Abstract

A safety mat structure and associated securement assembly for providing open and closed positions for a climbing wall assembly. The safety mat securement assembly utilizes a plurality of security hand hold members each having latching means and a safety mat structure having bottom, top and side securement members. The security hand hold members may be used as hand holds on the climbing wall assembly and may have a locking structure. The bottom securement member functions to hold the safety mat to or near the bottom of a climbing wall assembly during both open and closed positions of the safety mat structure. The mat securement assembly is opened or unlocked by loosening the latching means, removing security mat top loop members from the hand hold, and placing the mats on the floor along the base of the climbing wall. When in the closed or locked position, the security mats may contain a printed message communicating that the climbing wall is closed and climbing should not take place. A top cover member may be provided to further secure the climbing wall. Safety mat cushioning structures and associated elements are further provided for use with climbing wall assemblies.
