Annual Inspections

Here are a few resources to help you along the way of routine maintenance and inspections:

Bleacher & Equipment Inspections
Get out and visually inspect your outdoor bleacher and athletic equipment systems. A facility’s maintenance staff can easily inspect outdoor equipment for any potential problems that might arise. Here are a few things to look for:
• Loose and/or missing bolts and other hardware
• Cracked or cracking welds
• Bent or missing other parts
• Bracing and supports
With any educational athletic facility, the next season starts when the current season ends. Don’t let the summer months pass you by surprise, get out and visually inspect your equipment and as always drop us a line if there is anything we can do to help better prepare you for the upcoming school season.
