How to Line Mark a Tennis Court
At Playground Markings Direct, we follow a precise process to install long-lasting, regulation-compliant tennis court markings using thermoplastic:
Site assessment - We inspect the court surface for cracks, damage or debris and confirm dimensions for full-size or mini court layouts.
Surface preparation - The area is cleaned thoroughly to remove dirt, moss and loose material. Any defects are repaired to ensure smooth application.
Layout marking - Temporary guides are used to measure and mark the baseline, service boxes, centre service line and sidelines accurately.
Thermoplastic application - High-quality thermoplastic is heat-applied and bonded directly to the surface, forming bright, durable lines that meet official standards.
Final check and cooling - We inspect all markings for accuracy and consistency. Once cooled, the court is ready for immediate use.
Our professional installation ensures sharp lines, safe surfaces and long-term performance.
FAQs
What are the Markings on a Tennis Court?
The markings on a tennis court define the boundaries and areas of play. Each line has a specific function and layout based on standard dimensions.
Baseline: The back boundary line at each end of the court
Sidelines: The side boundaries for singles and doubles play
Service Line: Marks the end of the service boxes, parallel to the net
Centre Service Line: Divides the two service boxes
Centre Mark: A small line at the midpoint of each baseline to guide serving position
Net Line: Although not a painted marking, the net visually divides the court into two halves
These tennis lines create zones for serving, rallying and scoring, supporting fair and structured play.
Are All the Lines on a Tennis Court the Same Width?
Not all lines on a tennis court are the same width. Baselines can be up to 100mm wide, while all other lines must be between 25mm and 50mm.
This variation ensures visibility while maintaining compliance with ITF regulations.
