3D Gym Layout Planner

Plan a gym, fitness studio or CrossFit box in 3D. Set the floor size, lay out cardio rows, racks, benches, turf and stretching zones, and add reception and lockers. Choose rubber flooring and mirror walls, then check equipment count, zone areas, members per hour and an indicative fit-out cost.

This is a planning aid. Equipment sizes are typical, capacity uses a 40–50 sq ft per member rule of thumb, and costs are indicative Delhi NCR ranges excluding equipment, HVAC and GST. Floor loading, fire exits and licences depend on your building, so confirm them with a structural engineer and the authorities. A site survey is needed for a final design.

Good to know

Planning a gym members stay in

Size the floor for peak hour

A common rule of thumb is 40–50 sq ft of training floor per member working out at the same time. A 2,000 sq ft gym with a small front desk can handle about 35–45 members at peak. Crowding between 6–9 am and 6–9 pm is the main reason members stop coming.

Give cardio its clearances

Equipment makers usually ask for about 1.5–2 ft between machines and around 6.5 ft clear behind each treadmill, so a fall does not end against a wall or another machine. Face cardio rows towards windows, screens or a mirror wall, and plan a power point for every machine.

Zone the heavy stuff

Keep racks and free weights on 30–40 mm rubber or platforms, away from cardio, with full-height mirrors and good sightlines for trainers. On upper floors, get the slab loading checked by a structural engineer before you place heavy racks and plate storage.

Talk to a designer

How is members per hour worked out?

The planner takes the floor area, subtracts reception, lockers and changing rooms, and divides the training floor by 40–50 sq ft per active member. With typical one-hour sessions, that is roughly how many members can train in your busiest hour. It is a rule of thumb, not a licensed occupancy figure.

What does the narrowest clearance check?

It measures the clear gap between pieces of equipment that sit side by side or face each other. Anything under 2 ft is marked in red in the 3D view. Turf and stretching areas are left out, because people walk on them. Leave more room behind treadmills than the check asks for.

How much does a gym fit-out cost in Delhi NCR?

The planner uses ₹1,200–1,800 per sq ft for an essential fit-out, ₹1,800–2,800 for premium and ₹2,800–4,500+ for luxury, adjusted for your city. Gym equipment, HVAC upgrades, structural strengthening and GST are extra. Steam rooms, saunas and premium lounges push a project towards the luxury band. We share an itemised BOQ after the concept.

Which rubber flooring should I choose?

Speckled rubber rolls of 8–15 mm suit cardio and general areas. Interlocking rubber tiles of 20–40 mm are better under free weights and racks because they absorb drops and are easy to replace. Black hides marks best, while coloured flecks lift a dark floor and can match your brand.

Where should mirrors go?

Put full-height mirrors on walls facing the free-weight and stretching areas, so members can check their form. Avoid mirrors directly behind treadmills, where they can distract or dazzle. Start them about 1 ft above the floor so rubber flooring and dropped weights do not crack them.

Can I save and share my gym layout?

Yes. Save keeps the layout in this browser and Load brings it back. Save image downloads a picture of the 3D view or plan. Sending the form shares your summary with Panache Design Studio, and a designer will call to turn it into drawings, a 3D render and an itemised quote.
