The Most Trusted Name in Paradigm Fitness Moving & Installation

We have specialized training and experience with Paradigm Fitness equipment. Our technicians understand the unique construction of Paradigm strength systems and functional trainers, including their cable routing, pulley systems, and weight stack configurations. We're familiar with the high-tensile strength cables (rated at 2000 lbs), counter-balanced Smith machines, and precision-engineered components that make Paradigm equipment exceptional. Our experience with both home and light commercial installations gives us unique insight into proper assembly, cable tensioning, and weight stack alignment to ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Paradigm investment.

Space requirements vary by model. For example, the Paradigm DSHR-2S+ Strength Training System requires approximately 66" x 82" x 91.5" (168 x 209 x 233 cm) of floor space. The X-TS Pro requires about 63" x 76" x 88" (160 x 192 x 223 cm), while the more compact GX4 Activity Trainer needs approximately 60" x 36" x 82" (152 x 91 x 208 cm). Beyond the machine footprint, you'll need sufficient clearance around the equipment for safe usage of all stations, including space for the Smith machine bar travel and functional trainer arms. During our consultation, we'll assess your space and provide specific recommendations for optimal placement and configuration based on the Paradigm model you own.

Moving a Paradigm multi-station strength system requires specialized expertise due to their size and weight (often 1000+ lbs). Our process includes documenting the current setup with detailed photos, systematically disassembling the unit with proper labeling of all cables and components, carefully packing and protecting weight stacks and guide rods, and transporting with appropriate equipment to prevent damage. We take extra precautions to protect the high-tensile strength cables, counter-balanced Smith machine components, and adjustable pulley systems that are crucial to the performance of Paradigm machines. Upon arrival at the new location, we precisely reassemble the system according to manufacturer specifications, properly route and tension all cables, align weight stacks with guide rods, and thoroughly test each exercise station to ensure everything functions correctly.

Setting up the cable systems on Paradigm functional trainers involves several critical steps to ensure smooth operation and proper resistance. We start with precise routing of the 6.2mm nylon-coated cables according to manufacturer specifications, ensuring they follow the correct path through all pulleys. We then properly tension each cable to provide consistent resistance throughout the full range of motion. For dual adjustable pulley systems, we verify that both sides provide balanced resistance and smooth movement at all adjustment points. We also check and adjust the 2:1 or 4:1 resistance ratios (depending on model) to ensure accurate resistance levels. Finally, we test all pulley movements, cable tracking, and weight stack functions to confirm everything operates correctly before providing usage instructions.

Installation time varies based on the specific Paradigm model and complexity. For a comprehensive system like the DSHR-2S+ or X-TS Pro that includes multiple stations (functional trainer, Smith machine, half rack), professional installation typically takes between 4-6 hours. More compact systems like the GX4 Activity Trainer may take 2-4 hours. These timeframes account for unpacking, assembly, cable routing and tensioning, weight stack configuration, stability testing, and cleanup. Our goal is always quality over speed, ensuring every component is perfectly installed for optimal performance and safety. We'll provide a more specific time estimate based on your particular Paradigm model during consultation.

Yes, we offer comprehensive maintenance services for all Paradigm Fitness equipment. Our maintenance includes cable inspection and replacement, pulley system lubrication and repair, weight stack pin replacement, guide rod cleaning and lubrication, Smith machine track maintenance, frame inspection, component tightening, and overall system calibration. Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your Paradigm equipment, ensures smooth operation, and provides a safer workout experience. We recommend scheduled maintenance based on usage frequency, with home gyms typically benefiting from annual service and commercial facilities requiring more frequent attention. Our maintenance service helps protect your premium equipment investment and preserves the lifetime warranty that comes with many Paradigm products.
