Our experienced carpenters and skilled designers take great pride in creating top-quality pre-built models and DIY kits of playhouses, storage sheds, and personal chapels.

Play Mor Swing Sets began in 1992 as a three-man team operating in a 1,920 square foot facility during the summer months. Paul Hershberger had a vision of creating a line of wooden outdoor playsets to sell to retailers that were already selling other lawn furniture from his community. He liked the idea of creating a product line that would encourage families to spend more time together at home. Today Paul’s dream has become a reality. Play Mor Swing Sets now has 17 year-round employees working in a modern facility more than 39,000 square feet. Along with the growth of the business has come progress in design and shipping. Originally the towers were prebuilt and shipped fully assembled. This often caused problems in transportation and backyard access. In order to solve these problems the product was modified. Today Play Mor’s wooden, option-friendly playsets are sold as prefabricated kits complete with hardware and installation instructions. All kits are banded into stackable units which make them easy to ship. Production has also changed over the years. The early days saw a limited line of wooden outdoor playset styles and accessories produced to fill customer orders. As demand increased long wait times began to be a problem. Paul and his employee team again came up with a solution. They began to use the winter months to amass a large inventory in order to be well prepared for the busy season each year. This method of keeping every item in stock has worked very well. Although the product line has increased to over 15 playset styles and a wide array of attachments and accessories, wait times have been drastically reduced. Today the turnaround time for most of their wooden outdoor playsets is usually well within two weeks. These advances over the years have greatly increased the appeal of Play Mor’s wooden swingsets to both dealers and customers alike. Play Mor Swing Sets remains committed to the goal of adapting to the changing needs of its dealers and customers in the future just as they have in the past. For more than a decade now Play Mor Swing Set’s skilled local craftsmen have been turning high quality lumber into attractive option-friendly playsets. They employ dependable, committed workers who not only oversee the production of current swingsets, but also furnish ideas for new playsets and methods of production. Paul says that his business truly has turned into a team effort. He credits his workmen for taking his original ideas way beyond what he could have done on his own. Another integral part of the growth of the business has been the helpful advice of the dealers through which most of the swingsets are sold and installed. Their helpful feedback has often improved current products and provided ideas for new ones.
