Lairds AV
Kilmarnock-based Scottish smart-home and AV firm designing and installing bespoke home and club golf simulators across Edinburgh, Glasgow, Ayrshire, and Scotland.
About Lairds AV
Lairds AV (The Lairds Group) delivers custom golf simulator installations across Scotland from Marathon House in Kilmarnock — garage-minimal builds through full dedicated suites for homeowners, businesses, and golf clubs. Published club work includes the Broomieknowe Golf Club simulator room with projection, turf, and purposeful AV integration.
As a Scotland-native integrator, Lairds understands weather-driven indoor demand, club member workflows, and luxury residential automation (Lutron, cinema, whole-home control) that often surrounds a sim bay. Primary coverage is Edinburgh, Glasgow, Ayrshire, and surrounding regions with select Highlands projects — not a London crew flying in for a weekend.
Scottish garages and clubhouses still need swing height, 230V, and heating/insulation honesty for year-round use. Lairds’ useful hiring difference is local Scottish AV craft: home and club simulators finished by a Kilmarnock integrator who already speaks cinema and smart-home.
Skip Lairds AV if you need England-only South East coverage or pure DIY retail with no Scottish site presence. Choose them for Scottish homeowners and clubs who want a local AV specialist to design and install a finished golf simulator suite.
Decision checklist
Know before you hire
- Say home vs golf-club commercial traffic — member rooms need different durability
- Send garage or clubhouse photos with ceiling height and heating notes for Scottish winters
- Ask which launch-monitor brands they currently install and support in Scotland
- Name smart-home / cinema platforms (Lutron, etc.) if the bay must join whole-home control
- Confirm Highlands or remote travel logistics if outside the Central Belt
- Skip if you need an England garden-cabin manufacturer with no Scottish AV install

Practical guide
How to hire Lairds AV without scope surprises
Installation is local work in Kilmarnock, Scotland, UK. Treat the first call like a job interview — room photos, dimensions, and a clear scope beat brochure language.
Install-only vs design-build
Clarify whether Lairds AV assembles a kit you already bought, sources equipment, or owns finishes (turf, lighting, acoustics, millwork). Kit install and full lounge builds are different contracts. Get in writing who tensions the screen, who mounts the launch monitor, and who warrants calibration.
What to send before the quote
Photos, ceiling height, width, depth, electrical locations, and whether the room is a garage, basement, or new build. Note left/right-handed players and which launch monitor you want. Good teams quote faster when Lairds AV isn’t guessing from a one-line email.
Timeline, access, and aftercare
Ask about lead time, site-visit policy, dust/protection plans, and what happens if a sensor needs re-mounting later. For commercial or condo work, confirm insurance and building rules early — that’s where projects stall.
