Description
Our standard Traverse Wall is designed for both durability and interactive fun. Constructed from high-quality timber treated to UC4 standards, this wall stands resilient against all weather conditions, ensuring a long-lasting addition to any playground, park, or educational environment.
We use grippy resin climbing holds, offering not just a splash of colour but also a secure grip for climbers of all ages. These holds are designed to challenge and engage, promoting physical development, coordination, and confidence.
Our walls also offer a unique feature that allows you to make it your own. We offer personalised engraving services, allowing you to inscribe messages, school / park names, or motivational quotes directly onto the wood.
Whether you're looking to enhance a school playground, create an engaging feature in a public park, or add a dynamic exercise option to a community centre, our Timber Traverse Wall is the perfect solution.
Safety Surfacing
As the top of the foot holds are installed below 600mm from the ground, there is no mandatory requirement for a safety surface.
However, we are able to supply the following additional safety surfaces if required.
Rubber matting (for concrete & tarmac surfaces)
Grass mats (for fields / soil areas)
Wet pour & Rubber mulch (for all areas)
More Information
What is a traverse climbing wall?
A traverse wall for school playgrounds is a type of climbing wall designed for lateral climbing. It promotes physical activity, helps improve coordination and strength, and encourages problem-solving skills. Unlike traditional climbing walls where children go upwards, traverse walls allow children to travel left / right and so have a lower height. This helps in reducing the risk of falls and making them safer for children. They're great for enhancing playgrounds, offering a fun and challenging activity that supports children's development in a safe environment.
How do you use a traverse wall?
The routes on a traverse wall are pre-defined for the children to follow as they move across the wall. Typically some routes are harder than others with coloured climbing holds indicating the various paths. This isn't always the case and some walls simply have a collection of different coloured holds for children to assess and plan their route through strategic thinking and forward planning.
How do you install a traverse wall?
The HDPE traverse walls should be secured using the appropriate mechanical fixings for the wall type. Typically this would be expansion bolts or large screws depending on the wall. Never use chemical fixings (glues / adhesives) as these will not possess the required strength to secure the panel to the wall.
The free standing timber based walls are typically installed by our trained teams and concreted into the ground or fixed to walls using the appropriate mechanical fixings.
