HOPE – compact rope play tower with climbing net

In brief — HOPE – compact rope play tower with climbing net: dimensions 380 × 260 × 330 cm, material stainless steel, free fall height 2,1 m, age range 3 to 14 years, safety area 6,7 x 5,4 m, standards EN 1176, certification certificate of conformity from an independent certification body, price on quotation.

HOPE is the smallest structure in this rope range: a single tower 3.8 x 2.6 m in plan, with climbing nets tensioned on several faces and one raised platform. It is the model to look at when the plot, the budget or the planning context will not carry a large installation but the site still needs real climbing rather than a spring rider.

What a small footprint buys you

A residential courtyard, a village green, a small hotel garden or an infill space beside a school building rarely has room for a full safety area around a large frame. HOPE keeps the structure compact while retaining the qualities that matter: nets on several faces so children choose their own route, a platform to reach, and a 2.1 m free height of fall that is genuinely challenging for a 6-year-old without pushing the surfacing specification into the most expensive band.

Materials

Stainless steel posts, 18 mm polyamide rope with a braided galvanised steel core, cut-resistant and UV-stabilised, assembled with aluminium and stainless steel connectors. HPL decorative panels, resistant to weather and impact. High-strength concrete foundations at 0.6 m depth. The material specification is identical to the largest structures in the range — a small structure here does not mean a lighter build.

Surfacing and siting

The free height of fall is 2.1 m, so the impact area requires an impact-attenuating surface certified to EN 1177 for a critical fall height of at least 2.1 m. The equipment itself is certified to EN 1176 by an independent certification body. The declared safety area for HOPE is issued with the siting drawing (EN 1176-1), because on the small plots where this model is used the free space envelope is almost always shaped by a wall, a fence or a planting bed.

Frequently asked questions

How close to a wall or fence can HOPE be installed?

Not as close as the 3.8 x 2.6 m footprint suggests. The free space required around the structure is set by EN 1176-1 and by the fall height, and rigid boundaries must sit outside it. This is exactly why we issue the safety area with a drawing for your plot rather than as a catalogue figure.

Is a single tower enough for a small campsite?

For a site with a handful of families at a time, yes. For a campsite with a hundred pitches, pair HOPE with a second item so that peak arrivals are not queuing at one platform.

Does the small size reduce the inspection requirement?

No. Routine, operational and annual inspection duties apply to any public play equipment regardless of size, and the impact-attenuating surface must be inspected alongside it.

Send us the plot dimensions and the boundaries that constrain it, and we will return a costed proposal with a scaled siting drawing for HOPE within 24 business hours.
