We support you from start to finish with every aspect of your project
The first and most important step of our playground design process is the free initial consultation. During the consultation we will discuss your project, your ideas, your goals, budget and requirements so that we can plan & design a bespoke playground that you will be delighted with.
Once we have a full understanding of the scope and goals of your project, we begin thoroughly planning your new playground. During this stage we can advise on planning permission, funding options and safety & environmental considerations, as well as giving approximate timescales for each major milestone of the project.
Our design process is completely bespoke. After we have fully planned out your project our designers will get to work on on the design of the layout, equipment placement and overall look and feel of the playground and produce high quality CAD drawings.
Once the design is complete and you have approved it, we will begin the process of manufacturing the play equipment that we have specified using only the best quality, sustainably sourced materials in our own in house facility.

Here at Setter Play, we manufacture all our playground equipment to the highest standard, from the best quality materials – guaranteed to last for many years to come. You can stretch the lifespan of your play equipment by arranging regular inspections to ensure it’s in great condition and more importantly, safe for children to use.
The safety of children doesn’t solely depend on the initial design of your new school playground. You need to make sure that it’s well-maintained. We recommend three types of inspection:
Inspections will help to minimise your maintenance costs and keep your play equipment looking great for longer.
Before you jump in and create the coolest-looking play area – packed with fantastic equipment, take the time to weigh up all your options. School playgrounds aren’t just for fun. They help to develop vital communication and problem-solving skills from an early age, as well as fine motor skills. Make sure you take into consideration the age of your students, their abilities, the environment and your budget/funding.
