Playground Outdoor Tunnels & Crawl Tubes
Kids love a good adventure, and nothing sparks their imagination quite like a tunnel to crawl through, peek out of, or race a friend across. Our Playground Outdoor Tunnels & Crawl Tubes bring that sense of exploration to any play space, giving children a fun way to move, hide, navigate, and discover. Whether you’re updating an existing playground or planning a brand-new layout, these components add instant excitement without demanding much space or installation stress.
We offer a complete line of playground crawl tubes and tunnels including Panels, Straight and Wavy Climber, Full and Split Tubes, Elbows, and Joint Connection Hardware.
We use commercial-grade components so our crawl tubes are engineered to resist corrosion, fading, and mildew and your playground equipment will last. Available in multiple color combinations so you can find the right playground for you.
We designed all playground equipment to meet public playground safety standards (ASTM 1487 & CPSC) because we care about the safety of your children. It’s a perfect addition to any park, school, apartment, early education center, or other organization that enriches childhood through play.
Why Crawl Tubes & Outdoor Tunnels Are a Playground Favorite
There’s something timeless about a good crawl space. Kids see a tunnel, and suddenly it’s a secret passage, a shortcut, a hiding spot, or the start of a brand-new game. Our playground crawl tubes nurture that imagination while giving children a safe, durable way to move their bodies and explore their environment.
Here’s why so many schools, parks, and community spaces love adding playground outdoor tunnels to their layouts:
- Encourages Active Movement: Crawling, scooting, climbing, and peeking all help build strength, coordination, and spatial awareness — the kind of skills kids develop naturally when play feels like an adventure.
- Built to Last: Every tube and connector is made from commercial-grade materials engineered to resist fading, corrosion, mildew, and everyday wear. They’re built for long-term outdoor use, even in high-traffic play areas.
- Fits Into Any Playground Design: Crawl tubes work beautifully as standalone features or as connectors between structures. Whether you have a large open space or a compact play area, they offer big fun in a small footprint.
- Safe & Reliable Construction: All components meet or exceed ASTM and CPSC public playground safety standards. That means smoother edges, balanced layouts, and durable construction you can feel good about.
Easy Installation Options: From straight tubes to elbows, full tunnels to split designs, our components install quickly and integrate seamlessly into new or existing play spaces
