Playgrounds for Apartments and Multifamily Communities

An apartment playground shows up in leasing photos and resident reviews, but it often has to fit a small courtyard. This collection has 36 compact products for multifamily properties: 25 commercial playground structures under $15k for ages 2–5, 2–12 and 5–12, 6 spring riders, 3 playhouses, and a park bench and picnic table. Every product lists its equipment size and use zone, so you can check the commercial playground equipment against your site plan first. All of our playgrounds meet ASTM/CPSC compliance with IPEMA certification. For planning and design assistance reach out from this form or call us and speak to a human and not an AI bot or call center.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a full playground cost?

The compact playground structures in this collection run from $5,299 to $14,699. Spring riders and playhouses are $899 to $2,399, and benches or picnic tables are $599 to $1,129. Freight, surfacing and installation are extra, and we'll quote the freight to your property. A good rule of thumb for a turn-key playground project is to double the cost of the equipment you want to buy. That gets you close to the total project cost, including installation and safety surfacing.

Is it possible to add shade to a playground?

Many of our compact playgrounds can be ordered with shade. 16 of the structures in this collection offer a shade roof option, and many also come with a plastic roof option. You'll find the roof choices on each product page. To see all of them, check out our playgrounds with shade collection.

Is it cheaper to build or buy a playground for an apartment complex?

Building it yourself can look cheaper up front, but for a shared property we'd recommend buying commercial equipment. Residential and DIY sets aren't made for public use, and they don't come with a manufacturer's safety listing. Many of our product pages state ASTM/CPSC compliance with IPEMA certification, so check the product page for the one you're considering.
