Counter-Sunk Hole
Through Hole
This page is a list of definitions and explanations used throughout our
instructions to aid you in the assembly of your play set.
Offset Holes
- Throughout the installation procedures we will refer to parts with offset
holes. This refers to the orientation of the holes on the board. An offset hole is one that
is closer to one side than it is the other or in other words, it is not centered on the board.
In the procedures you will be instructed to attach the boards with the holes offset up or
with the holes offset down. This refers to which side of the board the hole/holes should
be closer to. Offset holes up= hole/holes will be closer to the top of the board. Offset
holes down= hole/holes will be closer to the bottom of the board. Note: some parts do
not have offset holes, but instead the holes are on center. Therefore there will not be
any reference on how to offset these parts.

Counter-sunk holes
- Many of the parts that will be used have counter-sunk holes. A
counter-sunk hole is one that surrounds one side of a through hole, but does not extend
through the wood it’s self. When using a counter-sunk hole the bolt will be inserted
through the through hole and either the head of the bolt and washer or nut and washer
will occupy the counter sunk hole.
Lag Screws
- Lag screws are used in the construction of our play sets to enhance
the structural integrity of the unit. There will not be predrilled holes in the post for lag
screw installation. Lag screws are self-tapping, though if you are using a manual socket
wrench it may be advantageous to pre-drill a hole first. Instructions for this are provided
on a separate page in the front of the manual. Be sure to tighten the lags completely
when driving them in by hand. Power tools such as a heavy duty impact driver or large
power drill should have enough torque to drive in the lag screws, but make sure not to
over tighten as this can cause the threads to “strip out” in the post.
