A simple slide, the classic backyard amusement, can offer children of all ages hours of entertainment. Depending on a child’s age and the slide’s design, dimensions can vary widely. Some slides attach to playground swing sets; lightweight, smaller freestanding models suit younger children ideally. When selecting a slide, keep in mind the size and weight of your growing children and how long you hope to use the slide in the future. In addition, take stock of the location where you will install the slide, keeping it clear of tree branches and other obstacles.

Most slides are measured by their total length along the diagonal. You can easily estimate the approximate length and height along the horizontal and vertical axes once you know the angle between the slide and the ground. For safety purposes, it’s advisable to position your slide at no greater than 30 degrees, with no point along the slide ascending to over 50 degrees.
