Durable Fabrics
Not only is the craftsmanship of our swings the highest level of quality, but we also choose the highest quality outdoor fabrics as well. We use a combination of Sunbrella Fabric and our in-house brand DuraCord Fabric. Sunbrella branded fabric is the foremost fabric in the outdoor industry made from 100% solution-dyed acrylic. Solution-dyed acrylic, which means the fibers of the fabric are dyed in color before they are woven into the fabric. Sunbrella is not printed or dyed after the fabric is made. Sunbrella is water-resistant and will not fade. You can even soak it in bleach and the color will remain the same. Which is why to use Sunbrella fabric on the tops of our swings. DuraCord is not only fast-drying but is also resistant to rot, mold, mildew, and staining, as well as Sunbrella.
Oak Spreader Bar
A wood that is naturally resistant to both rot and insect infestation, and has oils that repel water, Oak blends both exceptional strength and a handsome appearance. Our Oak spreader bars are repeatedly hand-dipped in honey-gold marine-grade varnish allowing a longer outdoor life and exceptional good looks. Our Oak spreader bars are a full 1 inch thick, compared to most other competitor’s spreader bars that measure at ⅞ inch. A thicker spreader bar allows for more stability, allowing the Swing Cushion to sit firmly between the Ring knots. Our spreader bars also feature countersink drilled holes. Countersink drilling is a technique that uses a trumpet drill bit that produces a hole with no hard angles, allowing the rope to pass through without any sharp edges to wear the rope.
Hardware
We plate all our hanging hardware with Zinc Plated Coating, including Hanging bracket that comes standard with our single swings. The zinc-plated coating prevents the accumulation of rust and ensures a longer outdoor life. Our very own One-piece ring-knot and chain, a product of years of development, permanently attaches the chain to the O-ring. This produces a swing that is more durable and most importantly makes it impossible to lose the chain
