Planning for commercial water park equipment starts with the activities the site needs to support, the available space and how people will move through it. This page lists the Mobile Kayak Rack, which is for kayak storage rather than water play, so check that an item matches the project brief before specifying it.

Water park equipment planning

Outdoor water park equipment may be exposed to sun, rain and regular use. Check materials, fixing details and maintenance needs against the site conditions. The Mobile Kayak Rack is listed here as a storage product; its name does not indicate that it is a play structure.

Allow for circulation, safe access and drainage when planning a water-play area, and confirm any consent requirements with the local authority. The Mobile Kayak Rack is an example of the product listed on this page, but it should only be considered where kayak storage is part of the site programme.

What should I confirm with water park equipment manufacturers?

Ask for installation requirements, material specifications, maintenance guidance and any relevant safety documentation. Check that the equipment suits the site and its intended users.

Is a kayak rack water-play equipment?

The Mobile Kayak Rack is for storing kayaks, not for slides or water play. Confirm the intended use of an item before including it in a water-play specification.

What should be checked before specifying outdoor equipment?

Review the site layout, drainage, access and exposure to weather. Confirm consent requirements with the relevant local authority.
