Curts Playground Safety Tips
Lubrication
Check moving parts for adequate lubrication. Tire swing swivels need grease
applied on a yearly basis. Other moving parts have oil-less bearings such as belt
and tot swing hangers, check for excessive wear and replace if required. Refer to the manufacturers
manual for other timely maintenence and of course call us to answer any questions or
for technical support. |
Safety Audit
Has your playground been inspected by a certified playground safety inspector?
If not, a safety audit is important document that provides a baseline for the current safety status, with the desciptions of components that require maintenence or are out of compliance.
Usually an audit will be the best indicator of whether a play structure is worth repairing or needs replacing |
Sunlight and UV Light
Since children spend significant time outdoors, be aware of exposure to sunlight and UV radiation. Use sun block, clothing, and shade canopies for protection. |
Improve Protection
Improve protection for your students by padding the basketball posts on your playground. Post pads should be made of thick, dense foam, covered with a weather-resistant vinyl and fit snugly. |
