Playground Equipment 90-Degree Straight Rung Horizontal Ladder



Playground Equipment 90-Degree Straight Rung Horizontal Ladder is a freestanding overhead climber for ages 5-12 that puts a 90-degree bend in the classic monkey bar layout. Standard straight rungs keep it familiar, but when kids reach the center turn, they have to reposition their body to keep going. Holds 5-10 children with a 96" fall height and a 19' 11" x 19' 11" use zone. Meets ASTM F1487 and CPSC #325 safety standards.

BEST FOR: I'd recommend the 90-Degree Straight Rung Horizontal Ladder for schools and parks that want a monkey bar setup with a twist -- literally. Kids who have mastered a straight overhead ladder will find the center bend just challenging enough to keep them coming back.

What Makes the Playground Equipment 90-Degree Straight Rung Horizontal Ladder Stand Out?

This is the overhead ladder for sites that want something beyond a straight-line monkey bar set but don't need a full obstacle course. The first half feels like any standard overhead ladder -- kids swing from rung to rung in a rhythm. Then they hit the 90-degree bend and have to change direction while hanging, which is harder than it sounds. It is a simple design tweak that adds a real skill challenge.

Powder-coated steel posts with polyethylene components stand up to weather and heavy daily use. The near-square footprint (just under 20' x 20') keeps surfacing simple. We offer Primary, Neutral, and Custom color options. For help choosing the right overhead ladder shape for your playground, call us at 201-670-4000.
