Q: Do I need to anchor my playset?

• <div><p>Yes! It&rsquo;s always a good idea to anchor your playset. Even though they&rsquo;re heavy, it doesn&rsquo;t take much wind to blow one over. Anchoring everything to the ground makes it a lot safer for your kiddos.</p></div>

Q: Should I build my own swing set?

• <div><p>It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren&rsquo;t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won&rsquo;t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.</p></div>

Q: Is it more affordable to build a playground or buy one?

• <div><p>Whether building a playground or installing a pre-made one is more affordable depends on the materials of each. In most cases, it&rsquo;s more affordable to build a wooden playground than it is to buy one and have it professionally installed, but it might be less expensive to invest in a pre-made plastic playground, even if you pay a professional to install it. Wooden playgrounds tend to last longer, but as children age, they will become less valuable. Overall, it may be most affordable to have a pro install a pre-made plastic playground.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to build or buy a swing set?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, building a swing set is cheaper than buying a prefabricated one, but this assumes you have all the tools and knowledge to complete the project. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/swing-set-cost.htm">average cost to build a swing set</a> is <b>$514</b>, but you should also factor in the time and effort it will require&mdash;if you don&rsquo;t want to give up your weekend, it&rsquo;s worth considering buying instead of building.</p></div>

Q: What age are backyard playgrounds for?

• <div><p>Children can become interested in playset activities as young as two years old, and many start to lose interest between ages nine and 12. Backyard playsets can grow and adapt as the children age and playtime interests change.</p></div>
