Rain or Shine Enclosures
A Rain or Shine golf simulator enclosure — also called a SIG enclosure, SIGPRO golf enclosure, or Rain or Shine simulator bay — is a complete golf simulator frame and screen system engineered by Rain or Shine Golf, the manufacturer behind the SIG Signature Series, SIGPro, SwingBay, and SimBooth enclosure lines. GolfSimPlanet carries the full Rain or Shine enclosure catalog: the SIG8 (8’4″ W × 8’4″ H × 5′ D, SIGPRO Premium or Premier screen, push-pin pole connectors, foam padding), the SIG10 (10’10” W × 8’4″ H × 5′ D, 100% screen fill — no white space, HD quality, up to 250 mph ball impact rating), the SIG12 (12’2″ W × 9’4″ H × 5′ D, largest SIG Signature model, suited for larger rooms and commercial bays), the SIGPro Commercial Enclosure (commercial-grade build, reinforced frame, full blackout nylon walls, SIGPRO Premium screen), the SwingBay (10.5′ W × 4.2′ D × 8′ H for the 8×10 model; 12′ W × 4.8′ D × 9′ H for the 9×12 model — push-button aluminum frame assembly in under 20 minutes, military-grade ballistics polyester screen rated to 250 mph, Velcro tear-away side netting, integrated blackout curtain, compatible with all launch monitors), and the SimBooth 1 and SimBooth 2 enclosures. All Rain or Shine enclosures use SIGPRO impact screens — available in Premium (standard) and Premier (upgraded) tiers — rated for 250 mph ball impacts with double-stitched black vinyl edges, grommets, and ball bungee mounting. Contact our Scottsdale, AZ team if you need help matching the right enclosure size to your room dimensions.
SwingBay Enclosure Golf Simulator Package
SwingBay Golf Simulator Screen & Enclosure
Rain or Shine Enclosure Lines — SIG Signature, SIGPro, SwingBay & SimBooth
Four enclosure lines cover the full range of home and commercial simulator builds — from a compact basement SIG8 to a commercial SIGPro bay. All use SIGPRO impact screens and share the same 100% screen-fill design principle: the enclosure geometry is engineered so the projected image fills the entire screen surface with no white border gaps.
SIG Signature Series — SIG8, SIG10, SIG12
The SIG Signature Series is Rain or Shine’s core home simulator enclosure line — three sizes sharing the same frame architecture and screen system. SIG8 (8’4″ W × 8’4″ H × 5′ D; screen 7’7″ W × 7’7″ H; diagonal 10’8″) — compact, suitable for rooms with minimum 9 ft ceiling height and 9 ft width. SIG10 (10’10” W × 8’4″ H × 5′ D) — most popular size, designed so the projected image fills 100% of the screen with zero white space. SIG12 (12’2″ W × 9’4″ H × 5′ D) — largest SIG model, suited for wider rooms and commercial simulator bays. All three models use push-pin pole connectors for assembly, protective foam padding on frame pipes, SIGPRO Premium or Premier impact screen (dual-option choice on all models), double-stitched black vinyl edges, grommets, and ball bungees. Expandable — SIG8 buyers can upgrade to SIG10 or SIG12 frame components later.
SIGPro Commercial Enclosure
The SIGPro is Rain or Shine’s commercial-grade enclosure — heavier frame construction, reinforced side barrier netting, full blackout nylon wall coverage, and SIGPRO Premium impact screen as standard. Designed for high-frequency use in commercial simulator bays, golf shops, and training facilities where durability under daily volume play is the priority. SIGPro side barrier netting is available as a separate add-on accessory and is also compatible with SIG Signature Series frames. The SIGPro Commercial Enclosure is the correct choice for any simulator installation that will be used by multiple golfers daily or requires the most robust impact containment available in the Rain or Shine product range.
SwingBay Enclosure
The SwingBay is Rain or Shine’s standalone push-button aluminum frame enclosure — designed for golfers who want a complete enclosure without sourcing EMT pipe separately. SwingBay 8×10: 10.5′ W × 4.2′ D × 8′ H (60 lbs). SwingBay 9×12: 12′ W × 4.8′ D × 9′ H (95 lbs). Assembly time under 20 minutes — push-button aluminum frame joints, no tools required for the frame. Includes: military-grade high-density woven ballistics polyester blend screen rated to 250 mph, nylon blackout curtain enclosure, triangular side netting with sandbags, Velcro tear-away side netting for off-angle shots, frame padding flaps, and integrated Velcro assembly. Compatible with all launch monitors and all projectors. Recommended space: 10.5′ W × 14′ D × 9′ H minimum.
