• Space Check

First, confirm if your facility has enough open space to fit a 20×10 meter court, plus room for safe walkways or seating. Padel courts take up less space than tennis, making them ideal for clubs with limited room.

• Surface and Drainage

The base needs to be flat and stable—usually concrete or asphalt—before adding turf or synthetic surface layers. Outdoor courts should include proper drainage systems to avoid water buildup.

• Choose Quality Materials

Glass walls should be made of tempered safety glass, and fencing should be sturdy but see-through (usually powder-coated steel mesh). The surface should be shock-absorbent for player comfort and safety.

• Consider Player Experience

Don’t forget small extras that make a big difference—benches, signage, access gates, or even LED lighting if you want to offer night play.
