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.

 

How do you operate 360Booth®?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Why is 360Booth® so popular and successful? It’s really simple, simple, simple.

How do you operate it? Simple. You simply walk up and push it. That enables you to direct the light on the vehicle at any time and simply. By the way, there are no motors, no turntables, no failures.

Here’s how it works. You walk up to the studio, and you simply push it. This is a 28-foot studio. It’s 1000 pounds. It only takes 30 pounds of pressure to move it.
 

 

It will be next to the vehicle car wash; will it get ruined buy moisture?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

You’re considering 360Booth®, and the only space you have available is right next-door to your detail department, and you think it may be an issue.

It’s not going to be an issue. Now, unless your detailers start crazily spraying the cars and it’s getting the cloth top all wet; that will stain. I wouldn’t recommend that, but the walls are plastic. Everything is steel-powder coated. It’s not going to be a problem.

Let me evaluate your space. I’ll do it at no cost. I’ll travel to your space. I’ve been to Anchorage, Alaska, New Zealand, Australia, Guam. I’ll go anywhere to listen to somebody who wants to take their photos to the next level and grow market share and higher gross. Give us a shot.

But to answer your question: Yes, you can put it right next-door to your detail bay. You do not need a wall or a partition.
 

 

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.
