LETO XL Rope Crossing with Arches

In brief — LETO XL Rope Crossing with Arches: dimensions 460 × 30 × 300 cm, free fall height 2,85 m, age range 5 to 14 years, safety area 5,3 × 9,6 m, standards EN 1176-1:2017, certification certificate of conformity from an independent certification body, price on quotation.

LETO XL carries six half-circle arches on a main rope spanning 4.24 m, with the rope height adjustable between 1.4 m and 2.85 m. The longer traverse and the closer succession of arches turn a short crossing into a sustained sequence.

Six arches instead of four

Adding two arches over an extra 1.24 m of span shortens the gap between hand supports. That sounds like it should make the crossing easier, and for a small child it does; for an older one it does the opposite, because the traverse now lasts long enough for grip fatigue to matter. The module therefore serves a wider age band than the standard version from a single installation.

• Main horizontal rope, height adjustable from 1.4 m to 2.85 m
• Six half-circle curved ropes, radius approximately 0.3 m
• Stainless steel articulated connections
• Aluminium and plastic connectors

Technical specification

Where the XL span pays off

On a school site with a single break period and two hundred pupils, the limiting factor is how many children can be on the equipment at once. A longer traverse with more supports absorbs more users per minute for an extra 1.3 m of surfaced length, which is the cheapest capacity available in the collection.

Installation and surfacing

Reinforced concrete footings at 1.0 m depth, heavy plant access required, and an impact attenuating surface to EN 1176-1 across the full 5.3 x 9.6 m safety area, sized against the 2.85 m free height of fall.

Frequently asked questions

Should the rope be set low or high?

It depends on the user group. Primary schools generally set it towards the lower end of the range; parks serving mixed ages set it higher. We discuss the setting before installation.

Can two children cross at the same time?

The longer span makes this physically possible, but the ropes interact when loaded at two points. Supervised settings normally run one child at a time.

Are the arches replaceable individually?

Yes. Each curved rope is a separate assembly connected through stainless steel articulated fittings and can be changed without dismantling the main rope.
