The Arlington comes with our 2012 supersized, upgraded, engineered uprights (legs), giving the climbing frame improved stability, strength and a stunning aesthetic. These engineered cedar uprights are now 8cm x 8cm and have been developed to give much less cracking, checking and twisting than in standard pine or spruce larger dimensional lumber. Our new uprights are soft to the touch, strong and free from splinters or deep cracks that could harm little hands. The Selwood Products brand is synonymous with safety, fun and family. The Arlington Climbing Frame is part of the Selwood Products Infinity Series.
The Arlington is a great looking climbing frame packed full of exciting features including the multi-functional monkey bar/swing beam combo. The upper play deck has beautiful detailing which makes this set something truly special. There is a fully functional flower box, where green-fingered little ones can plant flowers and watch them grow as well as a charming dormer window in the wooden roof.
The spacious 150cm high play deck measures 220cm by 110cm in area and is perfect for those with bigger families who may have several children wanting to play on the deck at one time. It can be easily reached either by the ladder at the rear of the frame or the solid rock wall at the front. The solid rock wall includes multi-coloured professional style plastic rocks, as well as a slight wave for extra excitement. Once up the rockwall the kids can take in the view from their very own balcony. Below the balcony is a sand play area which can be easily transformed with the addition of a ground sheet and some sand. This area is perfect for younger members of the family.
The Arlington has a straight wavy slide which guarantees a super speedy ride. Once they’ve made it safely down the slide, thanks to its high railed sides and flattened bottom, the kids can have a rest on the 2 café style stools attached to the lower playhouse. The lower playhouse features a big window to the front which acts as a serving hatch for those wanting to play restaurants or shops. This frame features our brand new monkey bar / swing combo beam complete with 2 belt swings and a trapeze bar. The trapeze bar is always a huge hit with children who love showing off their acrobatic skills. Without compromising on safety, the combo beam delivers a wide range of features in a minimal amount of space.
The Arlington playset is manufactured from cedar wood and pre-stained with an attractive redwood stain. The wood is also pre-cut and pre-drilled which helps make home-build as easy as possible. We also supply an illustrated owner’s manual showing you exactly how to build the set. All you’ll need is basic DIY tools. Our Climbing Frames are all free standing and cementing them into the ground is unnecessary, but to provide added stability, the Arlington comes with a set of ground stakes, which fix it to the ground.
This climbing frame is designed for children aged between 3 and 10 years of age and is tested (EN-71 & ASTM) to meet requirements for private residential use – this set is not suitable for commercial use.
The Arlington includes the following product features:
Straight Slide
Straight slide with an added wave for a thrilling descent! Our sides have extra high rails at the top of slide to help children get onto the slide and help prevent any falls. The bottom of the slide is flatter, to help children end with their feet (and not their bottoms!) on the ground. No more bumps and bruises and no more grass stains! The slides are made of durable, green plastic - a perfect colour choice during the summer as it won't attract the bugs! We have also reinforced the rear of our slides to make them extra strong, and to easily stand up to children running the wrong way up them!
Monkey Bars
Monkey Bars are great fun as kids love to climb, hang and swing like monkey's, you can buy wooden money bar climbing frames with play equipment or on their own. Monkey bars are a great addition to a climbing frame and our wooden monkey bar set can be added to most of our climbing frame models.
Monkey bars offer the perfect excuse for kids to monkey around while building their core strength and improving their motor skills. Using monkey bars will help children improve their upper body strength, which will help with their posture and physical well being.
Our monkey bar climbers come in two varieties, the stand alone monkey bar, or the combination monkey bar and swings. Both have a ladder at the end, and easy grip rungs long the horizontal monkey climber. The monkey bar's are normally about 1.8m (6ft) from the ground.
Our monkey bars are manufactured from the same quality cedar wood as our climbing frames so they will come with a matching stain and wood finish. You can also be confident that our monkey bars will last, as cedar is resistant to rot, mold and insect infestation. They are specifically designed to be soft to touch so they are gentle on young hands so your children will spend more time enjoying their playset with no worries about splinters.
Our combination monkey bar climbers also offer the opportunity to have swings, or swing accessories attached to the beam too. This offers the opportunity to maximize space in your garden, so if you have a smaller garden you can still have both a swings and a monkey bar so you children get maximum enjoyment from their playset. Safety Notice: We advise Swings & Swing Accessories should be removed from a combination monkey bar swing before using it as a monkey bar.
Ladder
Ladders provide a safe and easy entry into a climbing frame utilising easy grip rungs or flat steps to allow children to safely get up onto the playset deck to access the additional features such as cabin windows, chalk wall, or slide entrance. Step ladders also enable safe exit from a treehouse fort.
1.5m (5ft) High Deck
The 1.52m (5ft) play deck height refers to the distance from the ground to the floor of the deck. Therefore the higher the deck height the further from the ground the deck is, the longer the rockwall to get up, and the slide to ride down.
Which deck height is most suitable for my children?
The higher the height of the deck the more challenging and adventurous the climbing frame becomes. The climb up to the deck is higher and the slide down is longer. The higher deck means that as your children grow they will still be able to get enjoyment from their frame even as they get much older.
One great benefit of purchasing a climbing frame with a 1.5m (5ft) deck height is that the deck size also increases as the deck gets higher. This means the playsets are able to cater to several siblings, and their friends without any problem at all, and as the older ones can still play on it they are kept busy and active too.
Wooden Roof
Climbing frames with fully wooden roofs look amazing in your garden and provide your with a strong sturdy playset that will protect them from sunshine or rain.
Our playsets come with either a vinyl tarp roof, or a fully wooden roof.
Sandpit Area
Climbing Frames UK have a huge range of playsets and wooden climbing frames with a sand pit area below the fort deck. Simply add a weed suppressant membrane and some bags of play sand and you'll have a fantastic sandbox for your children to play in.
Medium Garden
Medium gardens make a great home for a whole host of our fabulous climbing frames. However, we do advise that you carefully consider the size of the garden you plan to put the climbing frame in before making your final decision. We have a fantastic range of climbing frames that are ideal for those with medium sized gardens. Climbing Frames UK truly believe you don’t need a huge outdoor space to get a playset full of exciting features.
Large Gardens
Those lucky things with large gardens will be able to make the most of our super-duper larger climbing frames. Although all our playsets have a wonderful range of play features, it makes sense that the bigger playsets can accommodate more features such as the monkey bars. Large gardens are also able to make the most of our wide variety of accessories and additional extras like picnic tables, wooden playhouses or sand tables.
Solid Rockwall
The solid rock wall features multi-coloured climbing rocks and wavy detailing at the edges. This climbing rock wall is great for older children who are up for a challenge! Not only it is fun to use but also has physical benefits such as improving children’s motor skills, hand-eye coordination and upper and lower body strength.

Swings have been around forever and everyone remembers enjoying swings from their childhood, whether it be playing at the park, or a tyre or rope in the tree at home, we all seem to have fond memories. Playing with siblings and friends, swinging across ditches or spinning round-and-round.
When sat on, our flexible belt swing seats grip the hips and provide a comfortable and supportive seat for your child as they swing. They are also designed to clip on and clip off should you wish to swap them with either a baby bucket or a trapeze.
