Buying notes for the Double decker carousel for sale
A double decker carousel for sale is bought for one reason: it puts twice the riders on ground that a single platform would already use. The trade is vertical. A two-level ride stands 9.8 metro a 11.5 m alto, needs a crane on site and ships in three or four containers instead of one, and in return it gives a park the skyline piece a flat carousel cannot be.
This page covers what your site has to clear, how the 38 and 48-seat builds differ on the inside, and how the queue, the shipping and the install actually work. El rango de carrusel lists both two-level builds beside the single-deck platforms if you are still weighing the shape of the ride.
Double decker or 2 carrusel de historias: what the model name must confirm
“Double decker carousel”, “two-story carousel” and “2 storey merry go round” describe the same two-level ride format. The useful comparison is not the label; it is the platform diameter, altura del equipo, altura de funcionamiento, staircase and the number of riders in the final figure-and-carriage mix.
| Item to freeze | 38-seat build | 48-seat build |
|---|---|---|
| Diámetro de giro | 7.4 metro | 10 metro; 14 m including the guardrail envelope |
| Altura del equipo | 9.8 metro | 11.5 metro |
| Altura de funcionamiento | 5.1 metro | 4 metro |
| Drive and rotation | 11 kilovatios; 5.5 kW por cubierta; 5 rpm | 6 kilovatios; 7.8 kW instalados; 3 rpm |
| Seat-count meaning | Total passenger capacity across horses and carriages, not 38 caballos | Mixed horses, carruajes, balloons and bus cabins add up to 48 passenger places |
| Envío | 3 × 40HQ + 1 × 20GP, acerca de 18,800 kg | 3 × 40HQ, acerca de 21,000 kg |
Do not compare a “38-seat” quotation with a figure count alone. Ask for the approved seat schedule, the staircase width, the upper-deck railing and the final foundation drawing. Those items decide whether the ride can be boarded and inspected as efficiently as the platform capacity suggests.
What your site has to clear before a two-level carousel ships
A two-level carousel is decided by clearances rather than by taste. These five numbers are the ones that stop projects, and all of them are cheaper to confirm before the order than after it.
If the ride is going under a roof, the clear height is the whole brief: a two-level carousel needs its equipment height plus working room under the beams. Most shopping centres cannot release that, so compare the carrusel interior range first. Outdoors the constraint is usually the crane position and the turning circle for delivery vehicles rather than the platform itself.
Carrusel de dos pisos en venta: 38 o 48 asientos
Two builds cover the range, and they are engineered differently rather than being the same ride at two sizes.
38-asiento de dos pisos
48-asiento de dos pisos
The 38-seat ride slews on a 7.4 m diameter and rotates at 5 rpm, con 5.5 kW on each deck. It is the two-level carousel for a park that has height but not width, and its operating height of 5.1 m keeps the upper deck in view across the whole site. The 48-seat ride makes the opposite trade: a 10 m slewing diameter, 14 m with the guardrail, 3 rpm and a lower operating height of 4 metro, with cabins spread across horses, carruajes, balloons and bus cabins. Where a park wants capacity and a landmark in one structure, this is the build. We built one for a park in Korea; the project notes show the model, the delivery and the opening date.

Where a single deck already meets your throughput, el gran tiovivo page compares both shapes from 36 riders up.
38 o 48 asientos: throughput and guest flow before price
A larger seat count does not automatically create a proportionally larger hourly flow. Use the actual ride cycle, boarding time, unloading time and occupancy in the same formula: riders per hour = seats × 60 ÷ cycle minutes × realistic occupancy.
| Modelo | Riders at 3-minute cycle | Cifra de planificación en 65% occupancy | Mejor ajuste |
|---|---|---|---|
| 38-asiento de dos pisos | 760 per hour at full occupancy | Acerca de 494 per hour | A constrained plot that needs a strong vertical landmark |
| 48-asiento de dos pisos | 960 per hour at full occupancy | Acerca de 624 per hour | A park gate, main plaza or high-footfall evening position |
The 3-minute cycle is a comparison assumption, not a guaranteed cycle time. Replace it with the final loading procedure. If two boarding staff can turn the ride faster, the larger platform earns more; if one staircase and one gate create a bottleneck, the difference between 38 y 48 riders narrows at the ticket desk.
Check the exit route and photograph point separately from the boarding queue. A two-level carousel attracts a crowd even when visitors are not riding, so keep the photo zone outside the fence line and the service access clear of the waiting queue.
Piso, figures and the finish you can choose
Four decisions carry the look of a two-level carousel, and all four are made at the drawing stage.
