Your artificial lawn and artificial putting green installation method is the difference between an artificial lawn installation that will last a year and one that you will be able to enjoy for many years to come. Quite simply, an inadequate installation will result in inadequate ball performance for artificial putting greens and that kind of putting green will not help you improve your game.

Panjia has invested a great deal of time in refining and perfecting our artificial lawn and artificial putting green installation processes – paying meticulous attention to every detail. Real performance starts with the perfect base during installation; knowing when it is appropriate to use decomposed granite (for a smoother surface) or class II base (for better compaction).

Comfort comes from using the right type and amount of infill – knowing when to use a rubber coated sand for weight and to achieve the appropriate fall test ratings – knowing when a crumb rubber infill may be appropriate, etc. Don’t be deceived by artificial lawn installers that claim their artificial lawn products don’t need infill or that they can use silica sand – these are simply cost savings efforts on their part and will cost you more money down the road when you need repair work on your artificial lawn.

We strive to match the look, feel, and performance of a natural putting green and or a natural grass with every step of our installation process using our system. Need a break right to left? Want a part of your putting green elevated? We work with you to design and install every break and every hole placement!

To understand our installation process we have provide an overview of an artificial lawn installation.

Artificial Turf Installation Measurement

• Measure the length and width of the artificial lawn installation area in feet - ensuring that the grain faces the same direction, preferably facing the viewer’s perspective.

Artificial Lawn Installation Preparation

• Call your local utility department to survey the artificial lawn installation area.

• If an irrigation system exists, cap it off.

• Materials used include:

• Seaming Tape/Seaming Iron

• Sod Staples (flat head)

• 5” Steel Nails

• 1.75”x1.75” Framing Board

• 12” Plastic Stakes

• Filter Fabric/Weed Barrier

• Infill material

Artificial Lawn Installation: Base Preparation and Installation

• Frame the perimeter using 1.75” x1.75” plastic/bendable framing boards attaching the framing board to 12” plastic stakes every 3’.

• Allow the artificial grass to lay in direct sunlight for 2 hours prior to installation.

• Remove 3.5" of soil in the artificial turf installation area – sloping for proper drainage.

• Slightly dampen the bare earth and compact it with a plate tamper.

• Install a layer of weed barrier over the bare earth and trim as necessary using sod staples to hold it in place.

• Spread the base evenly throughout the artificial lawn installation area.

• Compact the base.

Artificial Lawn Installation: Installing your Artificial Grass

• Install the artificial grass – using seaming tape and sod staples along all seams.

• Trim the grass to fit against the border.

• Secure the grass to the base by inserting sod stapes every 1’ along the perimeter of the grass, 1/2” away from the border and sod staples every square yard throughout the rest of the grass.

Artificial Lawn Installation: Infill

• Evenly distribute infill material over the grass.

• Power broom the surface to evenly distribute infill material.

• Artificial Lawn Installation: Post Installation Care

• Periodically, brush your artificial grass using a push broom. This will help stabilize the fibers, and keep the grass clean. Any spills that occur can be cleaned using a mild detergent and water. A plastic leaf rake or leaf blower can be used to remove any debris or foliage.
