# How to Fix a Bent Trampoline
Trampolines are made of four main components: springs, metal frame, safety pads and jumping mat. The metal frame is typically made of galanized steel for strength and durability. Galvanized steel is impossible for a typical homeowner to safely and reliably straighten out, so the best approach for a bent frame is to replace the part.
