Katherine Playground

3 Inch Heavy Duty Posts / Primary

$40,485.04

Katherine from SportsPlay is a large commercial playground structure designed to give children ages 5–12 an exciting environment for active movement, exploration, physical challenge, and social play. With 13 total play events, this expansive structure provides numerous opportunities for children to move through elevated areas, challenge their developing abilities, and create their own playground adventures.

The multi-activity configuration encourages children to stay on the move as they navigate from one experience to another. Rather than following a single path, children can make choices about where to go next, supporting motor planning, spatial awareness, decision-making, and independent exploration.

Climbing and elevated movement provide valuable opportunities for children to develop gross motor skills. Reaching, stepping, balancing, gripping, and coordinating full-body movements can help strengthen the upper and lower body while supporting agility, balance, coordination, and physical confidence.

The structure also creates natural opportunities for social interaction. Children can navigate the playground alongside friends, take turns, create games, and incorporate imaginative scenarios into their play. This combination of physical and social activity makes Katherine particularly well suited for busy school and community playground environments.

At 35' x 26' installed, Katherine is a substantial playground centerpiece. The structure requires a 47' x 38' use zone and weighs approximately 4,807 pounds, making careful site planning, surfacing selection, and professional installation important considerations for the overall project.

Footer Options (Varies by Product)

In-Ground Mounting

This is the most common installation method for playground and shade structures. It involves digging holes and setting the posts directly into concrete that is poured during installation.

Surface Mount (Anchor Bolt)

With this method, posts are secured to an existing solid surface—typically concrete—using specialized base plates and anchor bolt hardware provided with the product.

Ground Spike

This is the simplest mounting option, using a sledgehammer to drive stakes through a footer plate to secure the posts in the desired location. Ground spikes are not recommended for sandy or loamy soil conditions and are only available for select product sets.

FAQs

What are the payment requirements for an order?

Full payment is typically required upfront due to the custom nature of many products. Exceptions can be made for governmental entities through approved purchase orders. All payments must be received prior to the start of installation.

Are installation services available?

Installation services are available for commercial playground projects. A qualified and insured professional can be arranged to handle the setup, and quotes are provided upon request. The goal is to ensure a smooth, safe, and efficient installation process from start to finish.

Is expedited shipping an option for my order?

Expedited shipping is not currently available. Due to the size and nature of playground LTL shipments, most freight carriers are unable to guarantee faster delivery. Unless otherwise noted, all products ship according to the estimated lead times listed on each product page.

How is the estimated lead time calculated?

Estimated lead time refers to the amount of time it typically takes for a product to be prepared and shipped after an order is placed. For many commercial playground items, manufacturing begins only once the order is received. For example, if the lead time is listed as 8 to 10 weeks, that means it will take approximately8 to 10 weeks for the product to be manufactured, packaged, and shipped from the warehouse.
