Playhouses galore!

Playhouses are an excellent way for young children to develop their motor skills. You can choose from pre-made playhouses for kids, or make one yourself and put it in the back garden!

Most playhouses need to be erected on a flat level site. For sloping sites, modify the detail by embedding some of the posts deeper, or using posts of different lengths. However, remember that a playhouse which is close to ground is a safer playhouse.

Timber, which is to be embedded in the ground, should be of very durable quality. All other timber in the playhouse which is not in ground contact should be of durable quality but staining or painting is still recommended.

Consult your timber stockist on what timbers are available and suitable for this exterior exposed location. Construction should be as sketched in the exploded diagram. All fasteners should be galvanised (nuts, bolts, nails).