SimBooth 1 & SimBooth 2
The SimBooth enclosures are Rain or Shine’s compact hitting booth format — designed for tighter installations where full room-width enclosures are not feasible, or for commercial venues that need multiple simulator bays in a defined floor footprint. SimBooth 1 and SimBooth 2 share the same SIGPRO screen technology and blackout wall system as the SIG Signature Series but in a narrower booth configuration. Best for commercial facilities, office simulator rooms, and installations requiring multiple side-by-side bays within a defined total room width. Contact our Scottsdale, AZ team for SimBooth dimension specifications and multi-bay layout planning.

Rain or Shine Enclosures — Key Specs & Selection Criteria
Four attributes determine which Rain or Shine enclosure fits your build: frame assembly system, screen material tier, enclosure size relative to your room, and commercial vs. home use requirements.
100% Screen Fill Design
The defining engineering principle across all SIG Signature models is that the enclosure geometry is designed so the projected image fills 100% of the screen — no white border gaps between the projected image edge and the screen edge that reduce visual immersion. This is achieved by matching the screen’s viewable area to standard projector aspect ratios (16:9, 4:3) without oversizing the screen fabric beyond the projected image boundary. The SIG10 is specifically called out by Rain or Shine as the model that most cleanly achieves this 100% fill at 10’10” width — the most common room width in US home simulator builds.
SIGPRO Screen: Premium vs. Premier
All SIG Signature enclosures at GolfSimPlanet now offer dual screen choice — SIGPRO Premium (standard tier, proven in thousands of simulator builds, superior durability to competitor screens in independent testing, lower bounce-back, reduced impact sound, double-stitched vinyl edges, grommets) and SIGPRO Premier (upgraded tier, improved surface smoothness for better projected image resolution with high-output projectors, higher image contrast). Both tiers are rated for 250 mph ball impacts. If you are running a 4K or laser projector, the SIGPRO Premier screen is the recommended choice.
Frame Assembly — Push-Pin vs. Push-Button
SIG Signature Series (SIG8, SIG10, SIG12) use push-pin pole connectors — a modular pipe and connector system that assembles without tools; poles connect via spring-loaded push-pin joints. The SIGPro uses a reinforced version of the same connector system for higher rigidity. The SwingBay uses a push-button aluminum frame — aluminum extrusion sections with push-button snap joints that assemble in under 20 minutes and are lighter than steel pipe systems (60–95 lbs complete). No pipe sourcing or cutting required on any Rain or Shine enclosure — all frame components are included in the box.
Launch Monitor & Projector Compatibility
All Rain or Shine enclosures are compatible with all portable launch monitors (FlightScope Mevo+, Foresight GC3, SkyTrak+, Garmin Approach R50, Rapsodo MLM2PRO) positioned on the mat surface behind the ball. Overhead launch monitors (Uneekor EYE XO, EYE XO2, Foresight GCHawk) require a separate ceiling mount — the SIG Signature and SIGPro frame systems do not include an integrated overhead launch monitor mount. All models support front projection; recommended space for typical simulator setups is 10.5′ W × 14′ D × 9′ H minimum. Contact our team to confirm projector placement and throw distance for your specific enclosure and projector combination.

Rain or Shine Enclosure FAQ
What is the difference between the SIG Signature Series and the SIGPro enclosure?
The SIG Signature Series (SIG8, SIG10, SIG12) is designed for home use — push-pin pole connectors, protective foam padding, SIGPRO Premium or Premier screen, and three sizes covering 8–12 ft widths. The SIGPro is a commercial-grade enclosure with a reinforced frame construction, heavier-duty barrier netting, and full blackout wall coverage for high-frequency daily use in commercial simulator bays, training facilities, and golf retail environments. For home builds, the SIG Signature Series is the right choice; for commercial installations, the SIGPro is the appropriate product.
What is the SIGPRO Premier Impact Screen and how does it differ from the Premium?
