Playground Equipment Straight Overhead Scaling Ladder



The Playground Equipment Straight Overhead Scaling Ladder is a commercial overhead climbing challenge for ages 5-12. It features 13 rungs across the top and two side-mounted rungs for mounting and dismounting, giving kids a full-length monkey bar experience that tests grip endurance and upper-body strength. Holds 2-5 kids, with an 84" fall height and use zone of 14' 2" x 28' 0". Meets ASTM F1487 and CPSC #325 safety standards.

BEST FOR: I'd recommend the Straight Overhead Scaling Ladder for any site that wants a classic monkey bar challenge. With 13 rungs and room for up to 5 kids, it handles high-traffic playgrounds well. It is a natural centerpiece for a fitness circuit or works as a standalone piece for parks and schools.

What Makes the Playground Equipment Straight Overhead Scaling Ladder Stand Out?

This is the straight-line version of the overhead ladder, and it is probably the most popular fitness piece in the lineup. Thirteen rungs give kids a solid run from one end to the other, and the two side-mounted rungs make it easy to climb up and get started without needing a boost. Multiple kids can be on it at once, which keeps lines moving on busy playgrounds.

Powder-coated steel construction with rubberized grips on every rung means this holds up through years of heavy use and all four seasons. At 28 feet long, it does require some space, but the narrow 14' 2" width helps. We install these regularly at schools across New Jersey and can walk you through surfacing options for the 84" fall height. Call us at 201-670-4000.
