About Us
Yates Playgrounds is a family-run business with a proud legacy in steel fabrication and engineering, spanning three generations. We specialise in creating high-quality playground equipment for outdoor play areas that’s not only safe and durable but also designed to spark joy and fun for children.
Our journey in steel fabrication began long before we entered the world of playgrounds. From producing bulletproof panels for army tanks during the Second World War to manufacturing agricultural trailers, narrow boats, and ocean-going yachts, we have a rich and varied history in delivering high-standard steelwork projects.
In 1992, we were commissioned to design and manufacture our first playground for the local parish of Rufford. This marked a new and exciting chapter for us, and ever since, we’ve focused exclusively on creating playground equipment. Over the years, demand for our products has grown, and we’ve had the privilege of completing hundreds of playground projects across the UK.
We offer a wide range of playground equipment, including swings, slides, roundabouts, rocking horses, seesaws, youth shelters, and Multi-Use Games Areas (MUGAs). As trusted playground suppliers, we take pride in designing, manufacturing, and installing play areas tailored to meet your specific site and budget requirements.
At Yates Playgrounds, our mission is simple – to create play spaces where children can safely explore, have fun, and make lasting memories.
