TruTruss XT ™
TruTruss XT™ is a commercial-grade modular truss system engineered to solve the inefficiencies of traditional wood framing in golf and sports simulation environments. Designed around speed, accuracy, and repeatability, TruTruss XT allows operators to build consistent bays faster, scale across multiple locations, and recover capital when leases end.
WHY WE BUILT THIS
Golf simulator operators were losing time and money framing every bay from scratch using 2×4 lumber. Install quality varied by contractor, permitting slowed openings, and framed structures became stranded assets when leases expired.
TruTruss XT™ was developed to create a repeatable, fixture-style framing system that installs faster, stays square and plumb by design, and can be disassembled and reused across locations.
WHO IT’S FOR
Commercial golf simulator operators
Multi-location and franchise concepts
Leased retail and entertainment spaces
Training facilities and sports performance centers
Installers seeking faster, more predictable builds
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
TruTruss XT™ is a 4” × 4” square aluminum truss system that assembles using connectors, pins, and R-clips. The system is designed to support impact screens, enclosure finishes, ceiling elements, projectors, radar units, and downstream trades such as electrical and flooring.
The system can be installed freestanding or mechanically anchored and is engineered for repeatability across bays and locations.

Reduces installation time by approximately 50% versus traditional 2×4 framing (based on customer feedback)
Ensures bays are dimensionally identical and repeatable
Eliminates contractor guesswork
Simplifies coordination with turf, electrical, ceiling, and finish trades
- TruTruss XT is fully modular and designed for disassembly and relocation. Unlike permanent stick framing, the system becomes a reusable asset rather than sunk capital when a lease ends. In many municipalities, truss systems may be classified as fixtures rather than permanent structures (jurisdiction-dependent).

WHY TRUSIMSYSTEMS
TruSim Systems designs and manufactures modular infrastructure for golf and sports simulation environments. Our products are built for real-world installs, repeatability, and long-term ownership—not one-off builds.
We focus on systems that help operators scale faster, install cleaner, and protect capital.
