Whether you’re launching your first barber shop or expanding to multiple locations, each Barber Pod is built to order, offering the perfect balance of practicality, style, and long-term value.

The Barber Pod can be installed externally or internally, depending on your space and vision. Every detail (from the colour of the exterior panels to the lighting and internal layout) is tailor-made to your specifications. Power sockets, LED lighting, optional heating, and security shutters can all be fitted to create a comfortable and professional workspace.

With installation possible in as little as a day, a SmartPod Barber Pod makes it easier than ever to create a purpose-built environment where your clients can relax, and your business can thrive.

Barber Pod

Small

The Small Barber Pod is ideal for independent barbers or those starting out who want a professional base without the high overheads of renting a traditional premises. Compact yet fully functional, it can comfortably accommodate one to three barber chairs, along with ample space for mirrors, storage, and client seating. Perfect for driveways, gardens, forecourts, or compact commercial areas, this pod combines style and convenience with minimal installation time. Despite its smaller footprint, the build quality and features are identical to our larger units, giving you all the performance of a full salon in a smaller, more personal space.

Large

Designed for established barbers or growing teams, the Large Barber Pod offers a more spacious layout that can fit up to five barber stations comfortably. This larger configuration creates the opportunity to serve more clients simultaneously, increasing your revenue potential while maintaining a professional, modern environment. Like all SmartPods, it’s built from premium insulated materials for durability and energy efficiency. With options for custom layouts, glazing arrangements, and finishes, the Large Barber Pod is a perfect choice for barbers looking to open a fully-fledged salon space or expand their brand with a new high-impact location.

Tailored

Every SmartPod Barber Pod is tailor-made to suit your specific business goals. From colour schemes and materials to layout and internal fittings, our design team works with you to bring your ideal workspace to life. Choose between modern or traditional finishes, configure lighting to your preference, and add custom signage to reflect your brand. We can even integrate bespoke cabinetry and mirror arrangements for a completely professional finish. Whether you need a single compact unit or a multi-chair setup, each SmartPod is built to order, ensuring you receive a space that truly represents your vision.

Modular Buildings for Barbers

Modular buildings have transformed the way barbers can create and operate their businesses. The Barber Pod combines the flexibility of modular construction with the quality and durability of a permanent structure. Unlike conventional buildings that require months of planning and construction, SmartPods are pre-engineered off-site, ensuring a seamless and efficient installation once delivered.

Every Barber Pod is built using insulated panels to maintain a comfortable temperature all year round, with optional heating and ventilation systems to enhance client comfort. The double-glazed, toughened glass provides both security and natural light, creating a bright and welcoming space for every customer.

SmartPod’s modular design allows for complete adaptability, from internal layouts and workstation numbers to the choice of finishes inside and out. The pods can be positioned externally as standalone units, or within existing commercial spaces, and can even be relocated if your business grows or relocates.

Maintenance is minimal thanks to the maintenance-free exterior, while the robust structure ensures long-term performance backed by a 10-year warranty. With installation possible in as little as a day and finance options available, SmartPod offers an affordable, future-proof way for barbers to own their workspace and scale their business with ease.

For Established & Startup Barbers

The SmartPod Barber Pod is designed to meet the needs of both experienced barbers and newcomers entering the industry. For startups, it offers a cost-effective way to create a fully equipped, professional salon without long-term leases or major construction. With finance available and minimal running costs, it’s an ideal first step for entrepreneurs who want to establish their own brand. For established barbers, the modular format allows easy expansion, whether that’s opening a second location, setting up a mobile branch, or installing additional workstations to meet growing demand. Each pod can be tailored to match your existing brand aesthetic, offering a consistent, high-quality image across multiple sites.

From single-chair studios to full multi-station salons, SmartPod provides the tools and flexibility to take your business to the next level.

Tailor-Made Sizes

Every Barber Pod is made to measure. While we offer standard small and large formats as a starting point, the final dimensions and layout are designed entirely around your requirements. This means whether you need a compact space that fits within a tight urban setting or a larger salon-style unit with multiple stations and waiting areas, SmartPod can build it to your exact specification. The flexibility of modular construction allows us to adapt each pod to suit your location, both in size and in design. Internal configurations can include custom cabinetry, lighting, and mirror layouts, while external finishes can be matched to existing buildings or your business branding.

Because every pod is built in controlled factory conditions, you’re guaranteed consistent quality, quick turnaround, and minimal disruption on site. Each pod is then delivered fully assembled or flat-packed for areas with restricted access, ensuring an efficient, professional setup every time.

Easy Placement

SmartPod’s modular design makes installation simple and stress-free. Each Barber Pod can be delivered fully built and positioned directly onto prepared ground or supplied flat-packed for assembly on-site in tighter locations. Installation typically takes as little as a day, allowing you to be up and running with minimal downtime. A site survey can be arranged to ensure your ground conditions are suitable, and our team can assist with base preparation and service connections if required. Once installed, the pod is immediately operational, no lengthy fit-outs, no complicated setup, and no need for permanent construction.

Thanks to its relocatable structure, your investment moves with you. If your business expands or you decide to operate in a new area, the Barber Pod can be dismantled, transported, and reinstalled with ease. This flexibility makes it an ideal long-term business solution for both fixed and mobile barber operations.
