10 BENEFITS OF
FREESTANDING PLAYGROUND
EQUIPMENT

Why Choose Freestanding Introduction Icon

INTRODUCTION

Freestanding play equipment gives schools all the benefits of permanent playground structures, without the disruption, delays or installation costs.

Because it isn’t fixed to the ground, it stays flexible, moveable, and easy to use anywhere: playgrounds, fields, MUGAs or even indoors on rainy days.

Replay Direct specialises in freestanding equipment that arrives fully assembled, delivered within 4 weeks, and ready to use the moment it’s placed.

Your Playground Stays Open. No Disruption or Mess Icon

1. Your Playground Stays Open. No Disruption or Mess.

Because freestanding equipment requires no digging, no concrete and no contractors, your school day carries on as normal.

Benefits to you:
‍
• No closure of outdoor areas
• No mess, noise or hazards
• No lost breaktimes or PE sessions
• No need to reroute pupils, parents or staff
‍
Your pupils keep playing and your school keeps running smoothly.

No Waiting Until the Holidays for Installation Icon

Benefits to you:
‍
• No scheduling pressure
• No disruption to wraparound care
• No need to fit work into holiday windows
• You get new equipment when you want it, not when building work can be
accommodated
