Freestanding Whiteboards:
Mobile and Revolving Dry Wipe Boards

Freestanding whiteboards are tubular steel-framed dry wipe boards on lockable non-marking castors for full room mobility without wall fixing. Revolving models use a horizontal pivot axis to flip between two magnetic lacquered steel writing surfaces — loosen the side knob, flip to the fresh side, lock back in place. Sizes from portrait junior boards to 1800x1200mm landscape. Full-width pen tray at board base. Delivered flat-packed, assembly with included tools under 20 minutes. PO accepted from schools and NHS trusts.

A freestanding whiteboard eliminates the constraints of a fixed wall-mounted surface — bring the board to the team for a corridor huddle, move it to a different training room between sessions, use it as a temporary room partition in an open-plan space, or position it at the front of a temporarily converted space where there is no suitable wall available. The 360-degree revolving surface doubles the working area without doubling the floor footprint.

Our most popular freestanding whiteboards include the 1200x900mm revolving whiteboard for meeting rooms and training spaces, the 1500x1200mm revolving version for larger group sessions, and the 1800x1200mm landscape board for maximum writing area in open-plan and school hall environments. For paper-based mobile easels see our flipcharts and pads.

Double Surface

360-Degree Revolving for Instant Fresh Surface

Fill one side with notes, diagrams, or project plans. Loosen the side pivot knob, rotate the board 180 degrees on its horizontal axis, and lock back in place — an entirely fresh surface in under 10 seconds without erasing the previous content. The first side remains intact for reference while you continue on the reverse, effectively doubling the board's working capacity in the same floor footprint.

Magnetic Steel Surface on Both Faces

Both writing surfaces use magnetic lacquered steel — the same surface accepts dry wipe markers and holds printed diagrams, blueprints, and safety notices with standard whiteboard magnets. This converts the board from a pure writing surface into a mobile information display that can hold physical documents alongside written notes, making it the practical choice for NHS ward briefings, site safety meetings, and project management sessions.

Lockable Castors for Stable Writing

The heavy-duty steel frame sits on four smooth-running non-marking castors suitable for hard floors, carpet, and sports hall surfaces. Two or four castors lock down by foot pressure to keep the board completely stationary during use — a board that shifts while you are writing is unusable. Unlock, move to the new position, lock again. The combination of the wide tubular steel wheelbase and locked castors provides the rigidity of a wall-mounted board in a portable format.

Up to 1800x1200mm for Group Visibility

Our 1800x1200mm landscape board provides a writing area large enough for complex system diagrams, mathematical workings, and project timelines visible to a group of 20 or more from a seated position in a training room or school hall. The wide 1800mm landscape format allows multiple people to write simultaneously at different sections without crowding each other at the board.

Mobile Partition and Room Divider

The large 1800mm wide boards function as effective temporary room dividers in open-plan offices, school halls, and large training facilities — screening off a section of the space to create a temporary meeting or breakout area while simultaneously providing a functional writing surface on both faces. A single large whiteboard replaces both a privacy screen and a writing board in temporary space configurations.

Full-Width Pen Tray and Flat-Pack Delivery

The integrated full-width pen tray at the base of the board keeps markers, erasers, and magnets accessible during presentations without a separate surface. Delivered flat-packed with assembly tools included — attach uprights to wheelbase, slot board into pivot points, typically under 20 minutes for first assembly. Purchase Orders accepted from schools, colleges, universities, NHS trusts, and public sector organisations with 30-day credit terms.

Meeting Room, Training Space or Open-Plan Office?

For standard meeting rooms and temporary training setups where one or two people write for a group of 6 to 12, the 1200x900mm or 1500x1200mm revolving boards provide the best balance of writing area and floor footprint. For school halls, large training rooms, and open-plan office brainstorming sessions with groups of 15 or more, the 1800x1200mm board provides the width for simultaneous multi-person use and partition capability.

For Meeting Rooms and Agile Offices

Our 1200x900mm revolving whiteboard is the standard for small meeting rooms, glass-walled conference pods, and agile workspace clusters where a wall-mounted board is not practical. The revolving mechanism provides effectively 2400x900mm of working surface in a footprint that fits beside a standard meeting table without blocking a walkway.

