The primary function of borders is to contain loose-fill surfacing, but they serve many other purposes as well. They provide a visual barrier that marks the distinction between play and non-playing areas. This helps walkers, cyclists and joggers from straying into the path of distracted children and vice versa. They can also separate different play zones on a commercial playground. This helps encourage small children to stay in an area with playground equipment suitable for their age and ability.
Our range of border products includes plastic playground border timbers which are made from recycled plastic. They are available in 8 inch and 12 inch heights. The larger height of these mulch borders makes them a great choice for playgrounds that require deep surfaces like wood mulch. They also have several accessories available that add additional features.
In addition, we also carry rubber playground borders. They are available in 4 inch, 6 inch and 8 inch heights. It’s perfect for making fluid curves and bends for play areas that have an irregular shape. Rubber borders are also commonly used in landscaping because they provide a clean natural edge.
Most of the border products we offer are made of 100% recycled material and are easy to install.
Whichever type of playground border you choose, installation is simple. Just overlap the adjacent border ends and drive the supplied spike through the aligned holes and into the ground. It’s a very straight-forward process.
Playground borders are essential for containing recycled rubber mulch or other loose surfacing. But it can be difficult to know exactly how many borders you need. We're happy to share our experience and knowledge to help you find the ideal edging for your playground or landscaping project.
The basic formula for working out how much playground mulch border you need is as follows:
Quick Note: If the safety zone comes right up to the border, you may need to bump the play area out a bit so the width of the playground border doesn’t encroach the safety zone.
At Actively Play we are committed to providing quality playground solutions that give children and adults the best play experience possible.