Wood or aluminium
Two floor options: 10 mm anti-corrosion wood, which suits a vintage build, o 1.5 mm aluminium checkered plate for a classic or animal theme.
caballos, carriages and cabins
European or classic horses, animal figures such as rabbit, tigre, giraffe and lion, plus carriages and cabins where two riders sit together.
Theme decided at the drawing
Vintage, Navidad, europeo, ocean with coral cornices and sea-life seats, or a cartoon direction. The canopy, cornice and lighting follow the same theme.
Logo, park name and colours
Your logo or park name can be built into the canopy decoration, and the colour scheme is matched to the surrounding area.
Under the decoration it is the same build we use across the range: FRP for the horse bodies, the cornice and the platform perimeter, with a PVC top surface to keep water out. Fibreglass and resin are laid layer by layer in our own FRP workshop, the parts are polished, then putty and varnish go on before the paint is applied in a bake-paint booth of the type used for cars. That is what keeps a two-level ride flat and glossy after a season outdoors.
Two decks, one ticket: how the queue works
Boarding is where a two-level carousel is won or lost. The staircase to the upper deck is part of the structure, and it is sized for the queue rather than for one rider at a time.
- The upper deck carries its own railing, so parents can stand with younger riders at the top instead of sending them up alone
- Two configurations are available: figures spread evenly across both decks, or fewer figures upstairs so the upper level reads as a viewing deck with a longer view
- One ticket point serves both decks, and the answer to a queue that does not move is a second boarding point rather than more seats
- Supervision matches a single-deck ride, with one extra rule: the staircase stays clear while the ride turns
Shipping and installing a two-story carousel
A two-level carousel is a project rather than a delivery. The sequence is fixed, and the container plan is issued with the order so your site team can book the crane against it.
- Base and lifting plan
The base is cast to our drawing and signed off before shipment, and the crane position is agreed at the same time – the heaviest section decides the crane, not the finished ride.
- Unload and stage
Three or four containers arrive and the sections are staged in the order they will be lifted. Staging is what keeps a two-level assembly inside the planned days.
- Assemble the decks
Centre base, track and turntable first, then the lower deck, the staircase, the upper deck and the canopy. The electrical work follows the deck it serves, so the lower level is tested before the top is closed.
- Figuras, test run and handover
Figuras, carriages and lighting are fitted, the ride is run through a full cycle, and the manual, spare list and inspection records are handed over while your team is still on site.
Shipping weight runs from about 18,800 kg on the 38-seat build to 21,000 kg on the 48-seat one. Ask for the packing list with the layout drawing and you can price the trucking and the crane before you sign rather than after.

Outdoor operation: base, weather and inspection planning
A two-level carousel presents more height and more exposed surface than a single-deck ride. The final site package must connect the foundation, anchoring, drenaje, electrical protection, staircase and upper-deck railing into one approved drawing.
Loads from the real configuration
Use the final 38 or 48-seat drawing. The heaviest shipment section, anchor layout, plinth level and drainage detail set the civil work and crane plan.
Shutdown rules before opening
Agree wind limits, storm checks, water drainage and the post-storm inspection route in the operating procedure. Decorative parts must remain accessible for tightening and replacement.
Two decks, one protected system
Confirm isolators, rutas de cable, cabinet position, lighting circuits and emergency stop locations before the lower deck is closed.
Access above the crowd
The staircase, railings, lamp housings and figure fixings need a safe inspection route. Include the upper-deck checks in the daily and periodic maintenance schedule.
What the double decker quotation must include
The factory price band covers the selected ride and standard package, not a complete installed project. Compare quotations by the following lines so a lower headline figure does not hide scope.
| Alcance | Verify before signing |
|---|---|
| Ride package | 38 o 48 asientos, plataforma, conducir, figuras, carruajes, pabellón, cornisa, lighting and floor. |
| Two-level safety | Staircase, upper-deck railings, gates, emergency access, signs, restraint scope and the final seat schedule. |
| trabajo de fábrica | Asamblea, ejecución de prueba, registros de inspección, manual de operación, spare-parts list and paint codes. |
| Transporte | Recuento de contenedores, peso total, punto de carga, puerto, unloading and site-access restrictions. |
| Trabajo del sitio | Base, anclas, drenaje, conexión de alimentación, grúa, supervisión de instalación y puesta en marcha. |
| Customisation | Custom figures, theme direction, obra de arte, branding and whether new moulds are required. |
The current reference bands are from US$105,000 for the 38-seat build and US$115,000 for the 48-seat build. Transporte, cimientos, grúa, local electrical work and any special figures or theme package can move the landed budget beyond that band.
