The Zip-Wires – the perfect playground equipment

Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

Wickey Zip WiresMany kids only know a Zip-Wires on an adventure playground. Wouldn’t it be something special to have such a piece of playground equipment in your own garden?

It’s easier than you think! In our online shop we offer three different Zip-Wires models. For the small garden we offer the Spider Glider because the steel cable, on which the handle is attached, measures only 15 m.

The ride with the Spider Web Zip-Wires takes a little bit longer. Here the steel cable has a length of 30 m. This Zip-Wires is available in red and green. For the Zip-Wire Spider Web we also offer a swing plate as swing seat. The proper connection for the swing plate and Zip-Wires is included. However, if the Zip-Wires should wear out, you can buy the spare parts kit. It includes two rollers with ball bearings and two cable guides.

To be especially sure your children are safe, you can use the Zip-Wire called Heavy for public use. The 25 m catenary wire has a diameter of 10 mm. The Zip-Wire is TÜV-certified and has the TÜV certificate according to EN 1176. Also for the Zip-Wire Heavy you can buy a swing plate as a seat in our online shop.

With the Zip-Line you will soon hear the cries of happy children coming out of your garden.

Wickey  Climbing FramesAll children dream of a playground in the garden where they have a climbing frame, swing and sandbox all to themselves. No more queueing at the slide or an annoying wait at the swing until the swing is finally free …

You can make your children’s dreams come true with a climbing frame, a swing or other articles of playground equipment from our range. Check for yourself how much space you have available in the garden and what budget you want to spend on the climbing frame or swing.

They can climb, slide and play in the sand. Our climbing frame Sunshine Tower is also affordable and offers, in addition to the climbing ladder, a slide and sandbox and also a swing. You can start easily with a small climbing frame and then expand with our playground equipment each year. Build on an extra swing, climbing frame, a playtower or a wobbly bridge.

Naturally, we also have available large climbing frames, for example the Castle Camelot and climbing frame Santa Maria.
No matter what climbing frame model you choose – your kids will spend hours with their fun and adventurous new playground equipment in the garden!

The swing with a double swing seat

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

A double swing seat solves many problems in one fell swoop. Finally, two children can swing at once! When mounting a double swing seat you must pay attention to some details. Here we present some of our double swings:

Double swing seat Metal Social
This swing seat for two is suitable for a swing frame with a height of 2.50 m – 2.70 m. The bar of the swing must be round and should have a diameter of 10 cm. What makes this swing made of metal so special is that your children are sitting face to face.

Gondola swing with ropes
The gondola swing with rope is suitable for a swing frame with a height between 2.15 m to 2.55 m. A swing hook is not included, but we also offer a convenient hook in our online shop. The gondola swing is the classic swing model of the double swing seat sets.

Double swing seat made of plastic
The plastic swing seat for two is not only durable, but is also suitable for children who like to argue now and then. Namely, the children sit back to back. This double swing is suitable for a swing frame with a height of 2.50 m to 2.65 m. Again, you should buy the suitable swing hooks with it.

When buying a double swing seat, it is always important to look at the appropriate height of the swing and the correct positioning of the swing beam.
