Foldaway 3-gate climbing frame (steel and timber)

Our 3-gate Foldaway climbing frames are an industry standard for primary physical education.

The frames provide an exciting, challenging climbing frame with many variations and in conjunction with a wall fixed ladder and portable PE equipment provide a huge range of layouts of the equipment to present different challenges for children every time.

The 3-gate frames are available in bright coloured steel versions or lacquered timber.

No overhead tensioning cables are necessary as the units are stabilised using the supplied stabilising ladders.

The frames require us to drill into your floor so if you are planning a new installation and you are having underfloor heating, it is important to make provision for the frame before the heating is installed. You can find details of the provision necessary in the floor in our set of layout drawings here for the steel version and here for the timber version.
