Whether building a new fitness facility or refurbishing an existing space, there are important elements to consider when designing a gym amenity that will inspire and motivate people to workout and do it consistently.
Our team at Comm-Fit has the experience and expertise to help you design a fitness amenity that adds value to your property while promoting health and wellness in your community. Here are 5 things to consider when designing your commercial fitness facility:
1. Who and How Many People Will Be Using the Fitness Facility?
Your sales partner will use this to determine what kind of commercial gym equipment to recommend, how many pieces of fitness equipment are needed to meet the needs of the users, and what the best mix of cardio, strength, free weights, interactive and on-demand content will be to achieve your goals.
2. How Much Space Is Available or Needed to Achieve Your Specific Fitness Amenity Goal Or Vision?
Whether at the conceptual stage or remodeling, we’ll work with you to ensure the facility has enough space and the appropriate layout to accommodate equipment and people. Our team of fitness facility experts specialize in commercial gym design and layout that focuses on maximizing the use and space of any fitness amenity.
3. What Type of Gym Flooring, Fixtures and Finishes Should Be Used When Designing A Commercial Fitness Facility?
We conduct on-site surveys and moisture tests, where required, to determine the best suited athletic sports flooring for your facility, and to guarantee the durability and longevity of your flooring for years to come. We’ll also help guide you to the ideal fixtures and finished that are best suited for fitness amenities, as well as acoustics, easy-to-clean surfaces, and lighting to make the facility inviting and sanitary.
4. What Are the ADA Fitness Guidelines for Commercial Gym Design?
Through years of experience and thousands of fitness amenity installations, the Comm-Fit team understands ADA requirements and the impact that doors and pillars in a fitness facility can have on the amount and placement of fitness equipment.
