The sign on the frame and the status in the register must match
8.08.2023 г. · 1 мин четене
Tape without a status, or a status without tape, is how a member uses a machine you closed.
Pick one physical signal and use it every time: a hanger, a tape band in a known colour, a cone. The words on it should be the same words as the status. “Do not use” on the frame and “active” on the public page is a contradiction members will resolve in their own favour.
When you return a machine to service, remove the sign in the same visit as you change the status. A sign left on a working machine teaches people to ignore signs.
Night and unstaffed hours
If nobody is there to explain, the sign and the public page are the whole staff. They need to be readable without a login. “Ask reception” is not a status at midnight.
Do not use a scrap of paper that falls off. If the sign can be removed by a member who wants the machine, it will be. The status still has to be visible on the page they can scan.
A photo of the sign on the fault is a useful check that it was actually hung.

Tell a member the status, not the internal argument
The useful sentence is whether they can use it, and whether you already know. The part number is not for the floor.
Reset the rig to a known plan after class
A rig left as the last workout set it is a different machine. The closer puts it back and notes what broke.
Find the model and serial number on gym equipment
The model and serial are on a plate on the frame or inside the console bay. Photograph them. If the plate is gone, say so. Do not invent a number.
