How much does a padel court cost?

Padel courts are the result of complex engineering that involves every part of the court: metal structure, tempered glass, turf, fasteners, lights, net, posts and so on. Each must have a specific density, dimensions and properties so the result is a court where the sport can be played safely and efficiently. So everything fits together perfectly.

In PadelMagic's case, we manufacture and design our courts in Valladolid (Spain) and distribute them worldwide. We have a team of experts in each area, working in sync with the requirements of every client. A court's characteristics depend on which of our three models you choose: ECO Frames, Panorama, TOP Professional, or the portable one.

The differences between each court are aesthetic, structural and in how the glass and structures are joined for the finish; one suits you better than another depending on the type of play required. The ECO Frames, for example, has 18 tempered glass panels of 3×2 metres in 10 mm, plus 30 metal structure modules, while the Panoramic has the same panels in 12 mm, but the glass is joined directly with structural silicone or methacrylates, not by a metal structure.

But to get to the point, after all this information: how much does a padel court cost? The price can vary, but as a general rule they range from 15,000 to 20,000 euros plus VAT per court.

Another element to factor into your court purchase and operation project is the cost and construction of the foundation the courts sit on — the padel court slab we explain at the previous link. The slab usually costs around 7,000–8,000 €.

Is galvanising a padel court mandatory?

It's a recurring question, and the answer is yes and no. You have to answer these questions: is the court outdoors? Is the court near the sea or in salty environments? If the answer is yes, you'll very likely need to galvanise the court to prevent corrosion and rust. When it comes to the durability and safety of a sports court, galvanising becomes a key factor. Galvanising a court not only increases its resistance to corrosion, it also guarantees a much longer service life, reducing maintenance costs and offering greater confidence to clubs, municipalities and companies looking for a safe investment. ### Advantages of galvanising a court

Long-term corrosion protection

galvanised steel performs much better in humid, salty or industrial environments.

Reduced maintenance

frequent repairs due to wear or rust are avoided.

Greater structural safety

galvanising protects the court against damage that could compromise its strength.

Smart investment

a galvanised court stays in perfect condition for many more years.

Regulatory compliance and certifications

with the right galvanising, the court can meet international corrosion-resistance standards.

### Most common types of galvanising for courts

Hot-dip galvanising

the most common, by immersing the steel in molten zinc, providing full coverage.

Electrolytic galvanising

more aesthetic, though less resistant than hot-dip.

Mechanical galvanising

used on smaller parts or specific structural components.

Each type of galvanising is selected according to the court's level of exposure and the environmental conditions of the area.

### The C3, C4 and C5 anti-corrosion certificates

One of the most critical aspects is anti-corrosion certification. In Europe the levels C3, C4 and C5 are used, defined by the ISO 12944 standard, which establish a protection system's resistance to corrosion:

C3: adequate protection for urban or low-humidity environments.

C4: designed for industrial or coastal areas with moderate salinity.

C5: the most demanding level, for high-salinity marine atmospheres or aggressive industrial environments.

### The truth about certificates: not all are valid

It's essential to clarify that it's not enough for the court manufacturer to simply claim a certificate. The certification must be real, issued by an accredited body and backed by actual testing.

In Spain, we are the only company able to offer a real, certified anti-corrosion guarantee at the C3, C4 and C5 levels.

### Conclusion

Investing in a galvanised court with a real C3, C4 or C5 certificate is not an expense but a guarantee of durability, safety and long-term profitability.

Shipping the padel court from factory to my club

The next step after confirming the court purchase is getting it from our factory to its final destination. ### Shipping courts from factory to final destination: containers, logistics Transporting a sports court from the factory to its final destination is a key process that must be carefully planned. The packaging and the type of container used are decisive in ensuring everything arrives in perfect condition. A standard 20DV container fits only one complete court. That's why, depending on the number of courts and the destination, we assess the most efficient option. Bear in mind that Open Top containers have an additional cost but allow bulkier loads to be handled more easily. ### Most common Incoterms in court shipping In international trade, Incoterms regulate the delivery conditions between seller and buyer. The most common in our shipments are:

EXW (Ex Works)

the seller makes the goods available at the factory and the buyer takes on the transport.

FOB (Free On Board)

the seller delivers the goods on board the ship at the port of origin.

CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight)

the seller covers cost, insurance and freight to the destination port.

We advise each client on the option that best suits their case.

Extras for your padel court

Worth considering if you want an extra beyond the padel court itself:

Custom club logo on the court (free)

Protections with logo

Special turf colours

Perimeter LED lighting

Scoreboard and technology

Covers and enclosures

Customs and Documentation

In any international operation, clearing customs is a process that must be handled with care. ### Basic documentation to export sports courts When shipping a court from the factory to the destination country, there are certain documents that are always required:

Packing List

the detailed list of the cargo, specifying content, weight and dimensions.

Commercial Invoice

the document that certifies the commercial value of the operation.

Bill of Lading or transport document

proof of the shipping contract.

### Additional certificates we offer

Beyond the basic documentation, in many cases it's necessary to present additional certificates:

EUR.1 Certificate

allows tariff advantages to be obtained in exports to countries with trade agreements.

Certificate of Origin

certifies where the goods were manufactured.

### The importance of professional customs management

An error in the documentation can cause delays, extra costs or even the retention of the goods at customs.

### Conclusion

The success of an export depends not only on transport, but on impeccable documentation management. With the right experience and processes, we can guarantee that every court arrives at its destination without setbacks.

Court installation and assembly

Correct installation of a padel court is as important as its manufacture. A well-installed court guarantees safety and durability. ### Available assembly options

Full assembly by our operators

our specialist team handles the complete installation.

Supervised assembly

we send a technician to direct your local team.

Self-assembly

with our step-by-step guide and technical plans.

### Client responsibilities in unloading and placing the material

It's important to stress that each court's material must be unloaded and placed at the installation site by the client, with the appropriate means (forklift or crane depending on the case).

### Service exclusions

PadelMagic does not under any circumstances handle electrical, plumbing or civil works. Nor the construction of the slab, which the client must have ready beforehand.

### Conclusion

Installing a padel court requires experience and organisation. That's why we offer several options so each client can choose the one that best fits their needs.

The estimated assembly time is 2.5 days per court with our team.

Contracts and guarantees

Transparency and security are fundamental values in any commercial operation. ### Online contract signing To simplify management and guarantee maximum transparency, we offer online signing of the contracts involved in the operation:

Sales contract

setting out in detail the obligations of each party.

Installation contract

when assembly by our team is contracted.

Works contract

for cases requiring additional intervention.

This system ensures that both parties know their responsibilities from the outset.

### Official material guarantees

All materials used carry CE certification, which guarantees they meet European standards.

This way, the client not only receives a top-quality court, but also the peace of mind of documented guarantees.

### Conclusion

At PadelMagic we don't just manufacture and assemble padel courts, we also guarantee the whole process with clear contracts and certified materials.
