Precision from the pre-assembly procedure
The initial step in delivering a high-quality pool table is the meticulous pre-assembly procedure. Before leaving our warehouse, each table undergoes proper inspection by our technicians to ensure completeness and consistency for all parts. It helps us to promise that there are no manufacturing defects or missing components that should compromise performance or delay your setup.
What our technicians inspect:
- Frame and leg construction: We confirm the stiffness and sturdiness of the frame, which allows it to support the slate and other levels over time.

Transportation preparations: safety in transit
After assuring the table meeting the internal standards, we can move on to transportation preparations. Pool tables are heavy, large and delicate – particularly those with slate beds. Hence, it is important that we assure a careful packaging and loading system.
Our transportation strategy
- Disassembly for transit: To protect the fragile parts, including rails and slate, we disassemble the main components and wrap them individually.
- Protective packaging: Each piece has foam padding, heavy-duty plastic wrap, and corner protectors to prevent dents or scratches.
- Climate-conscious loading: Sensitive ingredients such as felt and wood are susceptible to humidity and temperature. We load then schedule transportation to avoid exposure to extreme conditions.
- Secure stacking: Our delivery team assures nothing shifts during transport through using straps a well as padding strategically inside the delivery truck.
Along with this, we also maintain a transparent communication line with our consumers, updating you on estimated arrival times and every delivery-specific instruction for your property.
On-site installation: Professional and efficient
Our delivery procedure does not end with the table being dropped at your doorstep. Our trained experts will start the installation procedures at your convenience. This is the step where our expertise and experience truly shine.
Installation steps:
- Site survey: Before unpacking, we assess the space to identify the best positioning and clearances for comfortable play.
- Frame setup: Then, assembling and levelling the table’s frames appears. Our technicians use high-precision levelling tools to ensure the readiness of the support system.
- Slate positioning: The slate is then carefully hoisted into position and secured. We use specialized filler to seal the slate seams, making a seamless playing surface.
- Cloth stretching and fitting: the felt or cloth is stapled and stretched tightly over the slate, assuring smoothness with no bubbles and wrinkles.
- Rail and pocket assembly: Rails are aligned and fastened with expert care, followed by installation of pockets.
Installation is considered one of the most important parts of owning a pool table. Our experts are not just installers—they are craftsmen who will ensure your table is built for a long life.
Final adjustments and testing: guaranteeing game-readiness
Our duty consists of one more step to ensure your pool table is game-ready. After installation, we perform final testing and adjustments to guarantee everything functions flawlessly.
Our final checklist:
- Precision levelling: Even the most minor unevenness can impact We make fine adjustments using laser or spirit levels.
- Bounce test: Tests the ball’s rebound off each rail to verify consistent angles.
