A games table needs space for play as well as a place in the room. Check the playing surface, overall dimensions and the clearance required by the game and accessories. Confirm what is supplied, how the table is assembled and whether specialist installation is needed. Match the surrounding seating and lighting to the activity.

How much space is needed around a games table?
Use the exact table’s overall and playing dimensions, then allow room for players and the relevant equipment. Pool cues, table-tennis play and table-football handles require different clearances. Ask for a layout recommendation for the selected model rather than using one clearance for every game.
What should I confirm before delivery of a games table?
Check weight, access, assembly and levelling requirements. Obtain an itemised list of included accessories and ask about surface maintenance. A table photograph does not confirm that cues, balls, bats, nets or installation are supplied.
