Description
Pavo is built on a different principle from the tower structures in the range. Thirty-four masts carry thirty-four net modules of varying shape and size across an 18.5 x 16.2 m plot, and the whole thing stands only 3.8 m high. The result is a wide, low field of climbable net rather than a vertical object — a landscape feature that a very large number of children can occupy at the same time.
Capacity without height
Thirty-four separate net modules means there is no single bottleneck. Children enter anywhere on the perimeter and cross the field in any direction, so peak demand spreads across the whole structure instead of queuing at one access point. The 3.8 m overall height keeps the installation visually low, which often matters on sensitive sites, in conservation areas and where residents object to tall equipment.
- Thirty-four steel load-bearing masts
- Thirty-four net modules in varying shapes and sizes
- Galvanised turnbuckles for rope tension adjustment
Tension adjustment as a maintenance feature
The galvanised turnbuckles are specified so that rope tension can be reset in service. On a structure with this many modules that is not a detail: nets in the busiest zones stretch faster than the rest, and being able to re-tension them individually is what keeps the whole field feeling consistent over a long service life instead of forcing early module replacement.
Materials
Hot-dip galvanised steel masts, 168.3 mm diameter. Braided polyamide rope of 18 mm diameter reinforced with zinc-coated steel cores. Aluminium and stainless steel connectors. Reinforced concrete foundations at 1.0 m depth.
Surfacing
The free height of fall is 2.85 m. The landing area must be laid with an impact-attenuating surface suited to that fall height and certified to EN 1177. The equipment itself conforms to PN EN 1176-1:2017; the surface below it is covered by EN 1177.

Frequently asked questions
Why is the fall height 2.85 m when the structure is only 3.8 m tall?
Free height of fall is measured from the highest accessible standing or climbing position, not from the top of the masts. The masts extend above the nets, so the fall height is lower than the overall dimension.
Can Pavo be supplied with fewer modules?
Yes. The mast and module count can be reduced for a smaller plot or a smaller budget. This changes the safety area, so a revised siting drawing is issued before order confirmation.
How often should the turnbuckles be adjusted?
Check at the annual inspection as standard, and more often in the first year while the ropes bed in. Modules on the main desire lines across the field will need attention before the rest.
