Room first
A golf simulator is a room decision before it is a product decision.
Most expensive mistakes start before product comparison: ceiling, depth, width, handedness, mat height, side protection, parking, and software cost.
Ceiling height is not just a measurement. It depends on golfer height, swing, club, mat thickness, and comfort.
Width matters more when both left-handed and right-handed players will use the room.
Depth changes the setup path. Some systems and projector layouts need more room than a simple net setup.
Garage plans should account for rails, storage, climate, lighting, and whether a car still needs to park inside.
No calculator can guarantee safety. Use conservative results and ask an installer for high-end or tight-room builds.
