If you're looking for a exciting activity in your garden while ensuring safety, a garden trampoline is an excellent choice, because it can provide both entertainment and physical fitness.
Whether you have a small backyard or a large garden, there's always a perfect trampoline size for your garden.
Let's go and check how to install a round garden trampoline, specifically the 8ft round trampoline. And the installation of garden trampoline 10ft or garden trampoline 12ft is similar as 8ft round trampolines.

 

I. Preparation: Tools you need

When you buy a trampoline, the seller will prepare all the installation tools for you in the package. Please open the trampoline package and read the instructions carefully before installation.
 
 

II. Installation

1. Choose the Right Place in Your Garden

Select a flat area in your garden firstly. If you're installing a small garden trampoline such as like the 8ft model, you won't need too much space, but it's still important to ensure the ground is level to avoid any uneven bouncing. The area should be no rocks, sharp objects, or anything that could damage the trampoline mat.
 

Ensuring that your trampoline is mounted on level ground is critical for both safety and product longevity. Installing a trampoline on uneven ground can lead to a number of serious risks, including:

 

  • Structural imbalance:

    A tilted base causes uneven forces to be applied to the trampoline frame. Over time, this imbalance can lead to metal fatigue and structural fractures, greatly reducing the life of the trampoline.

 

  • Spring tension displacement:

    When a trampoline is uneven, the springs on one side are subject to excessive tension, which can also shorten their lifespan.

 

  • Lost bounce trajectory:

    Uneven ground can significantly affect bounce dynamics, increasing the likelihood that users will land off-center. This can increase the risk of colliding with the safety net poles or even falling off the trampoline.

 

Therefore, proper site preparation is not only a recommendation, but also key to ensuring user safety and maintaining product integrity.

 

2. Assemble the Frame

Assembling the trampoline's frame. The frame is assembled by multiple pieces.

Make sure the frame is properly aligned and level. For larger trampolines, you can ask your family and friends to help you.

3. Attach the Springs

Once the frame is complete, you can lay the jumping mat out flat and attach the springs by a spring puller. Make sure that each spring is attached securely.

You can install 4 springs diagonally first, make sure the entire jumping mat is basically stable, and then install the remaining springs.

4. Assembly the Mat and Safety Net

For most garden trampoline UK models, the trampoline usually comes with a net to prevent falls and accidents.

Install the net pole tube firstly, then assembly the safety net. Double-check that the net is tightly secured and no gaps before bouncing.

5. Test

Try to test the trampoline by pressing down on different sections of the jumping mat. Ensure all the springs are tight. If everything are ok, you're ready to start bouncing!


II. Tips for Maintaining Your Garden Trampoline

  • Try to keep the trampoline clean and dry to prevent rusting.
  • In winter or raining days, better to cover the trampoline with a rain cover or store it in to extend its lifespan.
  • If you're installing a larger trampoline, such as the 12ft garden trampoline, make sure to re-check the netting regularly before using it.
