Brunswick does more lane customization than anyone in the industry — turn the lanes themselves into your brand statement. Match your colours, put your logo right on the approach, and make the surface unmistakably yours.
Extensive colour and wood-grain options with glow effects — a unique environment that sets you apart from competitors.
An exclusive process applies photographic images, logos and designs that glow under black light — endless possibilities.
Print your center's logo, mascot or sponsors directly onto the approach — the first thing every bowler sees at the line, on every visit.



A few examples — Brunswick does lane customization like nobody else; the possibilities are effectively limitless.

From classic wood-look to bold custom colours and full glow — the surface sets the tone of the whole center.
Every Valcke Bowling install pairs the lane surface with matching approach, capping and lighting for one cohesive, durable bowler's area.
The ball-return mechanism drops below the concourse, out of sight — leaving a clean, open, uncluttered settee area with more room to move. The premium look for social and modern venues.
The classic above-floor return, sitting at concourse level — a proven, cost-effective and easy-to-service choice. Available in Standard and Small Surface footprints to fit any layout and budget.
Ball Return Guarding System for safety and a clean, finished look.
Automatic (Pinball Wizard) and manual (Bankshot) bumper rails — keep every guest in the game.
LED division/capping lighting that frames each lane in colour.
Pin-deck lighting for that high-energy, glow-bowling finish.
Lanescape™ printed masking spans every two lanes: HD graphics, two-sided reversible panels, slide-up access to the pinsetters and glow lane numerals — with a video-masking option. Capping and trim complete a polished, durable bowler's area.

The ball lift shuts down automatically if a hand or object enters the opening — and restarts on its own once it's clear, with no staff needed. Kydex® edge protection resists ball and bowler wear.
All-metal automatic rails with 60 uprights per lane raise and lower for each bowler — and never drop by gravity, so a foot can't get caught under the rail.
Ball racks hold 12 balls plus a lower storage rack, at an ergonomic 15.5″ height for every age — with the motor safely out of reach under the lane.
Combine your lanes with pinsetters, lighting, immersive games and Center Stage furniture for one complete bowling experience.
