Playtowers
Play towers are a fantastic addition to any garden. These impressive climbing frames combine the fun play elements of standard play equipment with the extra privacy and unique design of play towers. They are just like wooden playhouses, but on stilts! This makes the play tower an adventurous option for every young explorer. Take a look and find the perfect playhouse for your family today.
A play tower for the small garden
Do you have limited outdoor space? No worries, that doesn't mean you have to compromise on fun. For smaller gardens, it is worth looking at play towers without swings, as they take up less space. You can also choose a play tower with a fireman's pole instead of a slide. This reduces the total required safe play area, making play towers with a fireman's pole a compact choice. A fireman's pole is an ideal choice for a smaller space while still offering the physical challenge and thrill of a slide, albeit in a different format.
A play tower with slide
A play tower with slide is a classic choice for outdoor play. The combination of the slide with the play tower is popular because it offers the excitement of a slide combined with the endless play possibilities of the climbing frame.

Tips for maintaining your play tower
Jungle Gym play towers are designed to withstand various weather conditions and can remain outside all year round. However, a little maintenance helps keep them safe and in good condition. Here is what you should keep in mind:
- Regularly remove debris: Leaves on the play platform or the slide can cause slippery surfaces.
- Secure the roof tarp during strong winds: It is recommended to take the roof tarp inside during storms. Looking for a replacement tarp? Good news, we also sell the tarps separately.
- Protect the sandbox: It is a good idea to cover the sandbox with a sandbox cover net, especially in winter. A cover net keeps dirt out while allowing for ventilation.
- Inspect the climbing frame regularly: After long breaks (such as winter or a holiday), check the bolts, slide, and other elements to ensure everything is safe and correctly in place. This way, you can sit back, relax, and let your little ones play outside without a care.

Assembling your climbing frame is simple and straightforward with Jungle Gym's instructions, but some preparation and tools are needed. Every Jungle Gym climbing frame comes with an assembly manual, the required screws and drill bits, plus screw-in ground anchors. From your own toolbox you will need a few basic tools like an electric drill, tape measure and screwdriver. Before you get started with the assembly of your wooden climbing frame, make sure that you have all the neccessary tools, an appropriate installation surface, a helping hand, and enough time to enjoy the assembly without rushing. Do you feel like assembling your climbing frame is not your thing? No problem! In that case, you can make use of our assembly service and leave it up to a professional.
Jungle Gym wooden climbing frames are made of high-quality timber, which is an eco-friendly, strong and durable material that blends seamlessly into your garden. Plastic climbing frames, on the other hand, are made of plastic that doesn't age well, isn't very eco-friendly and often stands out in natural surroundings. If you want a climbing frame that lasts for years and fits into your outdoor space, we recommend choosing a wooden climbing frame for you and your family.
It is important to assemble your wooden climbing frame on the correct type of ground surface. Jungle Gym recommends installing your climbing frame on an unpaved, steady surface such as grass or compact sand. Avoid placing it on hard surfaces like asphalt, or any similar materials, including carpet or artificial grass laid over hard surfaces.
However, if the only option for you is a hard surface, not to worry! This can be transformed into a suitable ground surface by installing impact attenuation surfacing such as rubber tiling. Jungle Gym does not offer this in our collection but they can be found in most hardware stores. For further information, have a read through theguideon recommended ground surfaces for climbing frames.
To keep your wooden climbing frame safe and looking its best, regular maintentance is key. Make sure to remove leaves, branches and dirt from the swings, play platform or other corners where debris can accumulate. If needed, you can also gently wash the playset with a pressure washer on a low setting to remove built-up grime. It's also important to reapply water-based stains or wood preservatives every few years, to protect the wood in your climbing frame since treatments and stains naturally fade over time. This will help keep the timber clean, but also protect your climbing frame from the elements like rain, snow and sun. With the right maintentance, your climbing frame will stay in great condition throughout the seasons, for years to come!
