How do you get started?
We work with fitness and health facility owners and managers to design locker room layouts that make the best use of space, convenience, and cleanliness. How a locker room is designed varies by the size of your facility and the activities offered, from training with weights to boxing and yoga instruction. Small clusters of lockers with adequate space between them to navigate can create a safer environment. Each configuration provides:
- Custom dimensions to organize personalized items for staff and members.
- Durable finishes branded with your business name, logo, and colors.
- Smart locker systems with touchless controls, space-saving designs, greater ventilation, better security, and lower maintenance costs.
Over the last year or so, lockers have integrated outlets for charging devices as well as better security features to protect them. Modular smart lockers let you reconfigure them in the most effective way. Temporarily remove lockers to distance users and replace them again later. With castors, you can move then inside or outside as needed.
