Purchasing Wooden Swing Sets
Now that you have decided to purchase one of the many fine wooden swing sets on the
market for your family and build it yourself, you've come to the realization that there are many different options, styles, and models available. With so many options on wood playsets you will need to sort through all of the components and decide which ones are important to purchase for your family. Building a backyard wooden swing set can be an overwhelming task. First thing you will need to decide upon is the type of material it will be constructed with. For example, you can choose from pine lumber, which is very strong, redwood, cedar or plastic wrapped boards, also known as vinyl clad, which is maintenance free lumber.
Plastic wrapped boards are something you should consider. WoodguardTM, who manufactures wood that is maintenance free and known as the world's first "Low-Maintenance" wood product, is a great option. If you are planning to build wood playsets for outdoor use, WoodguardTM is simply the best and backed with a warranty against yellowing, chipping, cracking, rotting, and peeling! These types of wood playsets are also referred to as plastic coated, with no possibility of splinters or rough boards to scratch or scrape your children. Two top-notch brands that offer this type of boards are Kidwise Monkey Playsystems and Swing Kingdom Playsets. Both of these manufacturers design great looking wooden swing sets that would be the envy of the neighborhood.
Two other options in terms of construction of wood playsets are pine and redwood. Pine is usually about 60% stronger than redwood lumber and doesnt require steel reinforcements. Redwood wooden swing sets most often have a bulkier look because it has to be in order to support the weight of children or adults who are playing on this type of set. Most likely you will need to stain and seal your redwood swing set every year to stop it form turning black over the years. However, with proper care and maintenance, both of these options will look fantastic standing behind your house and have that classic, rustic feel of wooden swing sets.
Board selection is one of the most important features to consider and to weigh heavily when picking out your unit because it will determine how strong and safe it will be. Since price will play a role in your decision making process, you will need to complete a budget and then figure out what play options are a must for your family. For example, swings and a slide will most likely be a must, while a tire swing could be added on at a later date. Purchasing wooden swing sets that can be added onto later is one way to save dollars now and allow the wood playsets to grow with your child in order to keep them entertained for many years and get the most use and value out of your unit. Features can be added on for Birthdays or Christmas and over time you will end up with a great custom unit that fits your childs age perfectly.
