The Beaumont 3707 is a real workhorse. It’s one of those bits of kit you buy and then forget about, because it does its job perfectly without any drama.

  • Pros: The build quality is excellent; it feels solid and  easily survives drops onto hard floors.
  • Cons: In very heavy rain, water can collect inside if not emptied promptly.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Ferryman's Inn, a popular riverside pub in Norwich, was constantly struggling with ash and  napkins blowing off their exposed terrace tables, making the area look untidy. They needed a robust, windproof solution that could withstand the elements and  constant use.

"We replaced all our old open ashtrays with these Beaumont models, and  the difference was immediate. The terrace looks so much cleaner, and  our staff aren't constantly chasing debris across the decking. They're tough, they look smart, and  they just work."

David Mitchell – General Manager

The change resulted in a noticeable improvement in the terrace's appearance and  reduced outdoor cleaning tasks by an estimated 20% during peak service.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Simply unbox the ashtray and  separate the top and  bottom sections.
  • Give both parts a quick wipe with a clean, damp cloth before first use.
  • Place them on your outdoor tables, ensuring they are on a stable, flat surface.
  • There's no assembly required – it's ready to use straight out of the box.

Keeping It Going

  • Empty the ashtray regularly to maintain hygiene and  prevent overflow.
  • For a quick clean, wipe with a damp cloth and  a mild detergent.
  • The tough melamine material is non-porous and  resists stains and  odours.
  • For a deep clean, it can be safely washed in a commercial glasswasher or dishwasher.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Ashtray

Not sure what to look for? Here are a few tips to help you choose the best ashtray for your business.

Location, Location, Location

Is it for a sheltered patio or a windy rooftop bar? For any outdoor space, a windproof design is non-negotiable to keep your premises looking tidy.

Material Matters

Melamine is a fantastic choice for commercial use. It's shatterproof, lightweight, and  easy to clean, unlike glass which can break or metal which can rust.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for models that come apart easily. A simple two-part design, like this one, makes emptying and  washing much faster for your staff during busy shifts.

Consider Capacity

A 146mm windproof table ashtray offers a good balance, providing enough capacity for a small group without taking up too much table space.

Match Your Style

A simple, neutral colour like black is a safe bet. It looks professional, hides minor marks, and  fits in with almost any style of outdoor furniture and  décor.

Why a Simple Lid Makes All the Difference

Ever wondered how a 'windproof' ashtray actually works its magic? It's not just a lid; it's about clever design. The Beaumont ashtray features a removable top section with a specially shaped opening. This design creates a barrier that stops wind from swirling inside the main container where the ash is collected.

Think of it like a bottle neck. Wind can blow across the top, but it can't get inside to whip everything up again. Ash and  cigarette ends are dropped through the opening and  fall safely into the protected base. This means even on a blustery day, the contents stay put, preventing mess from scattering across your tables and  floor. It’s a simple piece of physics that provides a huge practical benefit for any outdoor commercial space.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Bars: Ideal for keeping beer gardens, patios, and  designated smoking areas tidy and  presentable for patrons.
  • Cafés & Bistros: Perfect for outdoor pavement seating, ensuring a clean environment for all your customers.
  • Hotels & Venues: A smart, durable solution for outdoor terraces, balconies, and  entrance smoking zones.
  • Workplace Break Areas: Keep your outdoor staff breakout areas clean with this heavy duty melamine ashtray.
