I will definitely look into Yolink. My pump room is made of corrugated metal siding, which is easy to pull off panels and break into. I opted to go to for front load changer, just so if someone tried to break in, it would be visible from the highway. As for changing up the changer, this is brand...

No. Or at least mine won’t allow it.

WTH!!! That is insane!!!

Do you have an image? I have changed almost all my locks over to the Equipment Lock Company Puck lock. Don’t know if they are easy to pick but definitely more difficult than the master or American. https://equipmentlock.com/product/puck-lock/

Earl, I know this is an old thread but wondering if you had an image of how you did this. I just did a thread on my new Hamilton changer and I’m looking to enhance the security of it. I’ve casted it in a giant concrete block...

I like the idea of these puck locks. I just feel I need another deterrent. Is this your article?

Hello, I finally installed my new coin changer. Had a giant block of concrete poured around it. Im wondering have people done anything special to cover the locks on the Hamilton changer to prevent theft? I welded stainless steel flat bar around the face of the changer so I could have a place to...

I have had similar issues and customers would keep leaving bad google reviews. Kept changing up my sign with instructions. It’s been a month since my last modification and no calls/texts.

Readers for my vacuums are on cellular network. Readers for my bays are connected via CAT6 cable > modem

Believe you are referring to my Monex chip reader issue. One of my readers, had an issue where it wouldn’t accept chip cards. Worked with Kiosoft and Monex tech support and finally they said send it back and sent me a new one. Since then, I will say one of the biggest issues I have had is...

Nice! Buy the Milwaukee bits for stainless steel. Also get you a unibit or step drill bit and put a touch of oil/wd40 on metal where you are drilling. Makes life much easier. You hard wiring with Ethernet to all your bays or using their internet router?

Mine is a CPA.... funny bc she also enjoys counting the greenbacks

Get some modern darker colors (gray/black/blue), do the trim in a white or light gray, and make it pop with bright neon or red hoses/vacuums. Whether its in a good or bad neighborhood everyone appreciates a modern looking structure. When I was remodeling, cant tell you how many people stopped by...

I've yet to get my Fiance to go see my car wash, much less help me changeout gasket. She has seen me order thousands of dollars worth of supplies/equipment over the last 9 months while I have remodeled it.... Loves that its finally making money, but could careless about seeing it in person. SMH.

I have also been looking into memberships. Only reason I am more inclined to do it, I have had several fleets of vehicles coming through at different times to wash 3-4 vehicles. I also have an Amazon distribution center about 1.5 miles from me and have talked to several of the drivers when they...

Unsure of your location but if you are in a high traffic area I would keep the hand car wash. I know someone in Houston who had a gross revenue of $1.2MM last year and the place is nothing special. He is at a busy intersection and focuses on quick turnover.

Just curious, where is your wash located?

Hello, I’m South of Houston in Dickinson. Took over an abandoned wash last year and remodeled it this spring. My goal was for the equipment to be reliable and my site to be safe and clean 24/7. I also added the Monex timers, programmed to countup in the wash bays and a set time at the vacuums...

I had intellectually challenged individual back his 18 wheeler into my bay and bend the boom.

It’s near impossible. I’m actually working out of state right now. I managed to meet the neighbors who lives close by and one of them helps me out with trash and minor repairs. I recently remodeled the wash early in the year. However, I like the idea of front load changer, it’s a fairly busy...
