Plastic Border

We offer a hard playground border. Plastic timbers are connected with anchor joints. Stackable joints are available to stack two 6" timbers for a 12" high border. This is a durable plastic product. Anchor joints can also be purchased separately to be used with 2" x 6" x (any length 2' - 12') lumber.

Price for 44.5" plastic timbers (4' length with connectors) is $11.99 each.
Price for anchor joints is $6.99 each.
Price for stackable joints is $5.99 each.
Lumber prices vary but run approximately $1/LF (2" x 6").
Installation prices are quoted per job but run approximately $75 base price plus $4 per lumber board (after cutting) or $3 per plastic timber.


(Example only, pricing may vary: A border job with 20 plastic timbers and 20 connectors would be $239.80 for the timbers, $139.80 for the anchor joints, and $135 installation.)

This process includes ordering or picking up materials, cutting (lumber), drilling holes into lumber or plastic timbers for anchor joints (connectors), delivering it, assembling the boards and connectors, driving stakes into ground and putting caps on connectors.
Soft Playground Border - Safety Sock
Safety Sock

We offer a 12" diameter Filtrexx Safety Sock. It is a mesh tube filled with playground wood chips. It is soft and can be blown around the perimeter of a playground as a safe playground border to hold in playground wood chips.

Price is $2/LF. (Including material and installation; must be installed at same time as playground wood chips)

Plastic Playground Border (6")
Weed Barrier

This is a fabric that is laid down inside the playground border before the playground wood chips are blown in. Fabric width is 3-6'. Each row is overlapped by 6" and staked into place to minimize weed growth. Water and air can permeate the fabric, so rain water isn't trapped.

Installation of weed barrier fabric is custom quoted per job (with playground wood chips installation). Most smaller, backyard residential jobs run about $125-$175.
