Play is an essential part of a child's development, and outdoor play areas give children the space to follow their own ideas and interests, socialise with friends, and keep physically active. In order for this to be effective and allow parents to relax while children play independently, the area needs to be safe. Play equipment that is designed to correct safety standards is a given, but many do not realise the dangers that an unsuitable fence around a playground poses. There are an estimated 40,000 injuries to children on playgrounds each year which result in a hospital visit and potential legal action. Many of these include injuries from fencing that has an unsafe top, fencing being too close to play equipment, scratches or splinters from peeling paint, loose nails or rough timber, trapped limbs between incorrectly spaced pales, and fingers crushed by gates slamming shut. Investing in safe fencing means investing in a child's safe and happy development through play.

Anti-Trap Bow Top is designed to provide permanent protection for playgrounds and play areas. It features our welded tubular pale through rail design, scalloped rail ends and

 Vandal proof connectors to provide a strong structure without visible joints. A key feature in the design is the wider gap between each hoop to prevent children getting their heads, necks or limbs stuck between pales. The design fully conforms to play fence standards BS EN 1176 and is approved by RoSPA

Our playground gates and matching fencing are RoSPA approved and conform to all current play area safety guidelines.

As we've highlighted, gates can cause injury to small children. It is therefore integral to install a safe gate into your safe playground. A self closing mechanism is strongly recommended to maintain that the gate is in the closed position and should not close quicker than 5 seconds.

Arun District Council selected Kompan Ltd, an award-winning playground solutions provider to design and build a new play area. Naturally, the play area needed boundary fencing to ensure children were kept safe and secure while having fun, and parents could keep an eye on their children without interfering.

As part of the regeneration, £300k is being invested on redesigning and rebuilding the popular children’s playground and play area. Plans for the new playground have been PiPA (Plan Inclusive Play Areas) approved, making it the only facility in Kent to offer this standard.

We supplied our Anti-Trap Bow Top fencing for Rhyl Rubgy Club to create a boundary around the playground and provide a safe area to allow children to play.
