Safety in the pit

As safety is one of PE-Redskaber's biggest focus points, we also go into great detail about the automatic closing of the floor and automatic shielding of the "A hole" for closed pits. 

Furthermore, the edge pads provide extra safety that minimises the risk of the user or gymnast being injured on the edges of the pit in the case of an accident. 


Safety is always a focus

Safety in open pit

  • All our edge pads are firmly mounted onto the floor so they won't fall into the gaps
  • The edge pads are made of solid foam, which ensures that the gymnast does not step through onto the floor
  • All connections are made so that fingers and toes cannot get underneath and be caught
  • The trampoline stop (front edge pad) is only 9.2 mm wide, which allows the trampoline, fast track etc. to be extremely close to the landing when jumping

Safety in closed pit

  • The safety edge pad at the end of the landing foam prevents the gymnast from hitting the open floor when jumping too far
  • Furthermore, the edge pad prevents a child from falling between the floorboard and the landing foam
  • Large full-height plate in the A-hole to prevent a person from crawling or falling next to the open floor 

Recommendation from the Danish Working Environment Authority

  • Following a recommendation from Danish Working Environment Authority, PE-Redskaber has chosen, as standard, to install an additional safety system
  • All height adjustment systems are equipped with an extra safety shield around the wire wheels to minimize the risk of injury if the pit is not used as directed by PE-Redskaber
  • The power is automatically disconnected if a person steps under the trampoline and/or foam pad: the system must then be restarted by the caretaker, hall supervisor or other trained person
  • During cleaning/service, the "installation key" is placed in the key box down in the hole - it prevents the restart function up in the gym, which means no operation can take place while people are in the hole!
  • After cleaning/service the system is restarted in the gym and the control panels can be used again for the lift cushions, etc.


Your security is our responsibility

For us the safety of our users is first priority. That's why we've taken every step to make our pits as safe as possible.

All our edge pads are fixed onto the floor so that the gymnast does not risk falling into a gap

The edge pads are made of firm foam, which ensures that the gymnast does not pass through to the floor

All assemblies are made so that fingers and toes cannot get underneath them and get stuck

The trampolinestop (front edge pad) is only 9,2 mm wide which allows the trampoline to be placed very close to the landing foam for example
The safety edge pad at the end of the foam pad prevents the gymnast from falling into the floor underneath the pit when jumping too far

The edge pad prevents a child from falling between the floorboard and the foam pad

Large full-height plate in the A-hole prevents persons from crawling or falling next to the floorboard
On the recommendation of the Danish Working Environment Authority, we have also chosen to install an extra safety system as a standard feature in all of our pits

All height adjustment systems are equipped with an extra safety shield around the wire wheels to minimize the risk of injury if the pit is not used as directed by PE-Redskaber

The power is automatically disconnected if a person steps under the trampoline and/or foam pad - the system must then be restarted by the caretaker/ hall supervisor or other trained person

During cleaning/service, the "installation key" is placed in the key box down in the hole - it prevents the restart function up in the gym, which means no operation while people are in the hole!

After cleaning/service the system is restarted in the gym and the control panels can be used again for the lift cushions etc.
