The SportScreen Golf Studio — Vanish LITE
Sturdy, Durable, Reliable — Golf Made Easy!
The hybrid-retractable SportScreen built for sloped and vaulted ceilings. Front rolls up, sides pin back, mounts with just 2 anchor points — the simplest SportScreen to install and live with.
Hybrid-retractable
Front Rolls Up. Sides Pin Back.
The Vanish LITE is the hybrid-retractable SportScreen: the front impact screen fully rolls up, and the side curtains slide along tracks and pin back rather than fully retracting. You reclaim the swing space in seconds.
It's the simplest SportScreen to live with day to day — and the easiest to install.
2-point mounting
Made For Sloped & Vaulted Ceilings
Unlike the full Vanish Series, the LITE mounts to a single surface with just 2 anchor points — so it works with sloped, vaulted, or non-standard ceilings where a 4-point ceiling mount won't fit.
Fewer anchors also means a faster, easier install and simpler relocation.
Construction-grade screen
A Real Impact Screen — Not A Backdrop
The LITE ships with a construction-grade impact screen and rear support membrane that absorb shots, cut noise, and keep projection sharp — built to take real golf swings, not just look the part.
Built To Take Real Shots
The Vanish LITE ships with a construction-grade impact screen and rear membrane — engineered for daily golf, not a repurposed photo backdrop. Backed by a 1-year limited warranty.
Construction-grade screen + rear membrane
Bonded layers absorb high-velocity impacts, cut noise, and hold a flat, sharp projection surface. 1-year limited warranty.
Single-layer commodity screen
Thin single-layer screens stretch, ripple, and wear quickly under real golf impacts — and often blow light through for a washed-out image.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the LITE different from the full Vanish Series?
The full Vanish Series is fully retractable (front + both sides) and ceiling-mounts with 4+ anchor points on level joists. The Vanish LITE is hybrid-retractable — the front rolls up while side curtains pin back — mounts to a single surface with just 2 anchor points (works on sloped ceilings), has a 3 ft side depth, and starts lower in price.
Will the LITE work with my sloped or vaulted ceiling?
Yes — that's exactly what it's designed for. Its 2-point single-surface mount fits sloped, vaulted, and non-standard ceilings where a 4-point level-joist mount won't work.
What ceiling height do I need?
The Vanish LITE requires 108"–124" (about 9–10.3 ft). Standard 9 ft residential ceilings work for all LITE sizes.
Hand crank or motorized remote?
Both are available on every LITE size. Hand crank is simple and maintenance-free; the motorized Remote Control version deploys at the press of a button.
Does it work for left-handed golfers?
Yes — fully compatible with right- and left-handed golfers.
What's included, and what do I still need?
Included: impact screen, rear support membrane, two side screens (3 ft depth), ceiling panel, corner pieces, baffles, mounting brackets and hardware. You'll still need a launch monitor, computer/software, projector, and hitting mat. Browse our packages for a complete setup.

What SportScreen Owners Are Saying
Love the new Vanish Lite Retractable Enclosure
Love the new Vanish Lite Retractable Screen. Very thorough instructions are included and easy to follow for installation.
If you are looking for a retractable screen for your golf simulator, this is a great option!
Convenience for the average person
The convinient design allows for the space to be used for different reasons, this is a big deal when it comes to people not having that dedicated space to put a simulator into
