A Quick Guide to New Bowling Alley Construction for Your Business


You can see many bowling alleys nowadays. In fact, there’s always a new bowling alley construction somewhere, at any given time. This is probably because businesses can see that bowling has become a timeless sport and pastime. From the time it was introduced decades ago until this very day, people from different generations flock to bowling alleys to relax and spend some quality time together in a game of bowling.

No matter what the occasion, bowling alleys will always be there for people from all ages. With a market this big, a bowling center is undoubtedly a very lucrative business.

If you are thinking of putting up a new bowling alley as your next business venture, here are a few things to think about before you decide to have a new bowling alley construction:

  1. Look for a good location.

Whether you plan on constructing it inside an existing building or you plan on putting up the building itself, make sure that it is in a place which has high visibility, easily accessible, and with a good spot for your signage. This way, people be able to identify and be aware of your new business immediately.

Make sure to check your location for a good parking space, too. You’ll get less people to come to your place if you give them a hard time parking their cars.

  1. Think of a themed interior.

Instead of giving your customers the traditional bowling alley feels, think of some new themes that will excite people to visit your place. Make it upscale, modern, and colorful. Use lights, paint, and furniture to give them a different experience with the same game they have been playing for years.

  1. Step-up your bowling game.

Revolutionize the sport by setting up automated bowling scoring systems. These innovations give the traditional game of bowling a more modern feel, with a digital scoring grid. Giving your customers a bowling scoring system this easy to comprehend and use will surely keep them coming back to you. You can even use these screens for advertising purposes and generate additional revenue.

  1. Think of additional facilities to put up.

Give your customers the complete entertainment experience by including other entertainment options in your new bowling alley construction plan. Study your target market and find out what other facilities you can put up that they can enjoy and bring in more profit for you. You might consider arcades, bumper cars, and vending machines if you want to attract families. On the other hand, you might want to put up a bar, nightclub, and billiard tables if you want to attract upscale millennials.

Once you have gone over this checklist and thought things through, you are ready to start your new bowling alley construction! Deciding upon these factors should give your bowling alley a unique identity. Remember that in this day and age, people do not just go to bowling alleys to strike down some pins, but to have a great time with their family and friends as well. Just give them a unique and satisfactory experience, and they will surely keep coming back.

Maintenance being one of the major concerns while setting up bowling alleys, you will need to make the right choices. Here are some quick tips for you to set up maintenance free bowling alleys.

Before signing up with them you will need to make sure that your service provider makes use of the best equipment. Have all your questions on the quality of the equipment answered before you sign up.

Second major reason why frequent maintenance issues erupt with bowling alleys is improper installation of the equipment. It is not enough to buy the best in class bowling equipment but it is equally important to have the bowling equipment installed professionally. It is your responsibility to therefore find an experienced and reputed bowling equipment manufacturer to take care of your installations.

Thirdly, you will need to sign up only with companies that are ready to provide you with ongoing maintenance service and not with companies that just sell the equipment but provide no further support so that if at all there should be any problem, you will know where to go for help.

Fourthly, do not choose your service provider just based on the quote that they give but take all the above factors into account and let the cost be the last factor that you compare. This is where most people make mistakes. They first rush to compare quotes without taking into account the other important factors. If you want to set up maintenance free bowling alleys, do not settle for substandard bowling equipment or for a mediocre service provider. It is best to invest in top quality products that are less likely to have frequent maintenance issues rather than going for cheap equipment that will cost you more money down the line.

It is best to get your service provider visit the place where you would like to install the bowling alley and establish the feasibility. This again will go a long way in avoiding unnecessary confusions during the installation process.

You will be able to enjoy the use of your bowling alley only if the entire system operates smoothly without any issues.
