WHAT TO KNOW WHEN PURCHASING A TABLE

WHAT TO KNOW WHEN PURCHASING A TABLE

Hi my name is Damien Salopek and I'm the director of B & K Traditional Billiards Pty Ltd. I’ve been involved in the billiard/snooker/pool industry for more than 20 years. The reason for our FAQS section is to give the customer free advice and information in purchasing your new billiard, snooker or pool table.

It has come to our attention from our customers that there is a lot of misleading information out there on the internet and being told to consumers. So I will try to do my best to give you enough information, advice and tell you what questions that you should be asking when purchasing your new table.

Room Size I need for a Pool/Billiard table?

Room sizes below are for ideal playing space (1.5m) from inside edge of cushions around the table with standard cues. However, with the use of shorter cues a smaller size room can be utilized.

NOTE: “Pool Table Size” indicates the felted area NOT the extremity of the table
