Chat Frequently Asked Questions: Q: How many day use lockers does my club require? A: A good rule of thumb is to estimate the largest number of members who will use the facility at any given time and double that number. This allows for the "swing factor" (those members coming and going before and after peak usage). If you are designing a new facility, this estimated number needs to be determined by research and demand analysis as a part of sizing determination for the whole facility. Q: When planning a locker room what are the most important design factors to consider? A: The areas which deserve the most attention are: 1. Proper sizing of the locker room / and adequate quantities of lockers 2. Adequate air exchange rates (HVAC systems) 3. Traffic flow patterns 4. Proper lighting 5. Types of materials used on surfaces Q: What size should my lockers be? A: One answer is to let your space, membership numbers and budget dictate this, since attractive, spacious lockers can be a good selling tool. A majority of clubs use half lockers, ("B" frames) sometimes interspersing these with a full locker ("A" frame). If your facility is urban with lots of "suits and dresses" you may want to consider the "Z" frame. This style of locker takes up the same space as a half locker but allows size inches more vertical hanging space for longer suit coats, dresses and skirts. Q: What is the minimum space I can allow between rows of lockers? A: If you have two banks of lockers facing one another with a bench in the center, you need to allow a minimum of two feet between the bench edge and locker faces. Thirty to thirty six inches between the bench and locker faces is optimum. Without a bench, four feet between lockers is a bare minimum for a day use lockers, but is okay for "kit" lockers which a member rents for storage of shoes and personal care items. Q: How can I make locker rooms into profit centers? A: If you have the space and the right clientele, convenience "kit" lockers ("E" or "F" frame) can be profitably rented and show a return on investment. Beyond profit, this amenity can be another tool in membership sales and retention, which ultimately adds to that bottom line. |
