The length of the Mini Bowling Lane is about 13 meters. The fairway board area is about 7.6 meters. And the approach area is about 2.44 meters. The equipment maintenance area behind the lane requires a minimum of 1 meter.

We have four types of bowling lanes. The width of the 4 standard bowling lanes is 6.9 meters. The width of the 2 duckpin bowling lanes is 3.48 meters. The width of the four mini bowling lanes is 5.66 meters. The width of a single children's bowling lane is 0.9 meters.

We have a total of four different sizes of bowling lanes. The length of a standard bowling lane is 84 feet. The length of Duckpin Bowling Lane is 39.4 feet.  The Mini Bowling Lane size is 39.7 feet. The size of the children's bowling lanes is 14.1 feet. In addition, the length of our standard bowling lanes and duckpin bowling lanes can be customized.

Flying specializes in manufacturing brand new bowling equipment. All the equipment, fairway boards, balls, and pins we provide are brand new. Including the scoring and management systems of our bowling lanes, they are all unique and developed by ourselves.

A bowling ball return system uses a combination of gravity, belts, and sometimes lifts to bring your ball back to you after your roll. Here's a breakdown of the typical process:

1. Ball Exit: After rolling down the lane, the ball exits into a channel at the end. This channel might have a slight incline to help guide the ball towards the return mechanism.

2. Transfer Tray: The ball rolls into a shallow tray or trough. This tray might have a diverter at the end to ensure balls from adjacent lanes don't collide.

3. Elevator or Incline (optional): In some setups, the ball might be lifted to a higher level before entering the return system. This creates a steeper decline for the ball to travel down, helping it gain momentum.

4. Belt Conveyor: The ball reaches a conveyor belt with a textured surface to prevent slipping. This belt carries the ball up an incline.

5. Gravity Channel: Once at the top of the incline, the ball is released onto a long, U-shaped channel. Gravity takes over, pulling the ball down through the channel.

6. Ball Deflector: At the end of the channel, there might be a deflector that diverts the ball slightly towards your lane. This ensures the ball ends up in the correct return slot.

7. Ball Return Tray: The ball finally reaches a tray or cradle positioned in front of your lane, ready for your next roll.

Here are some additional points to note:

• Modern systems might have sensors to detect the presence of a ball and activate the return mechanism accordingly.
• Some higher-end systems use quieter materials and designs to minimize noise during ball return.

The cost of building a bowling alley can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including:

• Number of lanes: This is obviously a big one. A single lane will cost much less than a whole alley with multiple lanes.
• Location: Building costs are higher in some areas than others. Building in a more populated area will likely be more expensive than a rural area.
• New construction vs. renovation: If you are adding a bowling alley to an existing building, you'll likely save money compared to building a whole new facility.
• Features: Do you want a high-end bowling alley with all the latest technology and amenities? Or are you looking for a more basic setup? The more features you want, the more expensive it will be.

Here's a rough ballpark of what you might expect to pay:

• Home bowling alley: A single lane for your house could cost anywhere from $75,000 to $175,000.
• Small commercial alley: A few lanes in a commercial setting could run from $150,000 to $600,000.
• Large commercial alley: A full-sized bowling alley with many lanes could cost millions of dollars.

If you're serious about opening a bowling alley, it's important to consult with a professional contractor or bowling alley equipment supplier to get a more accurate estimate for your specific project. They can take into account all of the factors mentioned above and give you a more realistic idea of the costs involved.

The cost of a single bowling lane falls between $75,000 and $80,000 for a standard lane. Here's a breakdown considering different factors:

New vs. Used:

New lanes naturally cost more than used ones.
Features:

Automatic scoring systems or other customizations can increase the price.
Home vs. Commercial:

Lane installations for homes may cost slightly more to account for special adjustments.

It's important to note that this is just the lane itself.  The total cost of building an entire bowling alley will include additional costs for  installation, surrounding infrastructure, and any amenities you include.
