Equipment Tracking & Maintenance: Keep Your Floor Running
A broken machine quietly costs you members. Fitbord now tracks every piece of equipment, schedules maintenance before things fail, and turns member complaints into work orders, with a technician report flow that needs no login.

An out-of-order treadmill is more than an inconvenience. Members notice, they train less, and quietly they start looking elsewhere. Yet most spaces track their equipment on a whiteboard, a spreadsheet, or nowhere at all. Fitbord now gives you a proper system for it.
A register for every machine
Add each piece of equipment with a photo, brand, model, serial number, location, and purchase date. Every machine carries a clear status so anyone on your team knows what is usable at a glance:
- Operational: ready for members
- In maintenance: being serviced right now
- Out of service: flagged, awaiting repair
- Retired: removed from the floor for good
Maintenance before the breakdown
Set a maintenance interval per machine and Fitbord computes the next due date for you. When a machine is coming due, it surfaces automatically, and every morning a reminder goes out to the space owner so nothing is forgotten.
Automatic due-date reminders
Fitbord checks maintenance schedules every day and emails the space owner what needs attention, preventive, not reactive.
Service records that tell the whole story
Log every intervention as a scheduled service or a repair. Capture the cost, the parts replaced, who performed it, and detailed notes. Each machine keeps its full maintenance history, so you can see what a piece of equipment has really cost you over its life.
Let technicians report without an account
When you send a machine out for repair, share a secure link with the technician. They open a simple report page, fill in what they did, the parts, and the cost, and submit it straight back into Fitbord. No account, no app, no friction.
Turn member complaints into work orders
Members can flag faulty equipment directly from the portal, linked to the exact machine. A complaint stops being a note lost in a group chat and becomes a tracked item you can act on.
Stop losing members to broken gear
Track, service, and repair every machine on your floor from one place.
