Things to consider when purchasing the Walkboard Set of 8:

  • Timber Maintenance: Regular cleaning, sanding and oiling are recommended to maintain the timber's condition, especially when used outdoors. Refer to the Timber Maintenance Guide below for detailed instructions on how to care for your Eucalyptus timber.
  • Natural Weathering: Eucalyptus timber, when left outdoors, will naturally weather to a silver-grey colour over time. Small cracks may also appear due to the wood expanding and contracting with the elements; this is a natural process and not a structural defect.
  • Protection from Elements: For optimal longevity, it's highly recommended to keep the walkboards undercover or cover them when not in use, especially in direct sun or rain.
  • Hardware Checks: Periodically check and tighten any metal hardware (screws, hinges, bolts) to ensure the continued strength and stability of the walkboards.
  • Suitable Age Range: This product is designed for children aged 3 years and above. Adult supervision is recommended during play.
  • Measurements: Each walkboard measures 102 (L) x 25 (W) x 8.5 (H) cm. The set includes boards in lengths of 46, 54, 62, 70, 78, 86, 94, and 102 (L) cm.

Timber Maintenance Guide

  1. We recommend to clean your outdoor furniture several times a year. We suggest to use an outdoor wood furniture cleaner and follow their instructions. Also remove any cobwebs, leaves or dirt before cleaning and dry thoroughly in the sun after cleaning. We do not recommend a high pressure washer.
  2. We recommend to sand and oil your furniture as required throughout the year. The weather will deteriorate timber so the location of the furniture and the weather such as rain and humidity will wear timber at different rates. Using a natural furniture oil will help to maintain the beautiful colour of the timber and hold the necessary moisture in the wood. Please follow the manufacturers directions for oiling. Usually only a light sand needed.
  3. If your outdoor furniture gets wet, we suggest that you dry it out in the sun. Therefore helping to prevent mould and wood rot.
  4. For best longevity of your outdoor furniture we also suggest that you keep it undercover or cover it when not in use. If the furniture can be kept under a roof out of direct weather and sun, it will help to make the most out of your furniture.
  5. The metal hardware can become loose over time, so we recommend that you check the screws, hinges and bolts throughout the year. Hence helping to keep the furniture strong and in the best working condition.
    Outdoor furniture made from hardwood Eucalyptus and is suitable for outdoor use. However as with all timber, the weather will wear the wood. When left outdoors eucalyptus furniture will naturally weather to a silver grey colour.
