Residential Slides

Residential slides are a great way to add fun and excitement to backyards everywhere. These slides feature a wide range of lengths, so even the most adventurous of kids will be able to get in on the fun. With an even wider range of colors to choose from, you'll have no trouble getting children excited about your new residential slide.

Residential playground slides are an important component of most backyard playgrounds. They provide a great centerpiece, both structurally and aesthetically, while ensuring casual fun for kids of all ages. Building a backyard slide turns your place of residence into an inviting one for children. If you have kids of your own, this is a great investment.

Playgrounds have demonstrable benefits for the physical and cognitive development of young children. Slides, swings, balance beams, and play structures help children understand their bodies and environment while fine-tuning motor development and coordination. Parks and playgrounds are also important to help children stay physically fit and active and maintain a healthy body weight.

All Shapes and Sizes

Once upon a time, the slide was a simple strip of metal, on which children could travel in one direction: straight down. Now, plastic-molding methods have come a long way and the wider use of commercial-grade plastic allows for a more diverse selection of captivating designs. Big playground slides can be as large as 8 feet! They curve and spiral and run side-by-side , offering a wide range of different experiences for youngsters with a need for speed.

Types of slides available for backyard playgrounds include straight, wave, and scoop slides as well as tube and tunnel slides. For younger children who may not be ready for more intense slides, wave and scoop slides are ideal. These slides are designed with sloped walls, providing a good grip for little ones, and they tend to have lower deck heights. For more adventurous kids, tube and tunnel slides available can provide a thrilling experience as users slide through the dark, experiencing the dizzying dip downward in a covered tube with a higher starting height.

Residential slides do not typically utilize all of the available perks of modern playground technology, due to size, safety, and budgetary constraints, but if your establishment can afford a commercial upgrade or allocate some extra funds , a full-sized plastic slide might be worth your while. If you're wondering "where can I find a residential playground slide near me?", PlaygroundEquipment.com has plenty to choose from.

Safety First!

Backyard slides aren’t held to the same safety expectations are those intended for public use, but, as no parent needs to be told, the safety of children is top priority. Let the published CPSC guidelines serve as a safety blueprint for residential playground installation.

A residential playground slide is also not intended for use by large numbers of children. If your kids and a few neighborhood friends are the only ones regularly playing, then residential equipmentwill do the job for the best price, but if you represent any kind of public establishment (day care, church, school, park, etc.) you must be prepared for your smallest customers to come in volumes. Under these conditions, residential playgrounds unfortunately don’t meet appropriate safety standards. For more details on the commercial-residential distinction, refer to our buyer’s guide .
