What are some tips for hanging a swing?

When hanging a swing, consider clearance. You should allow at least 6 feet of clearance in the front and back of the swing. The space between the ground and the swing bottom should measure at or close to 24 inches. Surround the area underneath a swing with rubber mulch or wood chips for soft landings.

Should I remove and store swings in the winter?

Most wooden, vinyl, or belt swing seats and their accompanying chains or ropes are designed to withstand the elements, but you can lengthen the life of your swings by taking them down in the wintertime. A good compromise is to do your research and take down swings during the coldest two months of the season.

Do swing sets require assembly?

Swing sets do require assembly, but many come in kits that only take an hour or two to put together. If you have a swing set or playset assembled professionally, you can expect to pay between $150 and $500.
