If you’re building a golf simulator — whether it’s for a home setup, a commercial space, or a full indoor facility — the fabric you choose matters a lot more than people think.
Most people focus on the screen. But in reality, the side walls, ceiling, and enclosure fabrics are what make the simulator feel professional, reduce noise, and meet code.
We’ve been getting a lot of calls about this recently, so here’s a straight breakdown of what works and what doesn’t.
A complete simulator setup usually involves three different fabric types:
We don’t supply impact screens directly, but we handle everything around it — which is where most of the issues actually happen.
If light bounces around your simulator, your image quality drops instantly.
That’s why most professional builds use:
These materials absorb light instead of reflecting it.
Result:
Golf simulators are loud. Between impact noise and echo, it can get overwhelming fast.
Heavier fabrics help:
These fabrics:
If your simulator is in:
you may be required to meet fire regulations.
The two most common standards:
Most inspectors in Canada (including venues like MTCC) will ask for documentation. Keep in mind that what passes NFPA (USA fire codes) does not nessissary mean it passes Canada CAN/ULC regulations. Understand the difference between CAN/ULC vs NFPA codes.
We typically provide:
We see this all the time:
It depends on your enclosure size, but most builds require:
If you send us your dimensions, we can calculate yardage properly and recommend the right setup.
We can also help with:
So you’re not figuring it out on-site.
A golf simulator isn’t just about the screen.
The fabric around it is what:
If you’re building one, it’s worth getting this part right from the start.
If you’re working on a golf simulator setup in Canada, reach out with your dimensions and we’ll guide you on the right fabric and quantities.
We supply golf simulator fabrics across Toronto, Montreal, and Canada-wide
