MODSY mock Up

Do you have enough room for a pool table? My husband likes four to five feet margins around the table.

As for he fun part of your question, a deep burgundy felt would be my choice.

Well I’m actually in process of scheduling a pick up this Sat ... as I am writing this post :)

Beautiful table!

It’s not 4-5’ space

I would prefer to turn the table the other way but definitely more room turned in direction on mock up

So, you already ordered a pool table that you are picking up Saturday to put into your den?

Make sure you got enough room around the table. From the looks of the layout, you are tight on space on one wall into a corner overfilled of plants, and also tight on the wall you got glass doors on. Like Zalco said, it’s good to have 4-5 feet clearance around the whole table.

Yes, I ended up purchasing that pool table right after my post!

What size is the table and what size is the room?

edit to add.... what length sticks do you use?

100” x 55”

the mock up uses a 8’ table as well

I didn’t know the sticks varied in size :/

What is supposed to be 100x55 inches? That’s not a size for a room or a standard pool table size. Even a 9 foot table is 100x50 inches.

You used a 8 foot for the mock up... is that the size table you got?

what size is the room and what length sticks do you use?

Pool tables can work in a den or even in a dining room, as below. Myself, I'd avoid all the too predictable cliches.

I wasn’t able to edit my post!!

I want to know what you guys think of the decor above and any lighting ideas!!

the table above arrives Sat!!

***This information No longer matters as we already selected the table above but Just FYI

the table in the mock up

Dimensions: H 33" x W 98.75" x D 54.75", basically the same dimensions we’re getting (100 in L x 55 in W x 33 in H) here is the stick on the table***

Ok, so you got a 9 foot table, not a 8 foot table. Then your room size needs to be at least 12’2”x16’4” if you only use a 48” stick for your table to be functional. If you like to use a longer stick, the room has to be bigger for the table to be functional.

What size is your room?

Your room needs to able to handle that table IMO you need at least 5' all around the table and that is from the edge of the table not the felt part.

@beesneeds thank you for that info!!

we’ll make sure we have 48” sticks, the room is about 16x17

any thoughts on which way to turn the table or keep it as in mock up?

Please check this chart in regard to your room and the table you've ordered. It would be better to change the order than get something that won't be the joy you anticipate because it is not fitted to your space.

Thank you! I’ll do that today when the room is clear!!

Beesneeds thank you so much! You are right on with keeping it as the mock up and pulling to center of room to clear the glass! I can definitely get the stools in and maybe some smaller chairs

Everything was put on FB today as free pick up so the room is almost clear :)

I would paint your walls much lighter and let the pool table provide the color if you're sticking with the red felt. It sounds like you've never had a pool table before? You can choose your color - new felt will need to be applied after the table is moved. The movers/installers will need to know what you want prior to the move. You only need one shorter stick to use for certain angles, otherwise the ones on the wall in the photo are fine.

Cali Design : you are right — never had a pool table :/

It fits! We’ll probably need to pull it more from the sliding doors; however, it came with 2 small sticks.

@beesneeds

For sure pull it more from the glass doors.... and what’s the clearance between the table and the tv wall? Didn’t realize you had a tv wall, lol. You might want to pull it a bit further to the wall with the bar to give good clearance for the tv. And clean up that wire mess ASAP, it’s a trip and stick hazard.

Now some fun.... after you move it a bit more from the glass doors. Play some pool! Take a week or so to play some games, at different times of day if you can. Get a feel for lighting and what might be needed, how much room you use around the table.

Make sure the table is level. As in take a couple of levels and make sure the bubbles are in the middle. And get some pads for the table feet if there aren’t already there. The floor is lovely.

And a next big decision... is the felt good, and do you plan on keeping it? In a way, now you are setting the room to the felt. If it’s good and the color pleases you, keep it.

I think you are going to need to change the color on the bar wall no matter the felt color.

@beesneeds thank you for your time! You must love pool! :-)

it’s about 3-4’ clearance on TV wall

I can definitely see pulling the pool table in front of the bar offering the most space and freeing up space in front of the sliding doors. Bar stools can go in the corners and there’s enough space for my velvet chairs Either on sliding door side or opposite wall. There’s a lot of space to move

The reason for that red wall was that this wall served as sort of an accent wall when you walk into the house and look into this room. I think we’ll go with a beige wall. The floor and felt give off lots of color and contrast!

These were my inspiration decor photos (Lamps Plus); I want it to look a little more toned down glam than masculine. however, none of it is online so if it’s not in the store I have another option (they don’t have as much gold)

I originally wanted the tan felt like my inspiration photo above but I love the burgundy felt!
