Room by room

The right blind for each zone

Reception, a mirrored studio, a pool-side room and a treatment room should not get the same blind. We fit each zone for what happens in it.

  1. 01

    Gym floor

    Screen fabric that takes the direct glare off equipment and screens while keeping the floor bright.

  2. 02

    Studios

    Dimming, blackout or privacy fabric depending on the classes held in the room, on controls an instructor can reach.

  3. 03

    Changing and treatment

    Privacy from outside and from corridors, with fabrics that stand up to ventilation and daily cleaning.

  4. 04

    Pool and humid areas

    Moisture-resistant materials and mechanisms, chosen before anything is shortlisted, so nothing corrodes or warps.

Procurement

Member comfort and maintenance, both covered

Tell us about opening hours, cleaning blocks and the wet and dry zones. We choose fabrics and mechanisms that suit each one and bring the evidence your operator or landlord asks for.

  1. 01

    Asbestos control

    The asbestos register is checked at induction before any drilling. Work stops if textured coatings, casings or other materials are unconfirmed.

Access and programme

We fit around classes and members

We use the timetable to find room groups we can work in, rather than asking for the whole centre to close.

  1. 01

    Zones

    Reception, gym floor, studios, changing, pool and staff rooms are taken as separate groups.

  2. 02

    Your timetable

    Tell us the classes, cleaning blocks and busiest member periods and we plan around them.

  3. 03

    Working area

    Barriers, equipment moves and which rooms stay open are agreed with the duty manager before we start.

  4. 04

    Reopening

    Each zone is checked and signed off before it goes back to members.

Questions for this setting

Before you send the brief

What helps with a pool-side enquiry?

Photographs, ventilation details and a clear note of which windows sit inside the humid zone help separate those openings from ordinary dry rooms.

Can studios be treated differently from the gym floor?

Yes. Tell us what happens in each studio and we spec it for that, whether it needs dimming, blackout, privacy or screen visibility.

Are the fabrics wipe clean and fire rated?

Screen and blackout fabrics from the Yewdale contract range are certified to BS 5867 Part 2 Type B, with the certificate supplied on every commercial order, and they wipe down as part of the cleaning routine.

Can you fit outside opening hours?

Yes. We work around your hours, supply RAMS before we start, and typically fit within 7 to 10 days of the survey.
