Our kit uses 8mm heavy-duty galvanised steel cable, a professional spring brake and a dual-wheeled pulley, supplied in lengths from 20m to 100m — so it suits a modest back garden or a run across a paddock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost garden zip wires sold in the UK are toys. This one isn't! The components are the same grade we use on the installations we carry out ourselves, which is why the kit carries adults as well as children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho says your back garden can't double as a miniature adventure park?

The extra allows for sag, for wrapping the anchors and for any error in your measuring. Too much cable is never a problem; too little means the line can't be tensioned properly.

Too little and the rider stalls part way along; too much and they arrive too fast for the brake. On flat ground the drop comes from height at the launch end rather than from the ground, which the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/pages\/slope-calculator\"\u003eSlope Calculator\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ewill size for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat size spring will I receive?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe spring brake is sized at 10% of your cable length. A 40m zip wire ships with a 4m spring, a 60m with a 6m spring, and so on. You don't need to specify it — we match it to your order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I tension the cable?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn two stages. The tensioning winch takes the weight of the cable off the ground and removes most of the slack. The turnbuckle then makes the fine adjustment, and the test weight bag lets you check the sag and the ride before anyone gets on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I use posts instead of trees?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Trees need to be healthy, mature and well positioned, but purpose-built timber posts do exactly the same job — and plenty of installations use one tree and one post. The kit is the same either way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat size do the trees need to be?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a guide, look for healthy, mature trees with a trunk diameter of at least 30cm and deep root systems. Oak, beech, ash and sycamore are good choices. Avoid young or shallow-rooted trees, anything showing disease or decay, and trees that lean or sway heavily in wind. The PVC tube and tree sling in the kit protect the bark at both anchors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHow long does it take to install?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn afternoon is typical for a straightforward run between two trees, working with a second person. Post installations take longer because the posts need setting and time to cure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs it suitable for adults?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The cable, carabiners, pulley and brake are all heavy-duty, which is what separates this from the toy kits sold elsewhere. The maximum rider weight is 150kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy from Limitless Zip Wires\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComponents sourced from UK and European manufacturers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe same grade of equipment we use on our own installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten and video guidance included with every kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree UK delivery, dispatched in 3–5 working days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 5 stars across more than 240 reviews\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNationwide installation available if you'd rather we fitted it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Limitless Zip Wires","offers":[{"title":"20m \/ Plastic Button Seat (lighter adjustable rope) \/ No -
