Custom Slide Design and Engineering
Every custom slide begins with intentional design and disciplined engineering. Adventure Solutions approaches slide development as part of a larger system, not as a standalone product. Each slide is planned to fit the physical environment, user flow, and operational goals of the facility, whether it is an indoor play space, family entertainment center, or destination attraction.
Design work starts by evaluating ceiling heights, available floor space, traffic patterns, and how the slide integrates with surrounding play or adventure elements. From there, the engineering services team applies structural analysis, fall zone planning, and load considerations to help ensure the slide performs safely and consistently under heavy use. These steps are critical for commercial environments where durability and reliability are non negotiable.
Indoor and outdoor custom slides present different engineering challenges. Indoor slides must account for building constraints, clearances, and attachment points, while outdoor slides require careful consideration of environmental exposure and long term material performance. In both cases, safety standards and best practices guide every design decision.
Because Adventure Solutions designs, engineers, and builds its custom slides as part of a turnkey process, the result is a slide that functions seamlessly within the overall attraction. This integrated approach reduces complications during installation and helps ensure the finished slide delivers both performance and longevity.
In House Manufacturing and Fabrication Process
Adventure Solutions manufactures custom slides in house, allowing full control over quality, timelines, and consistency from start to finish. Rather than relying on outsourced suppliers, the team fabricates slide components using proven processes that align with the engineering requirements established during design. This approach helps ensure the finished slide matches the original specifications and performs as intended in real world conditions.
Material selection is driven by durability, safety, and long term performance. Slides are fabricated using materials suited for commercial environments, where repeated use, varying age groups, and operational demands place higher stress on every component. By controlling fabrication internally, Adventure Solutions is able to maintain strict quality standards and verify that each slide meets the demands of its intended application.
In house manufacturing also allows closer coordination between engineers, fabricators, and installation teams. Design adjustments can be addressed efficiently, and fabrication details are aligned with installation requirements from the beginning. This reduces delays, minimizes on site modifications, and helps projects stay on schedule.
By manufacturing custom slides within its own facilities in the United States, Adventure Solutions delivers a higher level of reliability and accountability. Clients benefit from a streamlined process, consistent build quality, and a finished slide that reflects the same attention to detail found throughout every Adventure Solutions project.

Materials Used in Custom Playground and Indoor Slides
Material selection plays a critical role in the safety, performance, and longevity of a custom slide. Adventure Solutions selects materials based on the specific environment, expected usage levels, and integration requirements of each project. This helps ensure every slide performs consistently in commercial and institutional settings where durability is essential.
Custom slides are commonly fabricated using molded plastics and related materials designed for repeated use and long term reliability. For indoor applications, materials are chosen to work within controlled environments while maintaining smooth ride characteristics and structural integrity. Outdoor slides require additional consideration for exposure to sunlight, temperature changes, and weather conditions, which influences material thickness, finish, and color stability.
Beyond the slide surface itself, supporting components and attachment points are selected to align with engineering requirements and safety standards. Material choices are coordinated with surrounding structures, whether the slide connects to a play system, climbing feature, or elevated platform. This integrated approach helps ensure compatibility across the entire attraction.
By selecting materials as part of a fully engineered and manufactured solution, Adventure Solutions delivers custom slides that are built for long term performance. Each material decision supports safety, reliability, and visual consistency within the overall design, reinforcing the value of a purpose built slide rather than a prefabricated alternative.
Indoor and Outdoor Custom Slide Applications
Custom slides are designed to function as part of a complete attraction rather than as isolated features. Adventure Solutions creates slides for a wide range of indoor and outdoor environments, tailoring each design to the specific goals and constraints of the project. This flexibility allows slides to enhance both compact indoor spaces and large scale destination attractions.
Indoor custom slides are commonly integrated into family entertainment centers, indoor play facilities, and adventure environments where ceiling height, circulation, and visual impact are critical considerations. Slides may connect multiple levels, complement climbing or soft play elements, or serve as a signature feature that anchors the overall experience. Careful planning helps ensure the slide supports traffic flow while remaining accessible and intuitive for users.
Outdoor custom slides are often incorporated into playgrounds, adventure parks, and themed attractions. These applications require additional planning for environmental exposure and long term use. Slide placement, orientation, and integration with surrounding structures are designed to maintain performance and safety over time while supporting the visual identity of the site.
Because Adventure Solutions designs slides as part of a complete system, each application benefits from seamless integration with other play and adventure components. Learn more about our play solutions and how custom slides can complement your overall attraction plan.
Turnkey Installation, Safety, and Long Term Performance
Installation is a critical phase in the performance and safety of a custom slide. Adventure Solutions provides professional installation services delivered by experienced crews who understand the engineering requirements of each project. Because installation teams work closely with designers and manufacturers, slides are installed according to plan with attention to alignment, connections, and overall system integrity.
Safety is addressed throughout the entire process, from initial design through installation and ongoing use. Custom slides are engineered and installed to meet applicable safety standards and best practices for commercial and institutional environments. Considerations such as fall zones, access points, transitions, and clearances are incorporated to support safe operation under daily use.
Long term performance is a priority for every custom slide project. Slides are designed and installed to withstand high traffic, repeated use, and the operational demands of active facilities. Proper installation reduces wear, supports structural stability, and helps maintain consistent performance over time. See our installation services for how projects are delivered on site.
Adventure Solutions also supports clients beyond installation by offering ongoing inspection services. This helps ensure slides continue to operate safely and effectively, protecting both the investment and the experience delivered to guests year after year.
