Malvern Playden Playhouse
Product Details
The Malvern Playden is the smallest playhouse in the range and is best suited to young children. It has all of the safety features incorporated in the larger models including ledged doors with piano style hinges which leave a gap when shut to prevent trapped fingers. The Malvern Playden is sturdily constructed with 33mm x 33mm Deal framework. 12mm tongued and grooved cladding is used in the walls and roof while the floor is also solid timber rather than chipboard.

The Playden 6ft x 4ft
This is the smallest of our playhouses but still has all the safety features you should expect in a child's playhouse. Two longline windows provide plenty of light and enable you to keep an eye on the kids while they are playing.
In common with the other playhouses in our range, the Playden is available with red, green or plain highlights.
Finger Guard
Each of the Malvern playhouses features a stable door which kids just love to play with. However, we don't want them to get their fingers trapped so there is a substantial gap between the two doors covered by a rubber weatherseal.
Piano Hinges
The stable doors on Malvern playhouses are hinged with one-piece piano hinges and the rear edge of the door is cut at 30 degrees This ensures that, when shut, there is no risk of little fingers getting caught in the back of the door.
Magnetic catches
Safety inspectors insisted that Malvern playhouse doors were fitted with magnetic catches so that all a child has to do to get out is push rather than turn a handle or knob. We took their advice as you would expect! The door has a neat circular handle on the outside which is easy for small children to grasp.
Rounded framework
The 43mm x 33mm framework used in the Malvern playhouse range is sanded to a smooth finish to prevent splinters. Shown here where the sides meet the roof, you'll see that the roof is made from real timber rather than chipboard or pressed fibre board. This has important benefits if damp somehow gets into the roof at a later date since real timber won't swell and disintegrate.
Deal ( pine ) cladding
Our playhouses are constructed with Deal ( Pine ) tongued and grooved cladding. The surface of this is planed smooth and each board fits neatly into the next. Before the building leaves the factory each panel is given a wash of a quality wood preservative which protects it against rot and insect attack. The process allows the preservative to get between the boards and into the end grain of the timber ensuring that all surfaces are coated.
Rounded bargeboards and acrylic plastic windows
The bargeboards on the Malvern playhouse range are neatly rounded for safety. The windows are glazed with acrylic plastic. Pictured here on The Lodge, the principle is exactly the same with the Playden.
You may think this rather elementary but compare our buildings with other manufacturers' buildings and you'll see how much better thought out they are.
