Which size Billiards fits best in my space
Dimensions and space required
The big question is always how much space do you need for a table. For this we have the table below that you can use as a guideline. A standard carom choice is 140 centimeters and with pool and snooker it is approximately 145 centimeters. To be on the safe side we add at least 5 centimeters to promote the fun.
If the net doesn't quite fit you can often come up with solutions such as a shorter cue (available in 130cm, 120cm and 110cm) that can be used when punching where the ball is on the belt and you have to punch perpendicularly and you just that little space is lacking. We are happy to think along with you and provide a solution for your situation. We always calculate with the play size (measured between the bands, space where the ball can roll) and 2x the length of the cue.

Some situations can be more difficult due to, for example, a sloping roof where you cannot stand upright or another obstacle in the room, such as a pillar, stairwell or a piece of furniture.
If desired, we can also send you a template with the sizes to scale, we have these 1: 100 and 1:50.
We would be happy to advise you if you are unable to find a solution.
