Made by a father and school teacher

“I designed these steel corner supports for pits I'd want my own kids to play in, and for a kit your own team can build in most of a day.”

I cut, fold and punch every corner support in Victoria, and I wrote the instructions and timber list for the people who build these: school maintenance staff and local tradespeople. Questions before you order? Email stewart@gagapitkits.com.au and I will reply personally.

Quick answers

Straight answers before you buy.

Which size suits your space?

A patch about 9 m square suits it well: the pit is roughly 5.8 m across, with room to walk around it. See the size and total cost for your space →

Who builds it, and how long does it take?

Two people, most of a day. Most schools already have someone handy in maintenance, and the kit makes the build simple. Printed instructions and a timber shopping list come in the box.

Can we buy by purchase order?

Yes. Raise your PO from this quote. Once it’s approved, tap ‘PO approved? Get your invoice’ and enter the PO number. Your invoice is dated that day, on 30-day terms. Card and bank transfer work too.

When will it ship?

In 1–2 days, with tracking. Delivery is free Australia-wide.

What goes under and inside it?

Grass, mulch, gravel or turf all work, and no concrete slab is needed. Our base guide shows what to put under and inside it.
