Custom Gyms Fitout
At Custom Gyms Ltd, we take pride in delivering gym spaces that are functional, durable, and tailored to our clients’ exact needs. Our project with Kilkenny Rugby Football Club was a perfect example of that process in action — upgrading an existing gym into a high-performance training facility for athletes of all levels.
Step 1: Layout Optimisation
We began by working closely with the Kilkenny RFC coaching team to understand their training goals. The layout was designed for rugby-specific performance — allowing smooth movement between lifting zones, conditioning areas, and recovery spaces, while maximising the available floor space.
Step 2: Equipment Selection & Planning
We handpicked a range of equipment to deliver maximum versatility and durability for team training:
Wall-mounted racks for strength work without taking up excess floor space
Adjustable benches for a variety of upper and lower body exercises
Wall-mounted bumper plate storage to keep the training area organised and safe
Universal storage trolley for easy movement of smaller equipment
Hex dumbbells for strength and accessory training
Kettlebells for power, conditioning, and functional movement work

Step 3: EQUIPMENT REMOVAL & FITOUT
Our installation team assembled and securely installed the wall-mounted racks, adjustable benches, bumper plate storage units, and universal storage trolley. Every item was positioned according to the agreed layout to ensure optimal functionality and a clean, organised training space.
Step 4: Final Inspection & Handover
Before handover, we carried out a full inspection — testing all equipment, checking fittings, and reviewing the safety of the layout. Once approved, the new gym was officially handed over to Kilkenny RFC, ready for action.
