The Ultimate Source Engine Sandbox
Garry's Mod isn't just a game; it's a massive platform driven by its community. Whether you're running a serious DarkRP economy, a chaotic Trouble in Terrorist Town (TTT) match, or just building massive physics contraptions in Sandbox, you need a server that can handle the load.
Hosting a private or community GMod server gives you full control. Public servers heavily restrict your props, tools, and scripts. With your own dedicated server, you install the exact Workshop addons you want, configure custom Lua scripts, mount CSS textures, and build your own unique community from the ground up.
Physics Sandbox
Roleplay (DarkRP)
Steam Workshop
Custom Game Modes
Easily switch between DarkRP, TTT, Prop Hunt, Murder, and hundreds of other community-created gamemodes with a simple config edit.
Steam Workshop Support
Simply paste your Steam Workshop Collection ID into the panel. The server automatically downloads your addons and forces clients to sync them.
Advanced Lua Scripting
Get full FTP access to modify gamemodes, tweak addon code, and install admin mods like ULX and ULib exactly the way you want.

Who supplies the service?
ZAP-Hosting supplies the service, processes your order and manages the hosting account. These are affiliate links: Normandin Systems may receive a commission from qualifying orders. You can contact us for help understanding your options; any separate setup or development work needs an agreed scope.
What will I pay?
Check the provider’s checkout for the current currency, taxes, resources, billing period and renewal total. Enter NormandinSystems-a-1588 if the checkout accepts a voucher; the provider confirms whether a discount applies. This page does not promise a fixed price or discount.
When will it be ready?
Availability and provisioning depend on the selected product, region, payment checks and capacity. Check the current delivery information with ZAP-Hosting before ordering.
What is included in support?
Review the provider’s support coverage and response terms for your plan. Running your software, configuring mods, maintaining backups and resolving application issues may require your own administration or separately agreed help.
Are performance and uptime guaranteed?
Performance depends on the plan, application, settings, load and network conditions. This page does not promise zero lag or a fixed uptime. Review any service commitment and exclusions in the provider’s current terms.
Can I import a save, add mods or change resources?
The answer depends on the product and software version. Confirm supported imports, file access, mod or plugin compatibility and upgrade options for the exact plan before ordering. Keep a backup before changing your setup.
