This stand is large, so can fit all of our swings width-wise and most of our swings height-wise. The only ones that it can't fit are the tallest fixed-length swings like '120cm Blue Yellow Incline Elastic Swing' and 'Heavy Duty Commercial 100cm Blue Rope Nest Swing'. Since it's a large stand, we'd suggest checking that your space is suitable in advance.
The Stand: The galvanised steel (like trampoline steel) means that it's weather resistant and the 260cm by 206cm sized base means that it can fit our largest swings like the 150cm nest swing, or 2 smaller swings at a time.
Suitable Swings: 60-150cm nest swings (with adjustable ropes), wrap swings, pods, hangout, buey ball etc. So most of the swings, as long as they're not exceptionally tall.
Weight Limit: The stand has a suggested weight limit of 150kg. If the swing you're attaching has a lower limit, then you should follow that limit.
Set includes: 1x swing set stand (galvanised), 2x ropes & carabiners.
Optional Accessories:
- Tree Straps - they can be attached to the stand, and are good for spinning, since they wind up better than the included ropes and have swivels attached. So we like to set up the stand with the 2 ropes to the side, plus a strap or two in the middle for spinning or additional swings.
- Spiral Pegs - in case you'll be swinging high enough that the large base starts to move or lift, then spiral pegs can fix the stand to the ground to allow higher swinging. The spiral pegs are better than normal pegs, since they are XL size at 33cm long (going deep into the ground), they have a spiral on the end to keep it securely in the ground, and have a strap at the top to connect to the stand easily and allow adjustment.
Adjusting: The ropes can be moved horizontally along the crossbar, but can not be adjusted vertically (though the optional straps can be adjusted vertically). So generally you'd be adjusting by adjusting the swing that you attach.
Why is this one so popular?
- The stand avoids the need for a suitable tree or installing fittings in your property.
- The stand is a good size to match with most of our popular swings.
- The wide and deep dimensions of the stand give it good stability.
- It can be set up in a play room, verandah, or yard, as long as there is space.
- Having nothing beneath the stand (stand legs etc) allows for easier and safer getting on/off and swinging.
