How Much Does an Outdoor Gym Cost?
If you’re considering installing an outdoor gym, one of the first questions you’ll ask is: how much does an outdoor gym cost? The answer depends on several factors, including the type of equipment, installation requirements, and additional safety measures.
In this blog, we’ll break down the costs involved in developing an outdoor gym to help you budget and plan effectively.
Cost of Outdoor Gym Equipment
- The price of outdoor gym equipment varies depending on the type and features. Here’s a general breakdown:
Classic Outdoor Gym Equipment: Most of our classic range of outdoor gym equipment costs approximately €1,000 per item. These machines mimic indoor gym equipment like walkers, chest presses, leg presses etc. - Premium Hydraulic & Electric Equipment: For those looking for adjustable resistance and digital features, premium hydraulic and electric equipment ranges from €2,500 to €3,000 per item.
- Calisthenics Equipment: Simple setups like pull-up bars start at €1,000, but if you’re looking for a large-scale calisthenics rig, the cost is unlimited, depending on the size of your area and budget.
Installation & Base Costs
In addition to the equipment itself, you’ll need a suitable foundation for your outdoor gym. Here’s what to consider:
- Concrete Base: A concrete base costs approximately €100 per square meter. The total price will depend on the size of your gym area. If you have some experience with groundworks you can certainly save here by doing this yourself or getting a local member of the community to volunteer their time and expertise!
- Delivery & Installation: The cost for delivery and installation of the equipment typically falls between €1,000 and €1,500, depending on the site location and the complexity of the installation.
