ACCT-certified inspections to keep your course safe, compliant, and running.
INSPECTIONS
We service parks we didn't build.
If you own an existing course — regardless of who built it — we can inspect it, repair it, and train your staff.
Adventure Designs offers professional inspection services for all types of adventure and challenge course elements. As an ACCT Professional Vendor Member, we are qualified to inspect Low and High Challenge Courses, Ziplines and Zipline Tours, Aerial Adventure Parks, and Climbing Walls.
Both ACCT and ASTM standards require an annual inspection by a qualified professional. We visit your site at a time convenient to you and perform an unhurried, thorough, hands-on examination. We take time to listen to your concerns, answer questions, and ensure we fully understand the scope before we begin. We inspect domestically and internationally — including courses in Central America.
