Equipment for Accessible Playgrounds
ADA Accessible Playground Equipment
All playground manufacturers must adhere to the standards outlined in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). At Playworld, we aim to exceed these standards to provide a high-quality, inclusive play environment.
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.

Handicap and Wheelchair-Accessible Playground Equipment
We offer a wide range of inclusive playground equipment. Our handicapped and accessible playground equipment has numerous benefits, including:
- Enough space: We make sure all pathways and features are wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs and other medical assistance devices. Kids can easily navigate the playground and have enough room to move freely. We understand the importance of kids having enough space to play, and we design our playgrounds to facilitate the flow of movement.
- Something for everyone: Our acessible play equipment is designed so that children at any development level and with any capabilities can enjoy the equipment together. We design everything with developmentally appropriate mental and physical challenges to help advance motor skills, develop balance and coordination and build muscle tone.
- Opportunities for social growth: Our play equipment is designed to help develop social and emotional skills. We include quiet spaces where kids can go when they need a break, which can help lessen any anxiety. Our playgrounds create an atmosphere of cooperation and camaraderie, which helps minimize stress and maximize a child's confidence.
- Unique features: At Playworld, we are constantly innovating to create unique and meaningful play features. Our electronic playground equipment is one-of-a-kind, combining a video game-like experience with exercise in the outdoors that kids love. We also have fitness equipment that can accommodate all ages and abilities.
- Sturdy materials: We use only the highest quality materials to create our play equipment, and we make all our surfaces highly durable for easy navigation for wheelchairs. We use shatterproof plastics and sturdy steel platforms among other safe materials. We also have several safety certifications. You can rest assured that your children are using safe play equipment.
From the right amount of space to the right features and materials, we pay close attention to the details and ensure our playgrounds are accessible for children of all ages and abilities.
