Room Design & Dimensions
The exact space you need to swing freely — height, width and length — plus how to make a tight room work. Real numbers, from dozens of installs.
Ceiling height
Height matters more than anything — not for the screen (we can custom any size) but for your swing, especially with driver and even more so if you're tall.
3m (10ft) — recommended
2.9m (9ft 6in) — fine for most golfers
2.8m (9ft) — the bare minimum
Below 2.8m you'll struggle to swing a driver freely. If you're building or renovating a dedicated room, design the height in from the start.
Width & length
Width. Ideally you hit from a centre point into the centre of the screen, which needs 4.5m — that's 2.2m either side of the hitting point so you don't catch a wall on the backswing or follow-through. Less than that? Fear not — you can set up off-centre (target line shifted right, or left for lefties) as long as you keep that crucial 2.2m behind you. So all is not lost.
Length is the easiest one. Your screen starts about 300mm (1ft) off the back wall, then you want 3m (10ft) from the hitting point to the screen and roughly 2m (6ft) behind to swing freely — a bit more if you fancy bringing a few pals around for a fourball.
Working with a blank canvas? Aim for 3m H × 5m W × 6m L.
Flooring & lighting
Flooring does more than look the part — a quality cushioned surface absorbs impact, reduces noise and protects your clubs. A typical build layers underlay, putt turf and a dedicated hitting strip (around 400mm × 800mm) for responsive feedback on every strike.
Lighting should be even and indirect: light the room without washing out the screen or throwing shadows across your stance. We plan both around your room as part of the design.
