ADA Accessible Playground Equipment

All playground manufacturers must adhere to the standards outlined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). At Playworld, we exceed these standards by providing high-quality, inclusive play environments.

We design our equipment so that children with different mobility, intellectual, and emotional needs can easily use and benefit from it. Whether the inclusive and accessible playground is for a school, church, apartment complex, or park, we create our equipment to have something for everyone. We are always willing to make customizations to ensure we provide exactly what you need.
