PT Standard Plank Bridge (8ft to 12ft)

PT Standard Plank Bridge (8ft to 12ft) The Pinnacle of Sturdiness and Symmetry When your landscape demands both maximum safety and a bold visual presence, the PT Standard Plank Bridge is the premier choice. Featuring two parallel handrails on each side, this bridge offers a more enclosed and secure feel, making it the "bridge of choice" for higher traffic areas or deep-water crossings. The double-rail design adds a layer of sophistication and traditional "park-style" charm to any property. Robust Engineering for Larger Spans Because these bridges are designed for longer spans (8ft to 12ft), we have increased the structural reinforcement to ensure they remain rigid and quiet underfoot. Dual Protection: Handrails on both sides offer bilateral support, providing security for all guests crossing the span. Superior Floorboards: These models utilize 2-inch thick boards to prevent sagging or "bouncing" over long distances. Increased Capacity: These bridges are built for heavy-duty use, supporting an increased weight capacity of 500 lbs. American Craftsmanship: Each unit is handcrafted in the USA from durable North American Pine and Cedar.
