Storing covers
There will be times when you need to use your gym as a gym. Therefore, gym floor covers will be removed and stored until the next use. What is the best way to store them, such that they still keep their shape, color and cleanliness?
First of all, constantly folding a gym floor cover will lead to the formation of creases. Eventually, the cover will not lay flat and can lead to a hazardous situation during most events, especially dances or ceremonies. In order to prevent tripping in the future, your covers should be stored rolled up.
Secondly, when you fold a gym floor cover, you have no choice but to lift it and place it on a dolly or handcart. It is not completely safe and can impose several health hazards. If covers are folded, it is very hard to lift large sections – not many people can handle this much weight, so don’t make your staff do the backbreaking work.
Using a storage rack like the Ultima Series CoverMate II is the ideal way to keep your investment in excellent condition. It means your covers will be rolled up on separate rollers, not folded.
Storing CoverMate II rack
With all cover sections on their rollers, the CoverMate II storage system is easily wheeled into any convenient storage area, ready for the next event. Rack casters are specifically designed not to leave scratches on your floors and not to concentrate a lot of weight on the same wood slats.
Limited storage space? You can ask about our custom designs to meet your special needs. Usually, the standard size cover handling system fits into the most gym storage rooms.
Covermaster also offers a storage rack cover that goes on top of the rack with rolled up covers. Its purpose is to protect the covers and rack from dust and discourages unauthorized use.
You can store the Covermaster rack in exactly the same indoor conditions you use for you other gym equipment.
Storing accessories
The Ultima Series CoverMate II rack is the safest system available; nevertheless, it should be stored away from children.
Keep your accessories in a dry, clean place.
All of our covers have anti-fungal ingredients that will prevent the growth of mold and mildew. Covermaster gym floor covers pass all major fire retardancy tests.
Do not attempt to repair electrical tools, like the PowerMate power winder, yourself. Store your power winder in its original case.
