Product Features
The Utah Climbing Frame is from our Selwood Admiral Series of frames. Featuring a wooden roof, a swingbeam including 2 belt swings and a trapeze bar. The fully wooden shiplap roof, slide and slatted combination rockwall ladder are the other main features. Manufactured from cedar wood, the Utah comes in a beautiful redwood colour due to our factory applied water based stain.
The Utah features a stylish premium wooden roof which covers the play deck that’s enclosed by the slatted wall rails. The Selwood Range of Climbing Frames feature a high number of wall rails to prevent arms from being put through the bars and create a fantastic cabin feel. This is enhanced by the very popular window to the front of the fort which is a hit with many children who love standing in their high tower waving down to mum and dad in the garden below. The play deck is 1.2m from the ground so is high enough to give a challenging climb up and fun slide down, but not too high to scare younger children.
The deck measures 118.7cm wide from left to right, by 89.53cm deep from front to back. This equates to over 1m/sq of raised play area, below which is the sand play area. With the addition of a membrane you can fill the area with sand and use it as a sandpit. The ground beams which act as the surround for this area are 12cm high. Should you wish it could alternatively be used as a ball pit, or you could add our optional stand alone picnic table accessory.
The slide on the Selwood Climbing Frame is high railed, especially at the top, to ensure children can get onto the slide easily and safely and that they are retained as they enjoy the ride. The slide features a wave in the middle to give some additional excitement, and the bottom of the slide flattens to enable a slower exit to ensure children can place their feet down safely. The combination rockwall ladder contains 7 slats to enable younger children to climb the ladder, and 5 high quality climbing rocks to provide older children a more challenging assent up to the deck. Once on the deck they can come back down the slide, play on the large deck area or draw on the ABC vinyl wipe clean chalk wall.
This playset is designed for children aged between 3 and 10 years of age. The set is designed and tested (EN-71 & ASTM) to meet requirements for private residential use – this set is not suitable for commercial use.
Our Climbing Frames are all free standing and cementing them into the ground is unnecessary, but to provide added stability, the Utah comes with a set of ground stakes, which fix it to the ground.
Please note: the fixings and instruction manual for the Selwood fort and roof will all come in the Admiral roof box.
The Utah 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!
Rockwall Ladder
This slatted rock wall ladder offers the best of both worlds for little climbers. For those who are feeling a little more adventurous, the moulded plastic climbing rocks are a natural choice for a daring climb. For those with a little less confidence, then the spaces between the ladder slats will provide an easier ascent to the top! The spaces between the slats are also easy to climb down - ideal if the queue for the slide is too long! Our rockwall ladders are a combination to ensure that all ages of children can enjoy them and maximise their use from the playset.
1.2m (4ft) High Deck
The 1.22m (4ft) 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?
We suggest that the taller your children are the higher your deck should be, and it is also important to remember that the higher the deck the more use your children will get out of the climbing frame as they get older.
The 4ft deck is our most popular deck height as it is a fantastic comprimise between being a sensible height for smaller or younger children, and still high enough to keep older children amused.
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.
Chalk Wall
Drawing is the perfect way to encourage a child's creativity, and what better way than have a vinyl chalk wall on your playset from Climbing Frames UK! And with such a wonderful view as that from the top of the playhouse, who wouldn't want to draw it? The vinyl chalk wall is easy to wipe clean, so your little Monets and Rembrandts can keep their creative juices flowing!
Small Garden
A small garden doesn’t at all mean a climbing frame is an impossibility. To make your buying experience that much simpler we have suggested which climbing frames best suit which sized gardens. We completely understand that not everyone has acres and acres of land to fill with outdoor play equipment. It was important to us that we considered those with smaller gardens and because of that we have a range of climbing frames which are ideal for smaller spaces. They are more compact in size yet still have plenty of features to keep the little monsters fully entertained.
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.
