Add a swing set to your backyard.

Three-seat swings provide a comfortable seating option for your deck, yard or patio. These swings require careful installation or the seat portion may fall off the top of the swing. Most of these swings can hold a weight of 500 to 700 pounds and are made of both fabric and metal. Check the instructions manual that comes with your swing set before assembling your swing. Improperly putting a swing together can result in injury.
