Measurement Guide

Getting the right fit is essential for both safety and appearance. Here's how to accurately measure your posts before ordering padding:

Measuring Round Posts:

  1. Use a tape measure to find the circumference of your post (wrap it around the post).

  2. Divide the circumference by 3.14 (π) to calculate the diameter.

  3. Match the diameter to our internal pad dimensions.

Measuring Square or Rectangular Posts:

  1. Measure the width of each side of the post.

  2. Choose a pad that matches or slightly exceeds those dimensions for a snug fit.

Choosing the Right Size

We offer a wide range of standard sizes. Here's how to match your measurements to the correct pad:

  • If your round post diameter is 11cm, choose our 10 x 10cm internal dimension pad.

  • If your diameter is 14cm, our 15 x 15cm pad is the ideal choice.

  • For a rectangular post measuring 20cm x 9cm, our 20 x 10cm pad will fit perfectly.

Tip: Square post pads can also fit round poles! See how One Global School in Maitland upgraded their playground with our safety padding.
