When you lay the track down how level does my concrete need to be?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Yes, we would love your concrete to be level, but the reality is that I’ve walked over 2,000 spots, and maybe two studios were on level concrete. The great news is that more and more contractors and new dealerships are getting level concrete because they’re asking for our specs. If you ever need it, give us an email, Jay@360Booth®.com.

As far as the concrete level, if you have a 30-35 foot run, and it’s greater than a slope of three inches, we’re going to have to dream something up; but if it’s less than two or three inches, we can shim it level, and the installation goes smooth.

Yes, we need your concrete level, but we can correct it if it needs some leveling.

 

What type of Maintenance daily, weekly or monthly is required for Studio?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

You’re looking at 360Booth®, and you’re concerned about maintenance. There is none. The V-groove, precision-grooved wheels need no oiling. The track needs no lubrication. The LED lights last 50,000 hours. I’ve warrantied the entire structure for five years. If anything fails, we’ll replace it.

For daily maintenance, especially if you have Swisstrax, I would love for you guys, for a Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, wipe it down with some clean water and a mop.

For your stubborn stains–and we didn’t clean our booth purposely so you could see the tracks in it, see the tracks? A little degreaser and a deck brush does the job. All you simply do is spray down your degreaser and give it some elbow grease.

We can send you a very detailed email list of equipment needed and a video on how it’s done. Just give us an email.

 

I am ready to buy a 360Booth®. How do I set up a visit from you?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Okay, you’re ready to purchase 360Booth®. How do I set up a schedule with you, Jay, to come see my store and visit my team?

It’s super easy. Go to 360Booth®.com, click on More Information, and I’ll send you all the pricing and option details. Most importantly, I’ll send you the minimum space requirements so you fully understand in the PDF what size studios I produce and what length, width and height of the room I need. I’ll call you immediately. You’ll be shocked at how quickly that happens. Then I’m going to ask you questions and answer any basic questions you have, and I’ll come and see you.

I will ask for one step from you. Please take a cellphone photo of the overall space, with length of the space, width, and height. That’ll basically allow me to know that you’re serious and in it to win it. That’s the only thing I need to come visit you. It’s absolutely free, no obligation.

The reason for that is that I needed to put a process in place so I knew I was doing the right thing to provide you with the information, but secondly, I weed out the weak.

Last week, during my travels, I did not follow my own process. It was a dealer from Louisiana. ”Jay-Jay, we’re ready to go! Come on, come on, come on!”

I jumped on a plane on my back to Tampa, went to New Orleans, drove 45 minutes. I get to the space. The GM kindly walks me to the parking lot and points to a light pole and says, “Jay, it can go there.”

(shoots self in face pantomime)

That’s what happens when you don’t follow your own process. He never looked at any of the literature I sent. He thought we built a building. We don’t build buildings. That’s up to you. I don’t want to be involved in that.

Go to 360Booth® and click on More Information. I will schedule a visit with you quickly and give you everything you need to know without any obligation.
 

 

Does the studio space need heat and or AC?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Will your space that you developed, like this one, need to have AC or heat? That is entirely up to you. Let me explain.

When I rented this space, we used our studio for testing and beta testing a ton of cameras and ideas. I’m in Florida, and I don’t know if you can tell, but I’m a little “dewy.” We don’t spend eight or nine hours per day in here shooting, and we have some fans around, so I chose not to do an AC.

I’ve personally been in spaces in Canada and New Jersey, and one experience was eight degrees. I walked into the studio, and the photographers were in a mask and gloves. It was eight degrees.

What happened to the studio? Absolutely nothing. The plastic, though, when we put the seams together, because of the cold air, shrinks, and it creates a little seam. You can’t see if the photos are shot properly. That’s the only thing that happens.

So, to answer your question, do you need AC or heat? That is entirely up to you.

I’ll ask you another question. If I had you shooting the cars, and you had to spend six hours in a freezing building, how long would you stay?
 

 

Do I need to black out my garage door windows?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Does your space need to have the doors or windows blacked out? It’s a great question.

Let me tell you one thing. If you haven’t heard, I visit–personally visit–at zero obligation. In six years I’ve never asked for a check. There is no pressure to get a check. My goal is to make sure you fully understand what you’re getting into; if it fits in your space; do you have the process, or how we can set up a process to make it easy.

But to answer your question about blacking out doors and windows:

When I evaluate your space, I look for that exact thing. Many times, because of the year and the sun angles, I actually wouldn’t do anything until I get there and/or after the studio has been installed. The worst-case scenario that could happen is that I would have a skylight directly above my studio. If that’s the case, I probably would cover that or spray paint it.

To answer your question “Do I need to black out my garage door windows or windows in the building?" I’ll make that determination for you and give you a little heads-up when I visit, and/or, because of the year and the sun, I would wait before I do anything so you don’t spend money needlessly.
 

 

Why isn't 360Booth® motorized?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

360Booth® is not motorized. The purpose for not motorizing it is to give you value. How do we build value? It is by making a product that stands tall and operates 24/7 for as long as possible.

Turntables start at 13,000. You install them. Truck turntables are 18,000. Those are both above-ground, and the Cadillac–the 20,000-pound, 18-foot, in-the-ground–is in excess of 45,000. You put it in the ground.

360Booth® is not motorized. We are proud of that. You simply just push it in the direction you need your light, and it is that simple. They’re not failing, and that’s why 360Booth® is leading the pack.
