        Revamp Your Gym for 2023

        Create your gym’s identity for 2023 and start the year strong with an increase in revenue and memberships through Hollman renovations.

        In the past 2 years, the pandemic has caused people to re-prioritized their health and wellness. As the world continues to go back to normalcy, gyms have continued to flourish with an increase in retention and new memberships. Gym owners must now compete for memberships through competitive pricing, exceptional equipment options and an atmosphere that attracts to users. 

        BRANDING YOUR GYM

        AESTHETIC:

        When designing your space, color and décor must be intentional to help build an ambiance for users. Color choices can define a space’s energy – from formal and casual to, sophisticated and urban. Art and design help the mind concentrate; consider adding pieces to your space or custom vinyl art to elevate the room and create an eye-catching space.

        For Modern designs: Use natural colors, wood, and other elements found in outside. Natural lights, open spaces, and plants can elevate the design, creating a more natural appeal for members that love the outdoors.

        For Contemporary designs: Use monochromatic colors such as grey and bold color statements such as branding pieces, art, or even lockers. Contemporary design can have an urban feel with textured materials or metal included in the design, color is used as an intentional contrast.

        INCREASE SECURITY:

        Security is not a new topic for gym owners; it’s a concern that impacts all employees and members. No matter what type of facility you have, security should be a top priority when it comes to the gym’s design. Give your members and employees the peace of mind that comes with trusted security.

        Hollman carries some of the world’s leading lock products, guaranteed to protect in any environment. From manual locks to smart lock integration, we have solutions that accommodate all settings and user activity

        ADD AMENITIES:

        It’s all about amenities. When it comes down to it, many gyms are similar in the equipment carried, the members they attract, and the type of environment. What really sets two gyms apart is the amenities provided for members; having extra add-ons will increase member retention, provide convenience for users, and give a reason for members to choose your locations over others.

        LAYOUT/SPACE:

        From open layouts to foyers, a gym’s design ultimately affects how each member uses the space. Whether you carry classes or are an open-space gym, it is important to provide members with enough space to comfortably work out.

        Locker room layouts are equally as important. Security and privacy are a primary focus when it comes to the design of the space; it is also important to note the flow of the space matters as well. The layout of the lockers, showers, and additional amenities should be laid out for convenience and well directed. 

        For renovations, Hollman can assist with design layout to create the ideal set up as well as work with your current conditions to retrofit your locker room. 

        ENVIRONMENTAL INITIATIVES:
