Description
KALAHARI is the largest structure in the Desert range and closes it: 24.5 by 16.5 m in plan, 6.9 m high, with a multi-level rope network linking platforms and bridges. A structure at this scale is not bought to fill a playground — it is bought to create a destination, the kind of installation that appears in a tourist office listing and that families drive across a region to visit.
What a destination structure changes
- Dwell time: children stay on a structure of this complexity for far longer than on a conventional multi-play unit, which changes the economics of an attached cafe, campsite or retail scheme.
- Catchment: a single landmark structure draws visitors from beyond the immediate neighbourhood, which is the argument that usually secures the funding.
- Capacity: a very large group can use it simultaneously, so it copes with school holidays and coach parties rather than being overwhelmed by them.
- Longevity: stainless steel posts and steel-cored polyamide rope are specified for decades of open-access use, not for a five-year replacement cycle.
Materials and construction
Reinforced stainless steel structural posts carry a network of 18 mm polyamide rope with a braided galvanised steel core, cut-resistant and UV-stable, assembled with aluminium and stainless steel connectors. Decorative elements are impact and weather resistant HPL panel. Foundations are high-strength concrete at 1.0 m depth. Heavy lifting equipment is required for installation, and access for it must be confirmed at design stage.
Site requirements
The minimum impact area is 28.0 by 19.9 m — around 557 m2 — surfaced to suit a free height of fall of 2.8 m. That surface is a substantial project in its own right and should be tendered alongside the equipment rather than after it. The rest of the range is shown under Diamond Collection play structures.

Frequently asked questions
What lead time should we allow for a project of this size?
Manufacture, delivery, groundworks and installation all have to be sequenced, and the surfacing contractor has to be programmed around them. We issue a project programme with the quotation; it is normally measured in months rather than weeks, so it belongs in the funding timetable from the start.
Can it be installed on an existing playground?
Only if 28.0 by 19.9 m can be cleared and the ground can take the foundations. In practice a KALAHARI project usually involves reorganising the whole play area, which is worth planning as a single scheme rather than as an equipment purchase.
How is it maintained over its life?
Routine visual checks, quarterly functional inspections and an annual main inspection with access equipment for the high-level connections. Ropes, connectors and panels are replaceable individually; the stainless posts and foundations are designed to outlast several rope renewals.
If you are planning a landmark play area for a town, a resort or a large tourism site, send us your plan, your access constraints and your funding timetable, and we will return a full costed proposal within 24 business hours.
