Flex VS Pro Playgrounds: Which is right for you?

Navigating commercial playground decisions can be overwhelming - figuring out if you need to have the plagyround inspected and certified, balancing the various team members’ expectations and preconceptions, figuring out who will install it, and raising money to pay for the playground equipment.  

This is why King Swings Commercial is excited to showcase Play Your Way, our new, easier-than-ever commercial playground equipment solutions. 

Play Your Way conveniently divides our commercial playgrounds into two series: Commercial Flex for customizable, budget-friendly designs and Commercial Pro for ASTM-certified commercial playgrounds.

Let’s explore our product lines and find the perfect commercial playground for your public play project. First, let’s examine the similarities.

Play Your Way: Flex and Pro Playgrounds

Expertly Crafted

Both playground series are built by hand in Parkesburg, PA, by local Amish craftsmen. Our premium materials, such as Trex® Decking, all of our slides, the vinyl sleeve, and much more, are made in the USA. Each playground is built when ordered, ensuring the highest quality. 

Delivered and Installed

Our in-house crews deliver and install both Pro and Flex playgrounds. We take care of the scheduling, delivery, and installation. Since these are our crews, you can rest assured that they are trained and constantly communicate with our sales and scheduling teams. 

Safe and Cost-effective

Both Flex and Pro Playgrounds are safe, cost-effective, and built to last. Both use the same materials and receive the same care and attention from all our teams, from sales to the install crews.

Commercial Flex: Built for Flexibility

The beauty and appeal of Commercial Flex are the flexibility of the designs. You are not limited to our website's standard commercial Flex playground designs. With Commercial Flex, you can customize:

• Layout - your playground layout can fit your space, giving you more play possibilities. 
• Color - match your organization's color or contrast it for a bit of pop.
• Components - add slides, bridges, towers, and so much more.

This gives churches, HOAs, schools, daycares, and so many more small businesses the power to pick their play while keeping within their budget. It allows that awkward space to be packed with play because you can design the set to fit your unique site, budget, and needs.

It is important to be clear that Commercial Flex playgrounds are suitable only for sites that do not require the playground to meet ASTM. To read more about ASTM and who needs it, click here.

Commercial Pro: Built to ASTM Codes

If your play project needs a fully compliant commercial playground, our Commercial Pro is the line for you. Each set was specially designed by Certified Plagyround Safety Inspectors and built to ASTM codes. This means it will pass an inspection. Perfect for churches, schools, or other locations that need this extra layer of protection, our Commercial Pro Playgrounds:

• Meet ASTM 1487 and CPSC standards for public playground equipment
• Cost-effective, full-service playground solution for municipalities and institutions.
• Are delivered and installed by our in-house crews
• Can be combined with playground surfacing for a complete turnkey solution
• Offer limited customization to be code compliant

Our Commercial Pro playground equipment takes commercial playgrounds from a confusing, complicated research project for you and simplifies it with our one-stop solution.
