At Forest House, we take pride in creating exceptional experiences for our members and when it came to outfitting our changing rooms, we wanted nothing but the best. That’s why we entrusted Safe Space Lockers with the task, with the confidence they would deliver on the founders’ vision of a retreat-style health club in the heart of Watford, UK. We couldn’t be happier with the results.

It was clear from the outset that we were dealing with a company that prioritises professionalism and efficiency – the ordering process was smooth and hassle-free and a team of experts guided us through every step.

They listened to our needs and provided solutions tailored to our unique requirements to ensure our vision for the changing rooms was realised.

The team understood the importance of design in creating a welcoming and functional changing room environment. They worked closely with our interior designers to create locker solutions that seamlessly blended with the overall aesthetic of Forest House. The attention to detail, flexibility in design options, and commitment to meeting our brand’s requirements were truly impressive.

The installation phase was executed with precision and professionalism.

Every locker was installed securely and efficiently, adhering to our strict timeline and the process was seamless, with minimal disruption to our club’s operations, allowing us to open our doors to members on schedule.

Our changing rooms have become more than just a place to store belongings; they are an extension of the Forest House experience.

Safe Space Lockers’ dedication to exceptional service and product quality aligns perfectly with our values. The company has played an integral role in bringing our vision to life, enhancing our member experience and ensuring every visit to Forest House is nothing short of exceptional.
