PLAYGROUND REPAIRS & RETROFITTING
Retrofitting your Playground is one method in which you can bring your existing structure up to safety standards while reducing the impact on the environment.
Why Consider a Retrofit?
Safety – Older Playgrounds were designed and manufactured when safety codes and standards were not routinely enforced, or in some cases even created yet. Retrofitting an existing Playground will ensure your system is up to current CSA Standards and protect you, children and the community.
Cost – Retrofitting a Playground is a reasonable alternative to a new Playground and typically costs a fraction of a new system.
Accessibility – Retrofitting your playground to include accessible components such as ramps and play spaces designed for wheelchairs etc., will aid in ensuring your structure is up to code.
PARCS stocks common repair components for your playground equipment, which includes:
- Swing seats
- Swing chains and hardware
- Standard slides and slide components
