At Rage X-Treme, we understand that while smashing things is incredibly fun and therapeutic, it must be done safely. We take pride in our perfect safety record, which we maintain through careful planning, thorough training, and strict protocols. When you visit us, you can focus entirely on enjoying your destruction session, knowing that we’ve taken care of all safety concerns.
Our Complete Safety Equipment
Every participant at Rage X-Treme receives full protective gear before entering our smash rooms. Our safety kit includes:
Head Protection
We provide full-face helmets with impact-resistant visors that protect your entire face and head. These helmets are regularly inspected for any damage and are thoroughly sanitised between uses.
Body Protection
All participants wear thick coveralls that protect your clothing and body from flying debris. These garments cover you from neck to ankle, ensuring no exposed skin is vulnerable to cuts or scratches.
Hand Protection
Our heavy-duty gloves feature cut-resistant material to protect your hands from sharp edges while maintaining enough flexibility for a proper grip on your smashing tools.
Foot Protection
Sturdy boots with reinforced toes shield your feet from falling objects and any sharp debris on the floor. We provide these in various sizes, or you can wear your own safety boots if you prefer.
Eye Protection
Even with full-face helmets, we provide separate safety goggles underneath for extra eye protection. Your eyes are particularly vulnerable, so this double layer of protection is non-negotiable.
Room Design for Maximum Safety
Our rage rooms aren’t just random spaces filled with breakable items. They’re carefully designed environments that prioritise safety:
Padded Walls
All walls are lined with impact-absorbing materials to prevent items from bouncing back towards participants.
Safety Zones
Each room has clearly marked areas where participants must stand when not actively smashing. These zones are kept clear of debris at all times.
Non-Slip Flooring
Our floors feature specialised non-slip surfaces that maintain grip even when small debris is present, preventing dangerous slips or falls.
Ventilation Systems
Powerful ventilation systems remove dust and small airborne particles, ensuring air quality remains high throughout your session.
Pre-Session Safety Measures
Before you even pick up a tool, we take several important steps to ensure your safety:
Thorough Briefing
Every session begins with a comprehensive safety briefing where our staff explain all protocols, demonstrate proper tool use, and answer any questions.
Medical Checks
We ask all participants to disclose any relevant medical conditions that might make participation risky. This might include recent injuries, respiratory issues, or pregnancy.
Sobriety Requirement
For obvious safety reasons, we strictly enforce a no-alcohol policy. Anyone visibly under the influence of alcohol or drugs will not be permitted to participate.
Waiver Signing
All participants must sign a detailed waiver that explains the inherent risks. Our staff are always available to explain any aspect of this document.
Safe Smashing Techniques
We don’t just hand you a sledgehammer and wish you luck. Our trained staff teach proper smashing techniques to prevent injuries:
Proper Grip and Stance
We show you how to hold tools correctly and position your body to maximise control while minimising strain.
Swing Control
Our staff demonstrate controlled swinging techniques that allow for satisfying destruction while maintaining safety.
Partner Awareness
For group sessions, we establish clear communication protocols to prevent accidental strikes when multiple people are smashing.
Tool Selection Guidance
Different items require different tools for safe and satisfying destruction. Our staff advise on the best tool choices for various objects.
Item Preparation for Safety
Not all items are safe to smash in their original state. We carefully prepare everything in our rage rooms:
Electronics Decontamination
All electronic devices are stripped of batteries, capacitors, and any components that might contain harmful chemicals or create hazards when broken.
Glass Treatment
Glass items are treated to control how they shatter, preventing the creation of dangerous razor-sharp shards.
No Toxic Materials
We never include items containing toxic materials like mercury, lead, or certain types of plastics that could release harmful chemicals when broken.
Item Placement
Objects are strategically placed to prevent unstable piles or situations where items might fall unexpectedly.
Constant Supervision
While you’re enjoying your smash session, our trained staff are always watching to ensure safety:
Staff Presence
A trained staff member monitors every session through direct observation, ready to intervene if any unsafe behaviour occurs.
Video Monitoring
CCTV systems provide additional monitoring, allowing our safety team to observe sessions from multiple angles.
Communication Systems
All staff carry two-way radios for immediate communication if assistance is needed.
Regular Check-ins
For longer sessions, staff periodically check in with participants to ensure equipment remains secure and proper techniques are maintained.
Emergency Protocols
Despite all precautions, we’re prepared for emergencies:
First Aid Equipment
Every Rage X-Treme location has comprehensive first aid stations, and all staff are certified in first aid procedures.
Emergency Exits
Clearly marked emergency exits are easily accessible from all rage rooms.
Evacuation Plans
Detailed evacuation plans are posted throughout our facilities, and staff are regularly drilled on emergency procedures.
Medical Response
We maintain relationships with nearby medical facilities and can quickly summon emergency services if ever needed.
After Your Session
Our safety measures continue even after you’ve finished smashing:
Equipment Inspection
All safety gear is thoroughly inspected after each use for any damage or wear that might compromise protection.
Debris Cleanup
Professional cleaning protocols ensure all potentially hazardous debris is safely removed before the next session.
Participant Check
Staff briefly check with participants after sessions to ensure no injuries or issues have occurred.
Feedback Collection
We actively collect safety feedback from all participants to continuously improve our protocols.
