Room Size Calculator
Wondering whether your room is big enough? This tool will tell you. Enter your dimensions below — or scroll down to understand the numbers before you do.
Interactive calculator — arriving shortly
The interactive calculator is in the works — it'll let you enter your height, width and length and get an instant verdict on what will fit and how.
While it's being finished, the next two sections explain exactly what the tool will check — and you can send us your dimensions directly for a manual assessment in the meantime. We'll come back to you promptly with an honest answer.
Alternatively, read the full room design guide — it covers everything in detail.
Height, width, length — in that order
Height is the most important dimension — not for the screen (we custom any size) but for your swing, especially with driver and particularly if you're tall.
Ceiling height:
3m (10ft) — recommended; comfortable for any golfer
2.9m (9ft 6in) — fine for the great majority of players
2.8m (9ft) — the bare minimum; workable, but the margin is tight
Below 2.8m — you'll struggle to swing a driver freely. We'll tell you honestly if it doesn't work.
Width: For a centre-hitting setup you want 4.5m total — that's 2.2m either side of the hitting point, giving your arms and club room to swing without catching a wall. Less than 4.5m? Fear not. You can set up off-centre, shifting the hitting position toward one side — as long as you keep 2.2m clear behind the ball, you're fine. So all is not lost, even in a tighter room.
Length: You need roughly 3m (10ft) from the hitting point to the screen, plus around 2m (6ft) behind you to swing freely. Add 300mm (1ft) from the back wall for the screen frame, and your minimum usable length is around 5.5m. A room at 6m is comfortable; more gives you elbow room for friends.
Working from a blank canvas? The ideal is 3m H × 5m W × 6m L — but we've made it work in spaces well short of that.
What the calculator will check
When the tool launches, here's the logic it will apply:
| Dimension | Recommended | OK | Minimum | |---|---|---|---| | Height | 3m (10ft) | 2.9m (9ft 6in) | 2.8m (9ft) | | Width (centred) | 4.5m | 4m (off-centre) | 3.5m (off-centre, some restriction) | | Length | 6m | 5.5m | ~5.2m (tight) |
If your room clears all three minimums, a simulator is viable — possibly with some layout adjustments. If you're tight on one dimension, there's usually a workaround. If two or more dimensions are below minimum, we'll tell you honestly.
Impact from tight ceiling: driver clearance reduced — shorter irons fine, driver marginal or not recommended.
Impact from tight width: off-centre hitting position — fully playable, cosmetically identical to a centred setup.
Impact from tight length: screen moved closer — still functional, though a longer sensor distance (for some launch monitors) is preferable.
Send us your dimensions for a manual check
The calculator is coming, but you don't have to wait. Drop us a message with:
Ceiling height (measure to the lowest point — a joist, beam or sloped ceiling counts)
Width (wall to wall at the widest usable point)
Length (from the hitting end to the back wall)
Any obstacles — a boiler, fuse box, slope in the ceiling, or structural column
Rough budget if you have one
We'll come back to you with a straight answer: yes it works, yes with modifications, or no — and if no, why and what would need to change.
For a deeper conversation about room layout and what the design options look like for your specific space, the €50 consultation is the right step. It's fully redeemable against your order, so if you go ahead it costs you nothing.
