Smart Playrooms Tunnel Climbing Net
Suspended Sensory + Climbing Experience for Playrooms & Forts

The Smart Playrooms Tunnel Climbing Net is a visually striking suspended climbing feature that gives kids a completely different way to move, climb, and explore. Designed to connect forts, platforms, or play structures, this tunnel-style net creates a floating, enclosed pathway kids love to crawl through, hang from, and relax inside. It adds both adventure and a unique sensory experience to any playroom or monkey bar zone.

Designed for Imaginative + Active Play

Unlike traditional climbing elements, the tunnel net surrounds children in a safe, enclosed structure that feels both adventurous and secure.

The suspended design introduces gentle movement and spatial awareness, making it both exciting and regulating.

• Anchor directly to reinforced ceiling & wall supports
• Integrate into forts, lofts, or custom structures

Consult a licensed General Contractor to evaluate load paths, mounting hardware, and ceiling structure.
