From what age is a climbing wall suitable?

Our climbing walls are suitable for children from about 1.5 to 3 years old, when they can already stand securely and gain initial climbing experience. For younger children, we recommend always using it under adult supervision. There is no upper age limit. Pay attention to the weight specification; the toy regulation under which the climbing walls are produced specifies a load limit of 50 kg. Climbing walls for adults are loadable up to 80-100 kg.

Why a climbing wall in the children's room makes sense

A climbing wall in the children's room gives your child the opportunity to climb, do gymnastics, and let off steam indoors even in bad weather. It is space-saving, mounted directly on the wall, and can be supplemented with additional accessories such as a pull-up bar, rings, climbing rope, swing, or rope ladder. This turns the climbing wall into a versatile indoor climbing device that promotes strength, coordination, and agility and repeatedly invites new, creative play ideas. Along the way, your child learns to better judge distances, heights, and depths.

What should you consider when choosing?

• Material: Wood is particularly popular because it feels warm, is pleasant to grip, and blends harmoniously into the children's room. Beech or ash wood is especially robust and durable, while pine offers a good price-performance ratio.

  
• Load capacity: Pay attention to sufficient load-bearing capacity, especially if adults or multiple children want to use the climbing wall.
  
• Safety: The climbing wall should be securely mounted, splinter-free, and equipped with appropriate rung spacing. A soft mat under the climbing wall further reduces the risk of injury.

  
• Construction: Models with long side beams made from a single piece usually offer more stability. However, there are also variants that can be flexibly adjusted to different room heights.

  
• Accessories: Consider whether you want to add accessories like gymnastic rings, slide, or rope ladder now or later.

How much space do I need for a climbing wall?

For mounting a climbing wall, you need a free wall area that is slightly wider and higher than the climbing wall itself. Additionally, you should plan a free space of at least 1.5 meters in front of the climbing wall so your child can climb safely. We have play mats that provide the ideal landing spot in front of the climbing wall. 

How is the climbing wall mounted?

Our climbing walls come with detailed assembly instructions. The assembly is done on the wall with sturdy screws and anchors. For concrete walls, we recommend special heavy-duty anchors. Please contact us beforehand or get advice from a friendly staff member at the hardware store.

Can I combine the climbing wall with other products?

Yes, our climbing walls can be expanded with various accessories such as pull-up bars, climbing nets, slides, or swings. A combination with our climbing triangles is also possible to create a versatile movement course. We even have climbing arches suitable for the climbing wall. 

How do I care for my climbing wall?

Indoor climbing walls require little maintenance. An occasional wipe with a damp cloth is sufficient. Also, you should regularly check the wall mounting to ensure safety is permanently guaranteed.
