FAQ

Climbing wall questions

Where do you build climbing walls?

We're based in Altona North, Melbourne, and build and install climbing walls across Victoria and Australia-wide. Projects further afield can be discussed on request.

What standard do your climbing walls meet?

Every wall is designed to AS 2316, the Australian Standard for artificial climbing structures: AS 2316.1.1 for roped climbing walls and AS 2316.1.2 for bouldering walls. Read our guide, AS 2316 explained.

Can you supply the climbing holds and route setting too?

Yes. We stock climbing holds, macros and volumes from 25+ brands, can supply a complete opening hold package, and provide professional route setting to bring the wall to life.

Who should inspect my wall once it's open?

AS 2316 requires an annual comprehensive inspection by a competent person external to the facility operator, and we recommend an inspector who is also independent of the wall builder. Our specialist team provides independent AS 2316 inspections across Australia and New Zealand.

What do you need to quote a climbing wall?

The location, the size of the space and its ceiling height, photos or plans, the type of climbing (bouldering, roped or training), who will use the wall, and your budget and timeline. We then visit your site to work through the brief with you.

Do you build home climbing walls?

Yes. We design and build home woodies and system boards, including MoonBoard and Kilter Board home walls.