Both SIGPRO Premium and Premier screens are rated for 250 mph ball impacts and use double-stitched black vinyl edges with grommets for ball bungee mounting. The SIGPRO Premier is the upgraded tier with a smoother surface weave that delivers higher projected image resolution and better color contrast — particularly noticeable with high-output laser or 4K projectors. The SIGPRO Premium is the proven standard for the majority of home simulator setups. If you are investing in a premium projector for your build, the SIGPRO Premier screen is recommended to match the projector’s output quality.
What is the minimum room size for a Rain or Shine SIG10 enclosure?
The SIG10 enclosure measures 10’10” wide × 8’4″ high × 5′ deep. Minimum recommended room dimensions are approximately 12′ wide (1 ft clearance per side), 9′ ceiling height (6–8″ above enclosure height), and 14′ total depth (5 ft enclosure depth + 8–9 ft hitting area from screen to ball position for most portable launch monitors). Radar-based launch monitors (FlightScope Mevo+) require a minimum 10–16 ft of depth from unit to ball; camera-based units (Foresight GC3, SkyTrak+) can function in 8–10 ft. Contact our team with your exact room dimensions to confirm SIG10 feasibility before ordering.
Key Features of Our Rain or Shine
Rain or Shine Enclosures — Key Specs & Selection Criteria
Four attributes separate a Rain or Shine enclosure from a generic simulator frame: 100% screen-fill design geometry, SIGPRO impact screen material tier, frame assembly system, and commercial vs. home build durability rating. Choosing the wrong size or screen tier for your projector output and room dimensions creates problems — image overflow past the screen edges, incorrect throw distance, or screen surface quality below the projector’s resolution output.
100% Screen-Fill Design
The SIG Signature Series (SIG8, SIG10, SIG12) enclosures are engineered so that a correctly configured projector fills 100% of the screen surface — no white border between the projected image edge and the screen fabric edge. This is achieved by matching the viewable screen area to standard projector aspect ratios (16:9, 4:3) without oversizing the screen beyond the projected image boundary. The SIG10 at 10’10” width is the model most precisely matched to typical US home simulator room widths and standard 4:3 projector output geometry. White borders reduce visual immersion and are a direct result of screen width mismatched to projector throw distance — Rain or Shine’s 100% fill design eliminates this when projector placement follows the manufacturer’s throw distance recommendation.
SIGPRO Impact Screen Technology
All Rain or Shine enclosures at GolfSimPlanet use SIGPRO impact screens — available in two tiers. SIGPRO Premium: multi-layer woven polyester construction rated for ball impacts up to 250 mph, double-stitched black vinyl edges, stainless grommets for ball bungee tensioning, reduced ball bounce-back, and lower impact sound levels than single-layer screens. SIGPRO Premier: upgraded surface weave for higher projected image resolution and better color contrast — the recommended choice for builds using a 4K or laser projector. Both tiers are compatible with all portable and overhead launch monitors and all simulator software platforms.
Push-Pin & Push-Button Assembly
SIG Signature Series frames use push-pin pole connectors — spring-loaded joints that connect frame sections without tools and hold the geometry rigid under repeated ball impact loads. Protective foam padding covers all exposed frame pipes, eliminating ball damage risk on off-center shots. The SwingBay uses a push-button aluminum frame that assembles in under 20 minutes with no tools — all frame sections and connectors are included in the box, no pipe sourcing or cutting required. No Rain or Shine enclosure requires locally sourced EMT pipe — a key practical difference from the Carl’s Place C-Series DIY system which requires separate pipe purchase.
Blackout Walls & Light Control
All Rain or Shine enclosures include black nylon side and ceiling baffles that block ambient light from entering the hitting bay — improving projected image contrast without requiring a fully dark room. The SwingBay includes an integrated nylon blackout curtain enclosure that surrounds the entire bay, with Velcro tear-away triangular side netting for off-angle shot containment and sandbag weighted base anchors for floor stability. The SIGPro Commercial Enclosure provides the highest level of full-enclosure blackout coverage — designed for commercial venues where room lighting cannot be fully dimmed between sessions. Blackout enclosure geometry reduces the projector brightness (lumens) required to achieve adequate image contrast by blocking ambient light sources.
