Successfully Building and Install top quality Padel tennis club. The following core elements are required.
1. Let professional construction workers or builder a qualified concrete floor. Need outdoor waterproof 100A distribution box.
2. Choose best padel court manufacturers from China.
3. Professional installation technology and processes.
Step 1: How to Building a Concrete Foundation Floor for a Court ?
The concrete base floor determines the quality of the entire padel club. If the concrete floor is overall tilted or of poor quality,
it will directly affect the quality of the padel courts. We recommend that it be built by professional builders according to the
dimensions of professional drawings.
1.The size of the paddle tennis court is 20 meters long and 10 meters wide. The recommended size of the concrete foundation floor of a court is 21 meters long
and 11 meters wide. The overall thickness of the concrete foundation floor is more than 15cm. At the same time, the concrete foundation is equipped with
steel bars with a diameter of 12 mm, and the spacing between the steel bars is 20 cm.
2. It is recommended that the concrete floor of the padel stadiums should be 15 cm higher than the surrounding ground. This will facilitate drainage.
The paddle tennis court will have no water accumulation and will have a longer service life. If the court is filled with water and moisture for a long time,
it is easy to damage the artificial turf, and it is also easy for the steel and screws in contact with the ground to rust.
3. If the concrete foundation of the court is the same height as the surrounding areas, it is recommended to have a drainage system in place.
Keep your court dry for long time.
4. Key core: The entire concrete foundation of the court must be on the same horizontal line. If the foundation tilts,
it will directly cause the entire padel court to tilt, and the glass can not be installed.
5. The surface of the concrete floor should be flat and smooth. If the ground is uneven and rough, the padel artificial grass will be damaged.
Will shorten the service life of artificial turf.
6. Because there are LED lights in the padel stadiums, it is basically necessary to consider layout of electric wire in advance.
Also consider electric wire safety.
7. If two courts are installed at the same time, the distance between the court and the court gate should be at least 2 meters.
Too close distance will affect players' playing.
8. It is recommended to install resting chairs and sun umbrellas outside the stadium to facilitate spectators to rest and watch the game.
The construction and installation of a padel court requires about 5-6 workers at the same time.
Step 2: How to choose the best Padel Tennis Court Manufacturers ?
The quality of courts affects safety and service life. You should choose top quality suppliers.
If it rains outdoors, you should consider the quality of the raw materials. Poor quality can easily rust, rot, and is unsafe.
The quality of raw materials is the core element of a high-quality paddle tennis court.
If it is installed outdoors, it is recommended to use the following raw materials.
1. Metal structure of the court: Because the padel tennis court has 18 pieces of glasses, and the glass is very heavy, the metal structure must be scientific, reasonable and stronger to be able to bear the weight of the glass. Metal structures used outdoors should use standard hot-dip galvanized steel pipes so that they will not rust or rot when exposed to rain for a long time outdoors. If black iron is used for steel pipes in metal structures, they will begin to rust and rot after 2 years, which is very dangerous.
If the outdoor wind force is below level 8, you can consider the columns size to be 80*80*3mm or 100*100*3mm. The thickness of the steel pipe must be the standard 3 mm thickness. Otherwise, the outdoor wind load resistance capacity will be affected. Some small factories in order to reduce costs and use steel pipes with a thickness of 2 mm or 2.5mm, which will directly affect outdoor safety. If the outdoor wind is greater than level 8 or there are frequent super hurricanes, it is recommended that the columns size be 120*120*3mm or 120*120*4mm. Only in this way can sufficient resistance to hurricanes be ensured.
The mesh fence also uses hot-dip galvanized wire to avoid rust and rot. The diameter of the wire mesh should be 4 mm, and the hole spacing of the wire mesh should not be big than 50*50 mm, otherwise it will affect the overall firmness. The wire mesh will deform after long-term use. Affects the paddle tennis experience. If the raw material of the wire mesh is black wire mesh, after the surface of the wire mesh has been hit by a tennis ball for long time, the plastic spray layer or paint on the surface will fall off, and it will soon rust and rot after 2 years.
The welding and surface treatment of the metal structure are very important. They must be finely polished and rust removed, and then sprayed with high-quality outdoor powder. In this way, the powder has stronger adsorption force and will not fall off after long-term use.
After the metal structure is sprayed and cooled, it must be packed in time to avoid collision damage.
At the same time, waterproof outer packaging should be used.
2. Glass is most important raw material for the padel courts, and high-quality 12mm thickness tempered glass must be used
because players will frequently hit the glass. Glass involves the safety of players and spectators. Each piece of glass in a
paddle tennis court has 10 countersunk holes, and the drilling technology requires very high standards.
You must purchase glass produced by high-quality big factory. The glass holes produced by small family workshops are prone to cracking.
