Outdoor Accessories for Public Parks

Outdoor accessories for public parks allow municipalities, state governments, and federal authorities to create more comfortable, safer, and more environmentally friendly public facilities.  Fire prevention and tree protection rank foremost on the list of environmentally safeguards.  Trash containment is the key to keeping the grounds clean at all times, particularly in periods of heavy rains.  It is also important to create shade for visitors, even in those areas that do not have a great deal of trees to offer natural cover.

Outdoor accessories for public parks allow park managers to create a more environmentally conscious for visitors.  Trash receptacles, by themselves, are not enough to keep the grounds free of trash.  A sudden rain can cause the trash can to flood, spilling the contents all over the forest floor.  Rain bonnets and dome lids protect waste receptacle contents from heavy rains.  Their curved design at the top allows rainwater to cascade off the sides, away from the trash can interior.  These covers also prevent odor from escaping, and they offer a more attractive appearance than a typical open-ended trash barrel. 

Another environmental concern is for the safety of trees in the park.  Bicyclists and skateboarders occasionally collide with trees, causing severe damage to trunks and roots.  Steel tree guards encircle trees and keep them safe from these collisions.  The round perimeter they present also helps deflect a direct impact with a vehicle.  

Outdoor accessories for public parks also help keep the facility safe.  There is always the possibility that the contents of trash cans could catch on fire if someone dumps ash or throws a cigarette into the container.  There are a number of accessories that can be fitted to any trash receptacle that will prevent these occurrences.    Ash bonnets provide an appropriate receptacle for cigarettes that keeps fire away from paper and plastic contents.  Anti-skateboard tabs area another essential for any park that has a paved parking lot or paved sidewalks.  Regardless of whether or not skating is allowed in the park, there are plenty of people who are going to do it anyway.  Anti-skateboard tabs install at the edges of benches and picnic tables in order to keep skaters away from people sitting on the benches or eating at the tables.  Most benches and seats can be fitted with these safety accessories.

There are also outdoor accessories for public parks that are intended to create a more comfortable experience for park goers.  Umbrellas rank among some of our most popular accessories because they allow facility managers to create shade in areas of the park that may have been cleared of trees.  Both picnic areas and sports play areas are typically very open spaces with little or no natural shade.  Umbrellas can be installed in picnic tables to shield occupants from the sun.  However, they are not limited to picnic areas alone.  Umbrella stands can be positioned anywhere in the park to mount umbrellas for additional sun protection. 

We also have accessories that protect table legs from impact, and we have receptacle stands that secure trash cans against theft.
