Merredin Tower
153-MER
The Merredin play tower is a tall circular Jarrah landmark centrepiece. Schools, public spaces and regional parks choose it when they want a focal point. It rises to 8 metres, with three round platforms at 2, 4 and 6 metres. A rope net and rope tunnels give children several routes up, and a giant tube slide or fireman’s pole brings them back down.
The height and the interconnected platforms turn it into an extended climbing challenge for older, confident children. Painted Jarrah battens keep clear sightlines through the structure, so supervision stays easy. Each element asks for a different skill. That is why a playground tower with slide, net and tunnels holds interest across repeat visits. As a Jarrah lookout tower it also anchors a reserve visually, not just physically.
We handcraft the Merredin play tower in our O’Connor WA workshop from locally sourced West Australian Jarrah hardwood. It stands on a footprint of 6700mm by 4300mm. The structure is designed in accordance with AS 4685, and impact-attenuating surfacing is required across the designated fall zone. We can customise colours to suit your project.
Installation available across Perth and WA, or supply-only Australia-wide with installation drawings for your contractor. As a rural landmark piece it anchors a playground or reserve. Enquire about the Merredin Tower for your next project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Merredin Tower need softfall surfacing?
Yes. The Merredin Tower has a free height of fall of 2000mm, and impact-attenuating surfacing is required throughout the designated fall zone.
What age group is the Merredin Tower for?
The Merredin Tower suits children aged 5 years and over. Three platforms at 2m, 4m and 6m let children climb as far as their confidence takes them and stop there, rather than committing to the full height on the first attempt.
What can children do on the Merredin Tower?
Climb by rope net or through rope tunnels between the three platforms, then descend by giant tube slide or fireman's pole. Painted Jarrah battens keep supervising staff able to see into the Merredin Tower at every level.
