At Park Supplies & Playgrounds, we believe that inclusive playground equipment is crucial for creating a universally accessible playground where individuals of all ages and abilities can engage, learn, and thrive collectively. Our inclusive playground equipment is thoughtfully designed to meet the varied needs of the community, ensuring everyone can participate and play together in a welcoming environment.
Â
As part of our inclusive playground equipment options, our transferable playground equipment is designed for seamless wheelchair access. Our user-friendly transferable playground equipment items feature smooth surfaces, avoiding ropes and chaings, and are crafted at the perfect height with a child’s wheelchair, ensuring easy transitions. Thoughtfully integrated into our designs, adequate transfer space and targeted supports like handrails, grips, seating and harnesses provide children with limited mobility the joy of play without impeding other users.Â

Wheelchair and Turning Circle Templates
Creating accessible playgrounds means designing spaces where no child feels isolated and social interactions flourish naturally. It’s essential to consider two kinds of space: one for active use of a wheelchair and another for safe parking when the child engages directly with the playground equipment.
Adequate maneuvering space is crucial for those in wheelchairs, ensuring ease of movement and access to every corner of the playground. This includes thoughtfully planned pathways and access points that allow for a seamless experience for both wheelchair users and other children playing.
Designated spaces for parking wheelchairs are vital for smooth transitions from chair to play. These spaces are carefully positioned to facilitate effortless assistance by caregivers and ensure the wheelchairs do not obstruct play areas or pose safety risks.
