Key Features
- 8-Note Bell Array: Produces bright, sustaining tones across an alto/soprano range - perfect for melodic play and exploration.
- Stainless Steel Note Material: Bell notes crafted from stainless steel for lasting durability and consistent tone in all weather conditions.
- Tonal Quality - Bright/Sustain: Rich, resonant sound that lingers after each strike, encouraging extended play and musical discovery.
- Dimensions - 12-1/4" Diameter x 66" H: Compact footprint with a striking vertical profile that serves as a visual landmark as well as an instrument.
- 2 Black Mallets Included: 80 durometer rubber mallets provide the ideal strike hardness for clear, bright bell tones.
- Multiple Mounting Options: Available in in-ground, surface mount, or portable configurations to suit a wide range of installation sites.
- Choice of Post Material: Select recycled plastic posts for eco-friendly sustainability or steel posts for maximum strength and a classic look.

- Age-Flexible Finished Height: Final installed height varies based on mounting, post style, and desired age group, allowing customization for different users.
Mount Type & Post Material Options - Which to Choose
- In-Ground Mount: The post is set directly into the ground for a permanent, fully anchored installation. Best for established parks, playgrounds, and public spaces where the instrument will stay in one location long-term. Offers the most stable and vandal-resistant setup.
- Surface Mount: Bolts to an existing concrete pad, deck, or hard surface. Ideal when ground excavation is not practical or when a clean, above-grade installation is preferred. Great for plazas, accessible pathways, and renovated play areas.
- Portable Mount: Designed for temporary or flexible placement without permanent installation. Perfect for events, sensory programs, classrooms, or facilities that want the option to relocate the instrument as needs change.
- Recycled Plastic Post: Made from recycled materials, this post option is environmentally responsible and highly resistant to rot, splinters, and corrosion. A great choice for eco-conscious facilities and coastal or high-moisture environments.
- Steel Post: Offers a strong, traditional aesthetic with excellent structural integrity. Well-suited for high-traffic public installations where maximum durability and a classic park appearance are priorities.

Manuals & Guides
FAQ
Is the Pagoda Bells suitable for all ages?
Yes! The Pagoda Bells is designed for users of all ages and abilities. The finished installation height can be adjusted based on the mounting option, post style, and the intended age group, making it accessible for young children as well as adults. It is a popular feature in inclusive playgrounds and sensory gardens.
Can the Pagoda Bells be left outside year-round?
Absolutely. The Pagoda Bells is purpose-built for permanent outdoor use. The stainless steel bell notes and weather-resistant construction are designed to handle rain, sun, wind, and temperature extremes without degrading in tone or appearance. It requires no seasonal storage or special weatherproofing.
What is the difference between the recycled plastic and steel post options?
Both post options are durable and suitable for outdoor use. The recycled plastic post is made from eco-friendly recycled materials and is naturally resistant to rot, splinters, moisture, and corrosion - ideal for environmentally conscious facilities or coastal/wet climates. The steel post offers a classic, industrial-strength appearance and excellent structural rigidity, making it well-suited for high-traffic public spaces where maximum strength is a priority.
Does the Pagoda Bells require professional installation?
Installation requirements vary by mount type. In-ground installations require post-hole digging and concrete setting, which is typically performed by a contractor or facilities crew. Surface mount installations require bolting to an existing concrete pad. The portable option is the simplest to deploy. Freenotes provides a detailed installation guide to assist with the process - see the downloadable resources on this page.
Do the mallets ever need to be replaced?
The included 80 durometer rubber mallets are built for long-term outdoor use, but like all mallet heads, they may eventually show wear with heavy use over time. Replacement mallets are available directly from Freenotes Harmony Park. We recommend checking mallet condition periodically as part of routine playground maintenance.
