Recently, a customer asked me a question: “Can concrete walls be used instead of tempered glass walls?”
The answer is yes, but before making a decision, one needs to comprehensively weigh all factors. Let’s analyze the differences between the two in detail.
Bounce of the ball
Tempered Glass are smooth, the ball bounces regularly, and players can easily predict.
Concrete walls are rough, the ball bounces at varying angles and speeds, and players need to adapt.
Vision and Lighting
Tempered glass has good light transmission. It can make full use of natural light, creating an open and bright court environment.
In contrast, concrete walls block light, and the space can feel oppressive.
Safety
Tempered glass is collision – resistant. Even when it breaks, it causes little harm.
Although concrete walls are strong, players can be easily injured if they hit the wall. Moreover, when the wall is damaged, there is a risk of fragments falling off.
Sound Transmission
In a glass – walled court, the sound is crisp, and external sounds can easily penetrate.
Concrete walls, however, have good sound insulation, the overall sound environment can seem dull.
Cost and Maintenance
The materials and installation of glass walls are expensive, yet daily maintenance is straightforward.
Concrete walls, on the contrary, have low construction costs, but subsequent inspections and repairs can be both troublesome and costly.
In short, replacing glass with walls has its pros and cons. Builders should make decisions considering factors like budget, usage requirements, and player experience.
