Bowling lanes — the surface everything happens on.

Customization

Nobody customizes lanes like Brunswick

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.

Colorfull

60+ colours & wood grains

Extensive colour and wood-grain options with glow effects — a unique environment that sets you apart from competitors.

Ultimate

Photographic & glow designs

An exclusive process applies photographic images, logos and designs that glow under black light — endless possibilities.

Your brand

Logos on the approach

Print your center's logo, mascot or sponsors directly onto the approach — the first thing every bowler sees at the line, on every visit.

Custom lane logo — Area 53, Belgium
Custom lane logo — Artisan House, Kansas
Custom lane logo — Game Ranch, Mumbai

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

Why our lanes win

Built from the concrete up

Brunswick synthetic lanes installed by Valcke Bowling
On the lanes

Lanes that stay looking their best, night after night

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.

Components

Everything around the lane

Ball returns · hidden

Center Stage Subway

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.

Ball returns · above-floor

Center Stage Surface (Standard)

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 returns

Intellishield™ guarding

Ball Return Guarding System for safety and a clean, finished look.

Bumpers

Pinball Wizard™ & Bankshot™

Automatic (Pinball Wizard) and manual (Bankshot) bumper rails — keep every guest in the game.

Lighting

Nitro Division Lighting

LED division/capping lighting that frames each lane in colour.

Lighting

Nitro Pin Deck Lighting

Pin-deck lighting for that high-energy, glow-bowling finish.

Masking & trim

Lanescape™ masking, capping & trim

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.

Engineered in

Safety and durability, built into every component

Ball return · safety

8 infrared safety beams

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.

Bumpers · safety

Foot-detection bumper rails

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.

Capacity · comfort

Built around the bowler

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.

Works with

Combine your lanes with pinsetters, lighting, immersive games and Center Stage furniture for one complete bowling experience.
