Building a shooting range starts with decisions, and the concrete comes later. We help investors plan the technology before the drawings are finished: lane length, target retrieval systems, control software, lighting, sound, the order of spending and day-to-day operation. That goes for a new indoor or outdoor range, a container facility or an extension to an existing range.

Why work with us
01
We advise at the planning stage: the scope of the technology, what the building has to provide and a realistic order of spending. A correction on a drawing takes an hour. On site, the same correction takes weeks.
02
You can buy in stages. RangeTech grows phase by phase, and what already works stays in place.
03
A modern system draws customers to a commercial range and improves training for uniformed services.
Designing for the technology
Six questions we ask every investor. The answers go to the designer as technical guidelines.
01
25, 50 or 100 m, or lanes of different lengths in one building. Target retrieval systems run on lanes from 5 m, typically up to 500 m, and longer on request.
02
Panel rails above the lane, brackets and room for the Nucleus docking station at the end of the run. Nothing gets welded on site.
03
230 V along the lane, a control cabinet and a network for the firing point tablets and the control room. Put them in the design from the start.
04
A place from which the operator sees the whole facility and runs it from a tablet in RangeTech Master.
05
RangeTech Light and RangeTech Surround need brackets behind the baffle and cabling. Even if they arrive in a later phase, prepare for them now.
06
RangeTech Master links the permission to fire with ventilation, signalling and access control. Those installations need a connection point to the system.
Phasing
Basic or Nucleus target retrieval systems with control in RangeTech Master. The facility opens and starts earning.
RangeTech Light adds lighting scenarios. The same building, new kinds of training.
RotoTarget and RangeTech LOMAH put the result at the firing point and the targets inside scenarios. The range can now host competitions and qualification courses.
RangeTech Surround completes the battlefield simulation.
Lighting and rail layoutFormalities
You build a shooting range under national building regulations, to a design that accounts for ballistic requirements, and run it under range rules approved by the competent authority in that country. The rules differ between countries, so settle them with your designer at the concept stage. We handle the technology side: technical guidelines and device descriptions for the design documentation, specifications and funding applications.
Questions and answers
Yes. Target retrieval systems and control first, then reactive targets, lighting and sound. Every later element joins the same system, and nothing installed earlier has to be replaced.
You build the facility under the applicable national building regulations and run it under range rules approved by the competent authority. The details depend on the type of facility and where it stands, so settle them with your designer at the concept stage. We supply the technical part of the documentation.
As soon as a concept exists. Rail routing, power, network and mounting points are cheapest to arrange while the design is still being drawn, and they decide what the facility can offer later.
Yes. The devices can arrive in a second phase, but plan the brackets, baffles and cabling now, while they are cheapest to prepare.
Conversation
Tell us about the facility you are planning: number of firing points, lane length, type of shooting. We will advise on the scope, the phases and the budget for the technology.
