Do wooden swing sets....

require some kind of holes dug for poles & set in concrete like the old school metal ones?  I guess I've never really looked that closely--LOL!

Re: Do wooden swing sets....

  • We didn't dig any holes or set anything into concrete for ours........
  • um, I sure hope not because we didn't do anything special for ours and it hasn't moved in 3 years, it's also a heavy set with a playhouse and everything.

  • Our's did not.
  • No, but I heard that it is recommended to get more heavy duty anchors than what originally comes with the set. Especially, if you live in a high wind area (which we do).

    Ditto this. We had ours blow over during high wind so DH had to reanchor it with heavy duty ones. Dh was out of town when it happened and didn't believe that something so heavy would be able to blow over.

  • No but  you have to make sure the grass you are putting it on is level, if not you will have to figure out a way to level it.  Which could make you have to dig and have extra support.
