When looking through the different options of pool tables, you can sometimes find an option that’s very close to perfect. Still, there’s just one part of the table that would throw the design of your game room off balance, whether it’s the color of the cloth not matching the color of the walls or the wood or metal finish not matching anything else in the room. The good news is that many pool table options allow you to customize different aspects of the final product.
Figuring out what you want in your pool table can take time, especially if you don’t know your customization options. Luckily, there are various unique tables and manufacturers, each with different customization options. The color of the table’s cloth usually has the most options. Still, many tables allow you to customize the material and finish or alter certain parts of the design.
Here are the features you can customize when buying your pool table and a couple of different models with customization options.
Cloth
Cloth can sometimes be the most important feature of your table. While the legs and tabletop form the main design, most tables save pops of color to the cloth. Because of this, the cloth that your pool table has will directly affect the look and feel of your game room. Luckily, there are a lot of different pool tables that allow you to customize the color of the cloth you put on top of your table.
One of the best options for color variety is the Caribbean pool table by R&R Outdoors. This pool table has a full spectrum of colors you can pick from. This includes bright colors like red, lime green, and teal and more neutral tones like tan, gray, and brown. The Sinatra and Orion pool tables, also by R&R Outdoors, offer the same color options as the Caribbean but with more modern and contemporary styles.
Size
Different game rooms will have different dimensions, which means that certain rooms won’t be able to fit larger tables. Fitting a table that’s too big into a small game room, you won’t be able to use it. At West State Billiards, we sell three main sizes of tables: 7ft, 8ft, and 9ft. While 8ft pool tables are the standard for at-home game rooms, if your room is a bit too small, you may opt for a 7ft table.
While some pool tables only come in one size, options like the M1TO Pool Table by Massimiliano Maggio offer the same model in multiple sizes. The M1TO also has a 6ft option, in case you’re in an especially cramped space. This table can also be customized to your preferred top rail, cabinet, and leg finishes.
Legs
While many pool tables have legs as the main design feature, some are designed to work with multiple legs. This allows you to customize your pool table, as you can pick the legs that best fit your game room.
Brunswick’s Glenwood pool table is a fantastic option for choosing different leg options. The table can be installed with a tapered leg or other options, like a claw holding a ball. The Glenwood also has a couple of different finish options and many different cloth colors that you can pick from. If you want a pool table that you have a lot of control over, the Glenwood is a great option.
Materials And Finishes
If you already use wood or metal throughout your game room, it’s incredibly important that your pool table’s metal or wood match. Many manufacturers offer different finishes and materials with specific tables, allowing you to find the perfect match for your room’s features.
California House’s Austin and Palisade pool tables have ten different wood styles you can pick from, including a wide array of blacks, greys, whites, and natural wood tones. Additionally, the La Condo pool table by Canada Billiard has a wide array of both metallic and natural finishes that you can pick from. The La Condo also allows for the customization of the pockets.
The Fusion Metal Frame pool table allows you to pick the frame’s powder coat and the material that accents the frame on the top. They also offer a full spectrum of cloth colors, allowing you to pick a pool table that will fit into your game room like a glove. This table also has the option of coming with a dining top, which adds more functionality and customization options.
Pockets
Some pool table models even allow you to customize the pockets. Residential’s Brittany pool table allows you to fully customize the style of your pockets, even down to picking the metallic accent on the corner of the table. This table also has many options for cloth colors.
