On Cue 2005 Ltd has taken over our stock and they offer a full range of products and services to all table owners and players. After 39 years in the trade I am pleased that my customers can continue to expect expert and knowledgeable service.

Snooker and Pool tables is what our business is about - nothing else.  It is our passion! so you can be assured we are totally focused on achieving the best outcome possible. 

Our standard range is listed below - but please remember - we make to order by customising a model to suit or working with you to build your unique table from start to finish.

How much space do I need?

Check the size of your room against the ‘Room size’ chart to see what space you need for each size of table.
 
Tip:We strongly recommend that you use a bedsheet or newspapers to lay out the footprint of your table in your room.  This gives you a very good’ visual’ of the table size.
 
Room Sizes for Tables
 
MINIMUM CLEAR AREA REQ’D TO USE A FULL LENGTH CUE

If you do not have quite enough space for the table you may consider having a shorter cue for some shots but this compromise can decrease your enjoyment significantly if you have to use the short cue often. Remember you need to allow for other items that may reduce the available space such as a fireplace or fixed fittings in the room, or an irregular shaped room. Also consider what other furniture you may want, your opponent probably needs somewhere to sit while you are sinking all the balls, and maybe a bar to celebrate your victory!

Standard installation* is included in pricing for all models except "Ranfurly" but we undertake delivery and installation anywhere in New Zealand.  Just contact us for details.
