Why Retractable, and How It Works
Why we went retractable
We are Matt and Kade, a father and son company in Aledo, Texas. Before The Home Fairway existed we had a fixed enclosure in our own garage. It worked exactly as advertised, and it took the garage and never gave it back. We started The Home Fairway because we wanted the golf without handing over the room, and because nobody was selling that at a price we thought was fair.
The problem we set out to solve: a room that has to do two jobs
This was our own setup before The Home Fairway. A fixed enclosure, up permanently.
Look at what it takes. The frame, the netting, and the golf sim claim the floor and never give it back. The room has exactly one job now. That is the trade every permanent enclosure asks you to make, and for most people it is the reason a home simulator never happens. You do not have a spare room to surrender. You have a garage that still parks cars, a basement the family uses, a bonus room that has to pull double duty.
What we have instead
The same room, one press of the remote apart.
Full sim when you want it. A room again when you do not. No disassembly, no dragging panels into a closet, no square footage surrendered.
How our system works
1. Deploy. One press of the RF remote lowers the rear impact screen and both side screens into a full golf sim. No cranking, no ladders, no lifting panels into place.
2. Play. Pair it with any launch monitor, projector, and simulator software you like. The rear screen is a true 3-ply impact screen built for real ball speed, and the two side screens keep stray shots contained.
3. Retract. Press again and the screens roll up into the ceiling. Your garage, basement, or bonus room is fully usable again in seconds.
What is included
Every Home Fairway size ships with a motorized rear 3-ply impact screen, two motorized side screens up to 8 ft deep, and an RF remote. The side screens are in the base price, not an upgrade you buy back later. The screens drop up to 10 ft with no seam, with longer drops available. The housings are compact: 7 in by 7 in for the main impact screen and 4 in by 4 in for each side screen. Each of the three motorized screens has its own 120V plug-in power lead. They do not need three separate outlets; plan where the leads will reach power, and we recommend plugging them into a surge protector.
Not included: ceiling panel, corner pieces, baffles, fasteners, and installation. The mounting brackets are included. We do not install, and we do not sell launch monitors, projectors, computers, mats, or turf. It ships ready to mount. Most of our customers have an electrician hang it, and a handyman service can do it too. The brackets are 3 in by 5 in and have to land on studs or joists, or on rated heavy-duty toggle bolts. Never drywall alone.
Why we price it the way we do
Full-kit retractable systems bundle in ceiling panels, baffles, brackets, and corner pieces, then charge a premium for parts most buyers do not need. We went after what actually matters: the motorized screens themselves, in premium materials, at an honest price. For context on the two systems we get asked about most, SportScreen's Vanish costs $1,000 more with remote control than with a hand crank, and G-TRAK lists no side screens at all. Ours are motorized and both side screens are in the base price.
Sizes and prices
Fairway 8 is $2,399, Fairway 10 is $2,649, Fairway 12 is $2,899, Fairway 14 is $3,149, and Fairway 16 is $3,449. The Fairway 12 is our most popular size because it suits most two-car garages and bonus rooms. It measures 148 1/8 in outside bracket to outside bracket, and its 8 ft side screens run 100 1/2 in out from the wall toward the golfer. We quote custom widths.
Shipping, lead time, and warranty
Freight is free to the lower 48 only. Every standard size ships in 5 to 10 days; custom widths get their lead time with the quote. Every size can be returned within 30 days of delivery with a 15 percent restocking fee, so it still pays to be certain of your size before you order. The 2-year limited warranty covers the motors, electronics, remote and hardware, from the purchase date, for the original purchaser. The screens are a consumable and are not covered; anything that arrives damaged or defective is covered regardless.
Should you get fixed or retractable?
Sometimes the answer is fixed, and we would rather tell you before you pay freight. If the room is dedicated to golf and nothing else, a fixed enclosure is simpler, cheaper at the entry level, and has nothing to fail. We wrote a neutral guide to that decision: should I get fixed or retractable. Read it before you buy from us.
