Design of an outdoor sports area

1. Understanding your needs

Each project starts with a detailed assessment of your courtyard, campus or available outdoor space. For schools and universities, we consider supervision or open access, user numbers and circulation, PE or university sports service (SUAPS) needs, and the relevant authority’s objectives. This helps us select equipment suited to your institution.

2. 3D design

We produce 3D plans and visuals to allow you to visualize the future sports space in your courtyard or on your campus. This step facilitates the validation of the project with the school management, the board of directors and the local community (region for high schools, university or CROUS for higher education), with a realistic rendering integrated into your environment.

Fitness with USB charging at the heart of the school

At the Louis-le-Grand high school in Paris, USB charging fitness devices are installed in the courtyard of the establishment. The installation combines cardio and muscle strengthening in a space directly accessible from the high school living areas.

The USB charging range combines physical activity and energy production: the effort allows you to recharge a mobile device. The project illustrates a concrete way of bringing outdoor fitness into daily school life, between classes and in addition to PE.

Frequently asked questions about our fitness equipment for high schools and universities

What are the benefits of an outdoor sports area for a high school or university?

An outdoor fitness space encourages increasingly sedentary pupils and students to exercise regularly outside PE and university sports sessions. Open access promotes spontaneous activity between classes, reduces time spent on screens or sitting still, and adds a shared activity to campus life. It also gives teaching teams and university sports departments more options for structured sessions without always relying on a sports hall or conventional sports grounds.

Is the equipment suitable for intensive use by school and university students?

Yes, our equipment for schools and universities is selected and sized for collective and repeated use, specific to this context: reinforced structures, anti-vandal finishes, resistance to daily use by numerous high school or university students, including continuous free access on a campus. Compliant with the EN16630 standard, they include the safety zones and devices required for independent use, without constant supervision.

Can the equipment support PE lessons or university sports sessions?

Perfectly. Our outdoor fitness and street workout equipment is compatible with numerous sequences of the high school PE program and with the slots of the university physical and sports activities service (SUAPS): general strength and conditioning, body weight training, circuit training, endurance work. Cross training station, multi-height pull-up bars, rowing machine, cross trainer: each device can be integrated by PE teachers or SUAPS supervisors in a structured sequence, in addition to free use outside of classes.

How much does it cost to install a sports area for a high school or university?

The budget varies depending on the number of units, the surface area available in the courtyard or on the campus and any development work (flooring, fencing, lighting). At Herkules Fitness, we offer modular solutions adapted to the budgetary constraints of regions, universities or CROUS. Each project is the subject of a personalized study and a detailed estimate, usable within the framework of a public contract. Contact us to obtain a tailor-made estimate.

Can the layout be adapted to the site?

Yes. We assess the available space, circulation, student numbers and your educational or campus-life objectives. A personalised 3D design helps us select equipment and optimise the layout for your institution. Hard-surfaced courtyards, existing sports grounds, campus lawns or areas beside student residences: our designs adapt to different school and university settings.

Does the equipment require a lot of maintenance?

No, our equipment is designed to require a minimum of maintenance despite intensive use. The stainless steel and galvanized steel structures resist bad weather and daily use by many high school and university students, with controlled maintenance costs. A regular visual inspection by the technical services and an annual technical inspection in compliance with EN16630 are sufficient to guarantee the safety of users.

What materials are used and how durable are they?

Our equipment is made of stainless steel and galvanized steel, with reinforced anti-vandalism finishes, particularly suited to the school and university context, including unsupervised free access on a campus. These materials guarantee excellent resistance to bad weather, shocks and intensive collective use, without heavy maintenance. Each installation benefits from a 10-year warranty on the structures.

Does Herkules Fitness operate throughout France, including regional and university procurement projects?

Yes, we support high schools, universities and their local communities throughout France thanks to our national network of certified installers. We regularly respond to public contracts from Regional Councils, in charge of the construction and maintenance of high schools, as well as consultations with universities and CROUS, with the technical files and CCTP necessary for this type of procedure.

What is the time between order and installation?

On average, allow between 6 and 8 weeks between validation of the order and commissioning. Our teams support you at every stage to respect the announced deadlines and favor installation during school or university holidays (All Saints' Day, winter, summer) in order to limit any disruption to the establishment.

Do you provide the technical documents necessary for the installation file and the public contract?

Yes, we provide all the required documents: 3D plans and visuals, product technical sheets, EN16630 certificates of conformity, CCTP if required as part of a regional or university public contract, and documents for the establishment's insurance. Our teams support you in the complete creation of your administrative and technical file.

Do you provide after-sales service and long-term support?

Yes, Herkules Fitness provides responsive after-sales service and lasting follow-up for all its installations. After setting up your sports area, we remain available to meet your needs: technical assistance, replacement of parts and maintenance advice. Our galvanized steel equipment is designed to limit interventions, but our team takes care to guarantee their long-term performance and safety, an essential condition for intensive school and university use.
