Important Care & Safety Information
Painting Required for Durability
This cubby house arrives with a temporary water-based stain for protection during transport and storage. For long-term durability, weather resistance, and to maintain your warranty, you must paint the cubby house with high-quality primer and paint. Painting before assembly is easier and ensures all parts are properly coated.
Recommended Painting Process
- Paint before assembly for best results and complete coverage
- Apply minimum 2 coats of quality primer, sealer & undercoat (we recommend Dulux 1 Step Prep - provides mould resistance, stain blocking, and superior finish)
- Apply minimum 2 coats of exterior-grade paint (we recommend Dulux Weathershield for weather protection)
- Use a brush rather than spray for better coverage and penetration into the timber
- Ensure complete coverage of all surfaces including edges and corners
Adult Supervision Required
Children should always be supervised when playing in and around the cubby house. This product is recommended for ages 3+. Regular maintenance checks are recommended to ensure all components remain secure and in good condition.
Placement & Weather Safety
Level Ground: Position on level ground to prevent unwanted movement or instability. Uneven ground can cause timber movement, resulting in gaps and warping.
Good Drainage: Place in an area with good drainage to prevent moisture buildup, rot, and mould. Avoid low-lying areas prone to flooding.
Weather Protection: This play equipment is not cyclone-rated. Secure loose items, cover the cubby house, and bring smaller pieces indoors before severe weather. Avoid use during heavy rain, thunderstorms, or strong winds.
Securing: Securing the cubby house to the ground may be required for your area, especially if prone to severe storms. Consult a professional for the best method if needed.
Natural Timber Characteristics
Timber is a natural product and may develop minor cracks and gaps over time. This is normal thermal expansion and contraction due to moisture content changes and external surroundings. In drier times of year, timber may show some minor gaps and cracks as moisture is dried out. These gaps and cracks are completely normal and will eventually close back up once moisture returns. A crack in the timber does not affect the strength, durability, or structural integrity of the cubby house.
Placement Tips
- Position on level ground with good drainage to prevent moisture buildup
- Ensure adequate ventilation to prevent condensation buildup
- Consider placement that offers natural shade or protection from harsh afternoon sun
- Use a waterproof cover during extended periods of wet weather
- Support required under all floor joins and under all walls to limit movement
- If roof, windows, or doors look crooked, use a level to check if the cubby house is sitting level and adjust as needed
- Ensure adequate clearance space around the cubby for slide, climbing wall, and stair extensions
