Children's playgrounds in Germany must be subject to regular inspection and maintenance. The measures for inspection result from the general road safety obligation. The DIN EN 1176-7 standardisation contains all important points for installation and maintenance. It is obligatory to comply conscientiously with this standard.
A playground safety inspection is carried out with the help of a checklist to contribute to safety on playgrounds. The conscientious documentation and logging of deficiencies and incidents helps to ensure that safety risks are minimised or eliminated.
