App Instructions

Our sign in app is web-based. This means that you will not be downloading an app or anything else to your phone, you will simply be using your web browser to access the app’s online address, the same way you use your browser to look at websites.

From the comfort of your own home, you can start now by accessing the app and ‘Register An Account’.
Type into your browser www.LumleyRanges.co.uk/app/ and hit enter.

Once registered on our app, you will immediately be classified as a ‘VISITOR‘ and will have limited app privileges. Please note that visitors are only permitted to attend the range complex with prior written consent of either Harlow Practical Club or Lumley Ranges directly.

Once registered as a Harlow Practical Club member, your app privileges will change to that of a club ‘MEMBER‘ and will enable you access and book your shooting session/s via our app diary.

IMPORTANT
Our app is the ‘range booking diary’ and the ‘range sheet’. If you wish to attend, the use of both is mandatory.

FEOs may request your range attendance records. Your attendance is only recorded if you sign in AND out. If it appears that you do not attend regularly, your FEO may not be keen to issue your renewal certificate. Please bear this in mind.

* TOP TIP – Bookmark/favourite www.LumleyRanges.co.uk/app/ now. An alternative way to access the app is to scan the QR code which you will see on the signage in our parking area.

HOW TO USE THE APP
– ‘Register An Account’ on our app.
– ‘Log In’ to our app.

Geolocation access’ in your phone settings AND on your phone browser must be set to ‘allowed’ from this point on.

It is mandatory that two members are on range when shooting is in progress. Guests and visitors are specifically not allowed on the complex without prior written consent of either Harlow Practical Club or Lumley Ranges directly.

* TOP TIPS
– You may book as many shooting sessions as you wish.
– You may book up to two weeks in advance.
– You may cancel up until the day before BUT you may NOT cancel on the day. (If you book a session, do not cancel, and then fail to attend, your future privileges of booking range time will be negatively affected – The reason for this is that somebody else may have been relying on your attendance).

Check the diary before leaving home to make sure the details relating to your booking have not changed. (Reload/refresh the diary page to ensure you are looking at the latest version).

If you have unavoidable circumstances and need to cancel your range booking on the day, please contact us by WhatsApp. We will do our best to inform the people that will be affected by your non attendance.

* How to test that your geolocation is allowed.
You can do this from home. Try to sign in to the complex. If your geolocation is set correctly, to allowed, the distance between you and the range will be shown. If the app shows ‘calculating distance’ then you have not allowed all of the necessary geolocation access permissions correctly. Access problems can be caused by your phone browser’s compatibility, if this is the case, please choose Google Chrome as your default browser to view the app address.
