Always wondered this , but could never find a good answer.. Say your gonna use synthetic lanes and a good pin setter?

The thought of you bulding a house is just scary.

But 2 lanes with good lanes pinsetters extra parts oil and oil machine and scorers. Would be roughly 75-100 grand depending on what you wanted.

A kegel Ion lane oiler is 36 grand from classic.

When my dad got a bowling alley priced for his 80 lane center with top of the line AMF stuff it was around 1.2-1.5 million for everything.

A 2-lane bowling alley will without question be more inexpensive than a complete, fully designed, 12-lane bowling alley, but the space, equipment, and design consideration are still costly. Just so you can gauge how much to budget, roughly speaking, how much is the cost for the development of a 12-lane bowling alley? It will certainly give you an approximate comparison, but with only two lanes, depending on where you live and the finer detail you wish, it can indeed be in the region of somewhere between $100,000 to $300,000. It will certainly be much better discussed with one expert who may give a realistic quotation upon hearing exactly about your plan.
