How to Purchase Commercial Playground and Water Park Equipment

Buying commercial playground equipment is like unlocking the door to endless fun and adventure for kids—but we get it, with so many choices out there, it can also feel a little overwhelming. It doesn’t matter if you’re building a new playground from scratch or giving an old one a fresh upgrade, knowing how to purchase commercial playground equipment that fits your needs is extremely important. We’re here to make the process as easy as possible, guiding you every step of the way, so you end up with a playground that’s safe, exciting, and ready for years of use. From selecting the right equipment to installation, we’ll help you navigate the journey with ease.

Step 1

Plan For Budget and Funding

Building a playground is an exciting investment in your community, and we know how important it is to stick to a budget while still delivering a quality product. We’ll work with you to stretch your dollars further and ensure you’re getting the best value—while still creating a space you can be proud of. Plus, we can help guide you through funding opportunities like grants, including resources such as grant guides to help you navigate the process and maximize your funding. If you’re a member of the BuyBoard purchasing cooperative, we can offer access to discounted playground equipment, thanks to a competitive procurement process. Let’s work together to explore these opportunities and make your dream playground a reality!
Step 2

Assess Your Needs and Vision

Before you get lost in the excitement of choosing slides, swings, and climbing walls, it’s important to take a step back and think about the space you’re working with. Is it for a school, a park, or a daycare? Do you have limited space, or specific safety guidelines to follow? Getting a clear picture of what your community needs and how kids will be using the playground or water park is key. That’s where we come in! Whether it’s making sure your design is ADA-compliant, fitting the playground perfectly into the available space, or choosing the right features, we’re here to help you map out a plan that turns your vision into a safe, fun reality.
Step 3

Choose Equipment That Fits Your Space

Now that you’ve got a clear idea of what your space needs, it’s time to have some fun picking out the equipment! Will your park feature the timeless charm of swings and slides or will it be something new with interactive play elements? The possibilities are endless! Our team is here to help you choose the ideal pieces that make up your vision. Whether you are building a classic playground or bringing new ideas to your community, you can be assured we have the pieces you're searching for. We’ll walk you through different material options too, like eco-friendly recycled products or durable steel, and explain how each choice impacts the longevity and upkeep of your playground. Together, we’ll create a space that’s built to last and loved by kids for years!
Step 4

Think About Safety and Accessibility

Safety is always at the heart of what we do, and we know it’s just as important to you. When it comes to choosing playground equipment, we make sure it not only meets but exceeds safety standards, so you can have peace of mind knowing your guests are in good hands on our playgrounds. We’ll help you select equipment that’s designed for all abilities, ensuring that every child can join in the fun. From adding inclusive play elements to creating the right fall zones with safe surfacing, we’re committed to making sure your playground is not just fun, but a welcoming and secure space for everyone who visits.
Step 5

Work with Us for Installation and Maintenance

Once you’ve chosen your perfect playground equipment, we’re here to make installation an easy process. Our team handles all the details, from logistics to setup, making sure everything is installed correctly and efficiently. We'll be here for you long after the playground is up and running, ensuring its success for years to come. Our maintenance and repair services help ensure that your playground stays in great shape, so it continues to be a fun, safe space for kids to enjoy for years. After all, a playground’s longevity is just as important as how it’s built!
Step 6

Enjoy the Fun!

Once your playground is complete, it's time to enjoy the smiles and laughter that fill the air as kids explore, play, and make memories in their new space. Whether it's after school, on weekends, or throughout summer break, your playground or splash park will quickly become the community hub for creativity, play, and friendship building.