Glass with a thickness of 10 mm is not strong enough. Affect safety.
3. The quality of padel artificial turf directly affects the service life and comfort of playing . The raw material of artificial turf grass must be PE,
because PE grass is soft and comfortable, and the playing experience is very good. Do not use the PP grass yarn, because the PP grass yarn is relatively hard and uncomfortable when playing. Whether the artificial turf adhesive is SBR or PU adhesive are also can use. Similar quality. However, when the outdoor temperature is higher than 46 degrees, it is recommended to use PU Backing artificial turf . because the artificial turf will shorten and become softer after thermal expansion and contraction at high temperatures. There is a gap between the artificial turf and the glass on the ground, but it will rebound because of the soft PU adhesive. Shorten or restore to original size. different quality of artificial turf will be different price. Following parameters grass can use: PE grass yarn, grass yarn height 10-13 mm, 3/16, DTEX: 9000 or above, Stitch: 250-300 needles,and density between 52000-63000. It’s just that the experience of playing and lifetime is different. But it does not affect use.
4. LED lights must be outdoor waterproof grade IP65 and must be from major brands. In this way, the service life will be longer, and the LED lights must be designed to be anti-vertigo, otherwise it will affect playing padel games at night.
5. Screw and accessories must be made of 304 stainless steel for outdoor use, so they will not rust or rot when exposed to rain for long time, and are safe and reliable. The link blocks of the glass must also be made of 304 stainless steel, because the glass is very heavy. If the glass link pieces get rusty and rotten, the glass will fall and cause injuries to the players. very dangerous. If the screws and links are made of black iron, they will rust and rot after 2 years, it impossible to fix the entire padel court, causing safety hazards. Some small factories use the Fake 304 stainless steel screws, which may cause safety hazards.
Step 3. How to install a padel court ?
The installation of the Padel Courts is very important and involves a lot of details and technology.
It is best to have a professional team complete the installation of the courts. It can also be completed by yourself if you are a beginner.
Please follow our installation instructions and sequence below.
Step 1: Make sure the concrete foundation is overall flat, the ground surface is smooth, and there are no cracks or depressions.
Then use a level instrument to check whether the whole thing is on the same level. A level instrument should be used throughout
the installation process to check the level of the frame. Do not cause the frame to tilt.
Step 2: Before installation, mark straight lines on the ground to ensure that all columns are installed on the same straight line to
avoid tilting of the overall metal frame.
Step 3: Open the package of the column. Remember: do not open all the packages at the same time. If you use column A now, open package A.
Do not open package B at the same time, because this will cause damage and dust to the surface of the uninstalled column.
Open the package to avoid damaging the surface paint with sharp blades.
Step 4: First fix the corner columns, then install the upper and lower glass beams, and install and fix the metal frame of the entire glass (not install the glass)
Step 5: Install the LED lights and lamp posts. The sequence is: Now install the LED lights and wires on the light poles on the ground,
and then install the entire lamp post on the ground. It is recommended that the electrical wiring be put into the steel tube of the lamp post.
Step 6: installation and fix the mesh frame columns and mesh frame for padel courts. If you need to install mesh frame B now,
open the B package. Do not open all the packages at the same time to avoid surface damage.
Step 7: installation the glass. This step is very important to prevent the glass from breaking and at the same time ensure that the glass does not tilt after installation.
Glass installation sequence: 1. First attach the EVA rubber shock-absorbing strip, and place the EVA strip between the glass and the pillar columns.
It can protects the glass. 2. Use suction cups and tools to move the glass close to the column. Each piece of glass requires 6 workers to install at the same time. It will be safe. 3. After checking the position of the glass hole, fix the screws and rubber pads. The bottom of the glass must be protected by a rubber strip. Avoid breakage. Then fix the glass link block. Just tighten the screws that fix the glass. Do not overtighten the screws, as this may cause the glass holes to crack.
Step 8: Installation Padel Court Artificial Turf:
Because the turf is compressed and packed in rolls, the surface of the turf will have creases and deformations after long-term transportation.
Before installing the artificial turf, open the grass in advance and lay it flat on the flat ground for 3 days. after 3 days then begin to install artificial turf .
This makes the artificial turfs moother and more beautiful. It must be installed and cut according to the professional drawings provided by the artificial turf manufacturer. Never cut the length of the turf arbitrarily, otherwise it will cause a shortage of artificial turf size and can not be used.
This point is very important. Installing padel turf requires the use of turf-specific glue. Glue must be used between artificial turf gaps and splices.
Step 10: Spread 80-100 mesh quartz sand on the padel artificial grass. 1 court requires about 850-1000 kgs of quartz sand.
Most customers choose white quartz sand. Quartz sand should be laid evenly as soon as possible.
