ADVANTAGES.
The following claims are made for the “STANDARD” Bowling Alleys, and have been sustained by use:
KEEP LEVEL. On account of the air space underneath them, which is ventilated by openings, the beds are less affected by moisture rising from the ground, cement, etc.
SURFACE. The bed being glued up of strips having rabbets cut on the sides, form a solid bed in which no piece can get loose, slip, raise up, or give any trouble.
FOUNDATIONS. Practically, no foundation is required; hence, a great saving is effected. The sills can be laid on a tar concrete or cement floor, or on piers or posts set three feet in the ground. All sills are supplied by us. As no part of the foundation is buried in cement, it lasts indefinitely.
WEAR AND TEAR. By long experience we have ascertained the best materials and forms to stand the severe usage of public and club alleys and by their use avoid the vexatious break-downs formerly so common on alleys.
EXPERIENCE. As we build a great many alleys our workmen are accustomed to the work and know its requirements. Our alleys are not experiments; they are tried and proved successes.
