SimSpace SIM 4 enclosurethe padded bay, frame and impact screen — sized to your wall
· Proposal for David
Prepared for David · October 2026
New build · Garmin Approach R50 · SIM 4 bay
Your golf room, designed before the walls go up.
Here are two complete rooms sized to your 5 × 9m, with every cost on the table and the one I'd build for you marked.
That's the Garmin Approach R50 room I'd build, ready-filled at £8,647.96. Each room below has its own basket.

Your space
Your space: 5 × 9m
Drawn to your measurements: 5m wide, 9m long and 4m high — a garden cabin still to be built, with the screen on one of the 5m end walls and the far end kept clear for yoga.
Width · 5m
74cm to spareThe SIM 4 enclosure is about 4.1m wide outside, and we recommend at least 8cm clear each side, so it needs a 4.26m wall.
Height · 4m
Full swing height2.7m is our minimum for a full swing, and you have more than enough.
Length · 9m
It works30cm clear behind the bay + 2.5m from the screen to the ball + swing space behind you: at least 4.2m in all.
Building
Set the dimensions nowAs you are building, I can confirm the exact measurements with you before your builder fixes the walls.
Worth sorting before it arrives
A double socket at the screen end
For the projector and the R50, plus one by the hitting area.
A safe route for the HDMI cable
The 10m HDMI cable carries the picture from the launch monitor or PC to the projector. Plan where it runs, under the turf or in a cable cover, so nobody trips on it.
Blinds on any windows
A darker room gives a sharper picture.
30cm clear behind the bay
And 8cm either side, so the screen can give with each shot.

Why I'd build the Garmin Approach R50 room
No PC, simple to use, and the most popular choice for a home and friends sim. It fits your 5 × 9m room in a SIM 4 bay, with nothing needed behind the ball.
The trade-off: Club data is less consistent than its ball data in independent tests.
What I've assumed
The projector sits in its floor case in front of you — prefer it on the ceiling? I'll swap it.
We haven't talked budget, so I've recommended the best-value room that fits rather than the most expensive.
No gaming PC needed: the Garmin Approach R50 runs the simulator itself.
If any of that's wrong, tell me and I'll redraw it.

Also works with GSPro (Windows PC, its own licence), E6 Connect and Awesome Golf, with no Garmin membership needed | Foresight+ Gold, $599 a year: swing video in the Foresight app, and access for software such as GSPro (GSPro subscription bought separately) |
| Runs on | The R50's own screen, straight to the projector over HDMI (1080p) | A Windows gaming PC, out to the projector |
| Games & multi-sport | Golf only. Other sports need an add-on such as the TruGolf ARCADE, plus a PC | Golf only. Foresight's football (Skill Drill) is on its GCHawk only |
Garmin Approach R50: Club data needs the reflective stickers supplied with the R50, one on each club face. Ball data works without them. All shot data, impact video and driving-range practice are included. A Garmin Golf membership adds course play, practice on those courses, the weekly tournament and cloud video storage. Ball data is its strength. In independent tests, club data was less consistent, with some missed reads and angle of attack the weakest.
Foresight GC3: Club data needs one Foresight club marker on the face (supplied). Ball and club data are both on Foresight's free plan. Tour-level ball data. Club data covers club speed, smash, path and angle of attack; for face angle you'd need Foresight's GCQuad.
Picture quality
1080p or 4K: what you'll actually see
The picture is only as sharp as the weakest link: what draws it (the launch monitor or a PC) and the projector. Impact screens sold as “4K” have a finer weave that shows a sharp picture cleanly, but the resolution itself comes from the projector and what feeds it.
The Garmin Approach R50 room: the R50's own HDMI output and a 1080p projector, a matched pair.1080p
The Foresight GC3 room: the gaming laptop and a 1080p projector, a matched pair.1080p
1080p
Garmin R50 on its own
The R50 runs its courses itself and sends the picture over HDMI at up to 1080p. A 1080p short-throw projector is the right match. A 4K projector would only upscale the same 1080p picture.
Up to 4K
Garmin R50 with a gaming PC
Connect the R50 to a gaming PC running GSPro or E6 Connect and the PC draws the picture. With a 4K-capable PC and a 4K projector, that's true 4K. GSPro needs its own licence.
Up to 4K
PC-run launch monitors
Foresight, Full Swing and similar units run on a PC, so the PC and projector set the picture. A 4K PC and a 4K projector give true 4K; a 1080p projector gives 1080p.
Is 4K worth it? It's sharpest on a big screen viewed up close, and for films or TV on the same projector. For golf on an R50, 1080p is the honest match.

Designed for your cabinDrawn to 5 × 9m, so the golf end and the yoga end each get their own space.
One order, one personEvery part comes from us, and you deal with me from the first call to your first round.
Nothing missingProjector, floor case, turf, underlay, bumpers and cabling are all in the price.
Golf and yoga
One cabin, two uses
At 9m deep, the cabin has room for both. The golf end takes the first 5.5m from the screen wall; the rest is clear floor for yoga.
The golf end
A SimSpace SIM 4 on one 5m end wall, with putting turf on cushioned underlay for the first 4m. The SIM 4 is only 1.5m deep, which is what leaves the far end free.
The yoga end
About 5 × 3.5m of clear floor behind the swing, on the cabin's own floor rather than turf, so mats lie flat.
Why it works
Both launch monitors sit beside the ball, so nothing goes on the floor behind the golfer and the space behind the swing stays open.
A divider if you'd like one
A ceiling track and curtain across the cabin at about 5.5m would separate the two ends. It's a job for your cabin builder.
Your cabin
What to tell your cabin builder
The cabin isn't built yet, so a few details are easiest to settle now.
Clear height
At least 2.7m across the golf end, under any beams or tie bars. The SIM 4 stands 2.5m tall; the extra is for a full swing.
The screen wall
One of the 5m end walls, with no door or window on it. Doors and windows work best on the side walls at the yoga end.
A double socket in the floor
About 1.5m out from the screen wall, centred, for the projector in its floor case, and one near the hitting area for the launch monitor.
A cable route
Between the two for the HDMI lead, in the floor or under the turf.
A solid, level floor.
The underlay and turf go straight on top at the golf end.
Insulation and some heating,
So the electronics and the impact screen aren't sitting in a cold, damp cabin through the winter.
Good WiFi
In the cabin, for course downloads and updates.
Lighting
Dimmable lights over the golf end, kept off the screen, and a fixing point above the hitting area for a simulator light.
Your questions, answered
Worth knowing before you decide
What exactly is included?
Every room is complete: the SimSpace enclosure with its impact screen, the tee-turf hitting mat, the BenQ AH500ST projector in its floor case, and the launch monitor. Each item is listed with its own price on the cards above, plus a sim-spec gaming laptop where the launch monitor needs a PC.
Do you fit it?
Everything is supplied ready to assemble — a SimSpace enclosure goes up in under an hour with SimSpace's step-by-step video. Tom is on WhatsApp for any setup questions.
How much space do I need around the bay?
We recommend at least 30cm clear behind the enclosure, so the screen can give with each shot, and at least 8cm either side of the frame. Those are already allowed for in the plan above.
Which balls should I use?
New, clean, unmarked balls. Premium soft balls such as Pro V1, Chrome Soft and TP5 are actually the hardest on an impact screen. Aiming at the middle of the screen helps it last.
Is there a subscription?
Only for course play — Garmin Golf membership, £8.99 a month or £89.99 a year, for course play.
Can I spread the cost?
Yes — Klarna and Clearpay at checkout, or Tom can send an invoice if you'd rather pay that way.
No rush, prices held for 14 days
