Are the playground mats available in larger sizes? What is the approximate cost of shipping per mat?
Anonymous
Our Playground Swing Mats come in one size only, but we do have other sized mats on our Playground Mats page. The largest Playground Swing Mat we carry is a 3' x 5' mat. The price for shipping of one mat is $126.99, but the shipping for multiple mats will vary depending on your location from our facilities. You can get an exact charge when you take the mat(s) into our shopping cart and put in your zip code.
Do the swing mats go above the wood chips or under them?
roger
Our Playground Swing Mats are meant to be placed over your wood chips to prevent the wood chips from being displaced underneath your swing set or slide.
How do the mats react with rain? Will they build mold if exposed to moisture?
Anonymous
Our Playground Swing Mats will not build up mold if exposed to moisture and hold up just like your tires would in rain. These mats are made from recycled tires.
Do you have any playground mats that are ADA compliant?
Anonymous
Our Playground Swing Mats are ADA compliant.
We are looking at using your mats on top of a solid surface at exit points of slides and other features. will they stay in place or will the need to be attached?
Anonymous
Our Playground Swing Mats are heavy enough to stay in place on their own. They do not need to be attached.
Can these go on concrete?
Anonymous
Our Playground Swing Mats can be installed over concrete, or any other hard, flat surface.
Am I able to cut these down to a smaller size?
Chris
You can cut our Playground Swing Mats to a smaller size with a band saw or with a very large bread knife. If you do cut them with a bread knife, you will want to make sure you have plenty of elbow grease handy.
Can the mats be placed over grass?
We recommend placing our Playground Swing Mats over hard surface but they may be used over grass.
Will this work over sand?
John Campbell
We recommend placing our Playground Swing Mats over a hard surface but they may be used over leveled sand.
Are they hot underfoot? Compared to grass, artificial turf or mulch.
Vince
The mat would get warm, depending on how much direct sunlight it receives. About as warm as artificial turf, the slide itself, or a swing seat. We always recommend wearing foot protection/footwear no matter what the outside play surface or temperature is.
Does water go through the swing mat? We are putting it over tree roots to protect the tree from the kids swinging and wearing down its roots
These mats will hold up water on the surface, and will not allow it to pass through.
I'm thinking about putting these mats under swings and slides to our playground. I'm using the Rubber Playground Mulch in the other area's. My questions are...
1--if placing the mats on top of the landscape fabric will mold grow under mats?
2--do you have carry larger solid mats to cover area under swings instead of individually?
3--do the mats get hot?
Connie Anderson
Even though rubber is not a good food source for mold, if dirt/dust gets trapped in the mat and the conditions are right, it is possible. If this happens, bleach water and Sun Light should fix the issue in a few hours. Also, if mold starts to form, spray bleach water on the surface and the mold will start to die within 2-4 hours. We recommend mixing a spray bottle with 1/3 bleach and 2/3 water, spray the molded surface, and then expose the surface to direct sunlight. Playground swing mats are the largest playground mats that we have. The mat would get warm, depending on how much direct sunlight it receives. We always recommend wearing foot protection/footwear no matter what the outside play surface or temperature is.
What is the load capacity of the 2-14" think Playground mats? The material and thickness are ideal for use as support pads under RV leveling jack feet.
alan
We do not recommend using these mats under the RV leveling jack feet. Even though the mats should be able to hold the weight, they do not have a load capacity rating and are not designed for this application.
Are the mats permeable so that water drains through them?
No, these are not permeable.
How heavy is this mat? I need something my kiddo won't move.
Leslie
This mat weighs about 80 lbs.
We’re looking for a mat to be behind our pool slide. Would this be a mat you recommend as kids climb the slide and could fall to a concrete deck
Bill
Yes, this mat would be suitable for that use.
