Regarding this, how high off the ground should a swing be? Swing Space Allow at least 3 to 4 feet of clearance in both the front and back of your swing and at least 2 feet on each side. As for how high to hang your swing, the seat should be approximately 17-19 inches above the floor.Additionally, is a 4×4 strong enough for a swing set? Yes, a 4×4 that is 20′ long will work. A 4×4 that is 12′ long will support about 4,000 lbs. The metal braces look strong enough, (those are fillet welds which will hold about 1,000 lbs. per inch), but the entire swing set will want to “parallelogram” on you (with enough force). Hereof, what are the dimensions of a swing set? First, we recommend selecting an appropriate space for the swing set. The playset plans for the Classic A-Frame specify a finished product that is about 12 feet wide, 8 feet tall and 8 feet deep. It should be installed on fairly level ground, and there should be about six feet of clearance from obstructions.What angle should swing set legs be?Use one bracket to attach a swing beam to your playset, or use two brackets to create a free-standing swing set! Bracket angle is 60 degrees. The spread between the legs based on beam height is approximately: 7 ft tall – 8 ft leg spread – leg lumber length 8′ *