For Training Rooms and NHS Wards

Our 1500x1200mm revolving whiteboard is the standard for temporary training rooms, NHS ward briefing areas, and teaching spaces where the board is moved between rooms between sessions. The magnetic surface accepts printed ward round sheets, safety briefings, and procedure diagrams alongside written notes. PO accepted from NHS trusts on 30-day credit terms.

For School Halls and Open-Plan Spaces

Our 1800x1200mm revolving whiteboard suits school hall teaching sessions, large training events, and open-plan office areas where the board also serves as a temporary space divider. The 1800mm width allows 2 to 3 people to write simultaneously and is visible to a group of 20 or more from a standard seated classroom distance.

Workspace Agility:
The Displaysense Advantage

Displaysense is a trusted UK supplier with nearly 50 years of experience equipping schools, offices, and NHS facilities with writing surfaces. Our freestanding whiteboards use reinforced tubular steel frames that prevent the wobbling that affects lighter alternatives during active writing — providing the rigidity of a wall-mounted board with the mobility of a wheeled unit. We work extensively with the public sector and accept Purchase Orders from schools, colleges, universities, and NHS trusts.

How stable are freestanding whiteboards when writing?
Our freestanding whiteboards use reinforced tubular steel frames with a wide wheelbase and lockable castors. Once the castors are locked by foot pressure, the board is completely stationary — the wide tubular steel frame resists the lateral force applied during normal writing without flexing or wobbling. The board pivot also locks independently with its own knob to prevent the writing surface from rotating while in use. The combination of locked castors, wide wheelbase, and locked pivot provides stability comparable to a wall-mounted board.
What sizes of freestanding whiteboard are available?
Our most popular landscape revolving sizes are 1200x900mm for standard meeting rooms, 1500x1200mm for larger training and teaching spaces, and 1800x1200mm for maximum writing area and room divider use in school halls and open-plan offices. We also stock portrait junior board formats for smaller spaces, corridor positions, and individual use. Check individual product specifications for exact board dimensions and overall unit height with the base and castors included.
Can freestanding whiteboards be used as room dividers?
Yes. The 1800x1200mm landscape boards are wide enough to effectively screen off sections of open-plan offices, school halls, and large training spaces to create temporary breakout areas. The revolving board provides a functional writing surface on both faces of the partition simultaneously — visitors on one side and the presenter on the other can each use their respective face. This dual function as partition and writing surface makes large freestanding whiteboards particularly efficient for temporarily converted spaces.
Can I project onto a freestanding whiteboard?
Standard gloss lacquered steel whiteboard surfaces reflect overhead lighting and projector light, creating hot spots that reduce the readability of projected content. For mixed write-and-project use, angle the revolving board slightly downward using the pivot adjustment to deflect overhead light away from the viewer's line of sight. Alternatively, look for models specifying a semi-matt or projection-friendly surface in the product description. For dedicated presentation projection, a proper projection screen is the more effective solution.
How do I clean a freestanding whiteboard?
For daily cleaning after use: dry-wipe with the supplied or standard whiteboard eraser immediately after the session before the ink sets. For weekly deep cleaning: use a specialist whiteboard cleaning spray with a soft cloth to remove any marker residue and restore the full writing quality. For "ghosting" — faint marks from previous writing visible through new content — use a whiteboard restoration cleaner or a small amount of isopropyl alcohol on a soft cloth, followed by a clean water wipe to remove residue. Never use abrasive pads or standard glass cleaners on the lacquered steel surface.
Are freestanding whiteboards easy to assemble?
Yes. Our freestanding whiteboards are delivered flat-packed for safe transit and passage through standard doorways. Assembly involves attaching the vertical uprights to the castor wheelbase, then slotting the whiteboard panel into the pivot brackets — typically under 20 minutes for first assembly with the Allen key or spanner supplied. The revolving mechanism requires no additional tools. Once assembled, the unit does not need to be disassembled for routine repositioning — lock the castors, move to the new location, lock again.
Do you accept Purchase Orders from schools and NHS trusts?
Yes. We work extensively with the public sector and accept official Purchase Orders from state schools, academies, colleges, universities, NHS trusts, and other public sector organisations on 30-day credit terms. Contact our team to register your organisation for a trade account. We also offer volume discounts for large orders covering multiple boards for school hall fit-outs, training room programmes, and NHS facility refurbishments in a single consolidated order.
