The enclosure is what turns a launch monitor and projector into a real simulator you can hit into. Carl’s Place is a favourite for impact screens and enclosure kits because they can be sized to your exact room and hold up to years of full swings.

Screen first, frame second

Most builders buy the impact screen and either add Carl’s frame kit or build a simple conduit frame themselves. Measure your ceiling height and swing arc before ordering — this is where the small-room guide saves people from expensive mistakes.

Safety note

Give yourself enough distance from the screen and enough side netting; a fast strike needs room to be caught safely.

Pros
  • Impact screens known for durability and a quiet, forgiving bounce-back
  • Kits and custom sizing to fit awkward rooms and ceiling heights
  • Strong support and a big community of DIY builders
Cons
  • Frame (often EMT conduit or their kit) is an added cost/effort
  • Custom sizes push the price up
  • You'll want a bay deep enough to stand back from the screen safely
