of a certain size<br />
must have transfer stations installed. These stations enable a<br />
child to move, or transfer, from his or her wheelchair on to the<br />
play structure, providing an easy climbing challenge for the<br />
child, so the child is enabled to reach other play functions such<br />
as a slide. Another aspect of the law regulates the number<br />
of play activities that are up high and the number that are at<br />
ground level.<br />
“Our comprehensive service<br />
