Sydney gym fitouts run on tight leases and tighter timelines. Compound Fitness supplies the commercial-grade equipment, designs the floor plan to scale, and installs it with our own crew, so a new site in Prestons or a refurb in Bondi Junction opens on the date you told your members.
Three bands cover most of the gyms we fit out. The numbers are equipment, flooring and installation together, and they hold across Australia. The full breakdown is in the 2026 fitout cost guide.

A mid-size 24/7 or hybrid gym in a Sydney industrial unit typically lands between $150,000 and $280,000 for equipment, flooring and install.
That buys a full pin-loaded and plate-loaded strength floor, a cardio deck, a functional zone on custom turf, benches and free weights, with rubber flooring throughout.
Where the lease is short, we spec modular rigs and racks that come with you to the next site.

Sydney fitouts range from about $60,000 for a compact studio to $500,000+ for a large multi-zone facility. A 150 to 250 m² boutique studio usually lands between $80,000 and $150,000, and a 300 to 500 m² gym between $150,000 and $280,000. Our 2026 commercial gym fitout cost guide breaks the numbers down, and the calculators below give you a first pass on your own floor plan.
Yes. Equipment ships from our Gold Coast warehouse to Sydney metro and every part of NSW, and our own crew installs it. Recent Sydney installs include Riverstone, Richmond, Prestons, Mascot and Bondi Junction.
Design is usually a week or two of back and forth. Once the kit list is signed off, stocked equipment ships promptly and installation of a mid-size gym is typically a few days on site. Custom branded equipment and custom turf carry their own production lead times, which we confirm at quote.
