Padel Court Construction: Technical Specs & Investment Guide

Padel tennis is currently the fastest-growing sports investment in Egypt and the Gulf countries. However, behind the elegant appearance of glass courts lie precise engineering details that determine the difference between a project that lasts for years and one that requires costly maintenance after only the first few months of operation. Therefore, several critical points must be considered to build a successful investment project.

When planning to establish a Padel court, you must ensure that all project products comply with international standards, technical specifications, and the regulations of the International Padel Federation (FIP).

1. Technical Specifications and Steel Structure

Steel: Black or Galvanized Steel must be used to resist high humidity in areas such as the North Coast or the Arabian Gulf regions.
Paint: Consideration must be given to paint types such as Epoxy paints or Electrostatic Powder Coating to ensure color stability and scratch resistance, while verifying the quality of the paint type used.
Wind load: In open areas, we design the structure to withstand wind speeds of up to 140 km/h. Therefore, you must choose a specialized engineering company rather than many of the companies that have recently appeared in the market.

2. Tempered Glass: Safety First

We don’t just focus on aesthetics; we prioritize durability. Many Padel courts require glass panel replacements due to poor quality or improper tempering. Therefore, the following points must be considered:

Thickness: We provide 12mm tempered glass for all our courts, or 10mm for some commercial courts, to ensure the highest levels of safety and perfect ball bounce.
Certification: All glass panels comply with European specifications (CE Certification).

3. Artificial Turf

Artificial turf has become widely available in all markets, but have you asked yourself which type is best for Padel courts? And what is the difference between turf for Padel versus football?

We always strive to share information that benefits those entering sports projects.

Why do we prefer Textured/Curly Turf for professional Padel courts?

Sand Stability: It reduces the movement of silica sand, ensuring an even ball bounce in all corners of the court.
Longevity: It withstands high playing intensity (High Traffic) for longer periods than traditional monofilament turf.
Architectural Appearance: It provides a look similar to the international courts seen in the World Padel Tour.

4. Lighting

Several factors attract players to any sports facility; in Padel, the most attractive elements are the turf surface and proper lighting. Lighting must not be neglected and should be based on a photometric study to determine the appropriate light intensity.

Why do we provide El Sewedy, Philips, or high-quality certified floodlights?

Luminous Intensity: Helps distribute light effectively with a small number of fixtures.
Longevity: The floodlights withstand heavy usage and have a protection rating (IP) that makes them resistant to weather conditions.
Warranty: In case of any future failure, any fixture can be replaced within 24 hours.

6. Advice for Future Sports Project Owners

Avoid buying cheap, low-quality courts.
Choose engineering companies that provide genuine products with high quality and strong warranties.
Thoroughly check the previous work portfolio (track record) of each company.
Adhere to the International Federation instructions for any sport.
Investment is not just about putting money into a project; you must follow up on the project continuously.

7. How much does it cost to build a Padel court?

The cost of establishing a Padel tennis court currently ranges from 600,000 EGP to 2 million EGP, depending on the type of system, its luxury features, and whether it is a “smart” system. You can choose the type of Padel system according to your needs and capital.
