Article Overview
The Quest headsets need to define a safe area for VR. This is called a boundary. A minimum of six feet by six feet is recommended. A new boundary is required for each new space where the headset is used. The headset may retain previously used boundaries if it recognizes the space.
How to Set Up a Boundary
- Put on the headset and follow the on-screen prompt for a suggested boundary.
- Wait while the headset automatically detects the floor and creates a virtual fence.
- If needed, select Choose Your Own Boundary and adjust the fence to better match the space.

Boundaries can be updated anytime from the Boundary tab in the Quick Settings menu.
Note: If the training space is too small, the headset will suggest a stationary boundary. If a stationary boundary is selected, enough space should remain to fully extend both arms in all directions without contacting nearby objects. For the best experience, it is recommended to use a Room Scale Boundary if possible.
