  • Con: It includes eyelets, but you'll need your own screws and  wire for hanging.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Mill Pub in Canterbury needed a larger, more professional way to advertise its popular Sunday roast and  weekly quiz night, moving away from smaller, worn-out A-frame boards.

"We needed something smart, easy to update, and  big enough to be seen from across the bar. The Olympia wall chalkboard was the perfect fit. Our specials have never been clearer, and  the pine frame looks fantastic against the brickwork. It’s simple, but it works wonders."

Michael Davies – Landlord

Since installing the board, the pub has seen a noticeable uptick in engagement with weekly events and  a 15% increase in orders for their advertised specials.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Choose a well-lit, high-visibility location where your message will have the most impact.
  • Gently screw the two included eyelets into the top of the pine frame at your desired width.
  • Use appropriate wall plugs and  screws (not included) for your wall type (e.g., plasterboard, brick).
  • Hang the board using a sturdy cord or picture wire threaded through the eyelets.

Keeping It Going

  • For best results, season the board before first use by rubbing the side of a piece of chalk over the entire surface and  wiping it clean.
  • Clean regularly with a damp cloth or a dedicated chalkboard cleaner (like Y994) to prevent chalk dust build-up.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemical cleaners which can damage the melamine surface.
  • If using liquid chalk pens, always check they are suitable for non-porous surfaces.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Chalkboard

Not sure which board is right for your space? Here are a few things to consider.

Size and  Placement

Measure your wall space first. This 600 x 800mm board is great for main menus, but a smaller size might suit a tight spot by the till.

Frame Style

The pine frame on this board offers a classic, rustic look. Consider if this matches your décor or if a modern, frameless style would be a better fit.

Surface Material

A melamine surface (like this one) is far superior to painted MDF as it resists staining and  ghosting, making it a wise investment for long-term, daily use.

Chalk vs. Chalk Pens

Decide what you'll write with. While traditional chalk offers a classic feel, liquid chalk pens provide sharper lines and  brighter colours. Ensure your board is compatible.

Readability

Think about where you'll hang the board. Is there enough light? Will customers be able to read it from a distance? A larger board helps ensure clarity.

Why a Melamine Surface Makes All the Difference

Ever tried to clean an old chalkboard only to be left with a cloudy, grey ghost of yesterday's menu? That’s often because it’s just painted MDF. This Olympia board uses a melamine surface, and  it’s a huge upgrade. Think of it like the durable, non-porous laminate on a quality kitchen worktop. It's a tough, resin-sealed layer that’s bonded to the wood core. This means chalk and  liquid chalk markers sit on top of the surface, rather than sinking into it. When you wipe it, everything comes off cleanly, leaving a rich, black canvas ready for your next masterpiece. It’s this feature that ensures your board looks brand new for longer, resisting the scratches and  stains of daily use in a busy commercial environment.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Cafés and  Coffee Shops: Perfect for displaying daily coffee blends, cake selections, and  promotional deals right by the counter.
  • Restaurants and  Pubs: Ideal as a restaurant chalkboard sign for the soup of the day, guest ales, or a full specials menu.
  • Farm Shops & Greengrocers: A brilliant way to showcase seasonal produce, local suppliers, and  special offers with a rustic feel.
  • Retail Boutiques & Salons: Great for welcoming clients, announcing sales, or sharing social media handles with a personal, stylish touch.
