Hi Scott.
As a followup to your safety concern related to slippery floors in the locker room, we reviewed the issue with the facility manager. Due to ADA requirements, adding a lip to the shower stall is not allowed.
At the recommendation of the facility manager, we will purchase the attached floor mats that will be placed on the floor.
Please let us know if you feel this would help in making the area safer.
Thank you.
Jim

> Doug told us to take a pic and send it to you if we saw a safety concern. I regularly cycle to work and get changed in the level 2 locker and shower room, the way the showers are designed means that the flow into the drain is non-ideal and there is no "lip" at the entrance to the shower to act as a barrier out to the change rooms... the result is a hard to see slippery puddle... Ok when you are barefoot post shower but diabolical when you are in slick shoes on the way in... There have been occasions when this puddle has reached all the way around to the lockers (gross when you step in it with socks on.. ewww!)

The calculated pricing is based on the “Comfort Tile,” but the other matting has similar pricing if you are interested. Blue matting would be ordered at a cost of approximately $700 (including tax and shipping). Each locker room would have two mats so they could be rotated for cleaning (four mats total).
