Professional balance beam installation - floor-level gymnastics beams assembled safely with stable, level positioning. Let little gymnasts practise their skills at home.
Gymnastics Practice at Home
Kids love gymnastics. But waiting for weekly classes isn't enough for some. A home balance beam lets them practise anytime - safely, on a properly assembled, level surface.
💡 Pro tip: Start with a low beam (10-15cm). Children build confidence before moving higher. Most home beams are intentionally low for safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of balance beams do you install?
Low floor beams for home use - typically 10-15cm off the ground. High beams that need wall mounting or permanent installation we'd assess individually.
Do they need fixing to the floor?
Most home balance beams are freestanding with stable feet. We ensure they're level and won't slide on your floor. Higher beams may need anchoring.
What about crash mats?
Recommended for any beam work. We can advise on sizing and position - mats should extend beyond the beam to catch sideways falls.
Indoor or outdoor?
Most home beams are indoor. Outdoor wooden beams need different treatment for weather resistance - we can advise.
