Structure
The 20m x 10m area consists of a galvanized steel structure, painted or coated with epoxy polyester resin in compliance with technical regulations.
The mesh size is 50x50x4mm. Frame connections with threaded rods, washers and rounded blind nuts made of stainless steel as well as a double opening of the entrance door of 1.10cm ensure optimal support. All materials have been approved by the International Padel Federation.
Optionally, the corners and the beams made of galvanized pipes (140 x 60 x 2 cm) can be individually adjusted. The sides (80 x 60 x 2 cm) are attached at a height of three meters with intermediate plates. Additional dimensions: anchor plates 300 x 180 x 10 mm and 200 x 190 x 10 mm with 10 mm sheet metal angles; screws m14 or higher; minimum length of the metal bolts 140 mm.
The glass is attached to the ground using various dowels and plates. Metal brackets up to 0.5m high support the glass and form the base of the columns. Horizontal crossbeams (30 x 30 x 2m) are installed at heights of 1m and 2m. The upper columns are sealed with PVC plugs.
To create the padel court we also use the following tools:
- Laser : for cutting pieces with the highest precision and finishing.
- Robotic welding: this guarantees the welding quality and prevents oxidation of the pores.
- Length: 20m (internal dimensions of the playing field) 20.40m (external dimensions of the pitch).
- Width: 10m (inner dimensions of the playing field) 10.40m (outer dimensions of the pitch)
Glass
Tested 10 or 12 mm tempered glass mounted on 5 mm neoprene to reduce vibration and breakage.
The glass manufacturing process is carried out following a standardized production process and in accordance with UNE EN 12150-1.
Advantages of tempered glass:
- Ability to withstand tensile stress. Higher resistance than annealed glass.
- In the event of breakage, the tempered glass shatters into small fragments that do not cause serious cuts or lacerations such as would be caused by the sharp edges of small pieces of annealed glass.
- These properties make tempered glass a good choice in terms of safety.
- Tempered glass has four times the mechanical strength of annealed glass.
Paint
The metal elements are coated with thermosetting polyester powder paint coated with polyester resins. This coating, in the color requested by the customer, gives the elements good resistance to corrosion and UV rays, as well as high resistance to mechanical agents.
Once the powder paint has been electrostatically applied to the surface of the material, the parts go into an oven where they are heated to a temperature between 180 degrees and 200 degrees. The chemical reaction that takes place is called polymerization.
In coastal or marine areas where the humidity is very saline (especially in the first 100m), we apply a series of additional measures that help protect the metallic elements.
The structure can be painted in the RAL chosen by the customer. Optionally, the system can be painted in two different colors . For example, the light poles can be painted in a different color than the rest of the elements.
Color personalization
Double coating
In coastal and saline environments, we additionally treat the structure with a two-layer primer system of pure epoxy, coated with either a powder or liquid paint.

Monofilament Turf
Latest generation 12mm monofilament artificial grass. This type of surface is ideal for outdoor use due to its texture and faster drainage. It is also recommended for outdoor use, especially at high temperatures, as it withstands the heat better.
Available in the 4 official colors recognized by the International Padel Federation: blue, green, orange/clay and black.
Textured Turf
The pitch is made of the latest generation of artificial turf fibers. This artificial turf range is safer, more stable, more resistant and promises a higher speed of play.
The 12 m long lawn is available in the four official colours accepted by the International Padel Federation: blue, green, orange/clay and purple.
We also have the new 10 m artificial turf used on the main pitches of the biggest tournaments in the world. It is characterized by the positive effect of its turf fibers. This improves grip while increasing safety and player performance.
Our entire range of turf guarantees maximum performance, safety, comfort, durability and is recommended by the International Padel Federation.
Lighting
The LED lighting consists of 8 spotlights with 150w or 200w and has been specially designed for our padel courts.
According to NIDE standards, the lighting of a padel court is always uniform and designed so that the visibility of the players, referees and spectators is not impaired.
We comply with the UNE EN 12193 standard "Lighting of sports facilities".
The advantages of LED projectors for padel courts:
- Unlike conventional halogen spotlights, the projectors switch on immediately, allowing players to make the most of their time on the pitch without having to wait until the maximum brightness is reached.
- Low heat emission. Due to its small size, it is also highly recommended for indoor padel courts.
- Compliance with the lighting regulations of the International Padel Federation.
- Energy saving. Our LED projectors save up to 65% energy compared to traditional halogen lamps.
