Follow all manufacturers’ instructions found in the general installation guide / manual.
Begin by removing any foreign debris from the area.
- Dig out the area (5” deep) that you want to install our products in.
- Tamp area level, ready for 1st layer of fabric / mesh.
- Install your first layer of fabric / mesh overlapping the area by 6” (inches).
- Add the board units as required, usually concrete, asphalt, wood, plastic or rubber)
- Add recycled crushed stones, RCA, stone blend, item-4 or stone dust within your boarded area. If you are installing our 2 ¼” thick rubber tiles-mats-blocks, you want your compacted are to sit 2 ¼” (inches) below grade, so the top of our finished products meet the top of your finished boarder so there is no tripping hazard on or off the area. Again, it is not required, but recommended.
- Compact area level using a vibration machine. MAKE SURE ALL WAVES, HILLS AND VALLIES ARE REMOVED. Sand or a fine powder may be needed to fill such voids.
- Roll out your second layer of fabric / mesh and cut to fit accordingly.
- Slits are cut where fabric will go around playground posts or objects.
- Fabric is put in place and stapled to the side of your boarder.
- Unity’s tiles-mats-blocks can now be installed according to our manufactured specified installation guide / manual.

For ROOFTOP installations:
Sometimes the fabric / mesh is installed prior to our tiles-mats-block being installed on rooftops. This is a matter of individual preference on smaller, residential applications, 300 sq. ft. or less. To install fabric in this manner, follow these steps: Remove any foreign debris to the bare roof by sweeping or blowing the area clean. Make sure all debris is free in, and around, rooftop drains. Apply the fabric / mesh by rolling out a single row. At the same time, begin installing Unity’s tiles-mats-blocks, following all manufacturers instructions found in the general installation guide / manual. Apply second row of fabric / mesh overlapping the first row by 6” (inches) and continue to install our tiles-mats-blocks as you go. Don’t forget to: Cut a hole where playground equipment posts or other objects will go. It is always recommended to cut around all drains for easier access when maintenance is required. |
