Before choosing a Plum climbing frame, you should have already measured your available outdoor space. A suitable place for a Plum outdoor climbing frame should be a clear space with flat ground that isn’t too hard, such as grass or bark chips.

They make this as a basemetal climbing frame and it’s perfect for small gardens on its own or you can add some of the extras on to it if you have a bigger garden. You can get monkey bars (the jungle run) and a slide which make it a much bigger option (can be bought as a whole or separate), but just the base set is excellent on it’s own in my opinion.

Parts made of metal and plastic should be cleaned periodically to prevent rust and corrosion, and swing hooks may need to be lubricated if they start squeaking when your child is swinging.
