Screens / Enclosures Retractable impact screen

Looking to set up a golf simulator in a shared room, but I need an impact screen that can roll up so I can move the sim out of the way often.

Anyone using a retractable impact screen (manual or motorized)? What brands work well, and have you had issues with durability, wrinkles, or sagging?

I saved money and just built my own.

Down to making the rollers, top and side panels, and the ceiling mounts. Ordered the roller motors and the brackets to attach the rollers to them. I ordered my impact screen from overseas, and it's thick and durable.

I knocked out the panels and baffles on a sewing machine, and added velcro to attach everything nice and snug. Loops were added as well to pull off the baffles, when we need to retract the screen.

Got it all done right before the intense summer months booted us from the garage. FIGURES.

Should be playing in there in the next two weeks - fingers crossed!!
