Wall Mounted Chalkboards: Hanging Blackboard Signs & Menu Boards
Transform your walls into dynamic displays. Displaysense offers the UK's premier range of wall mounted chalkboards. Whether you need a large pub blackboard for listing daily specials, a stylish cafe menu board, or a functional family organiser for the kitchen, our collection combines durability with premium aesthetics.
Available in a variety of styles from rustic wooden framed blackboards to sleek frameless panels, our boards are designed for high-contrast visibility. Compatible with both traditional chalk and modern liquid chalk pens, these hanging chalkboard signs allow you to update messages instantly—perfect for the fast-paced hospitality sector.
Easy-Clean Surface
No ghosting. Our boards use High-Pressure Laminate (HPL) surfaces. Unlike cheap painted wood, HPL is non-porous, meaning markers sit on top. This allows you to wipe it clean effortlessly with a damp cloth without leaving grey stains.
Solid Wood Frames
Premium finish. Our framed boards are crafted from sustainable solid wood, not plastic. Available in Dark Oak, Teak, or Black stain, they provide an authentic, rustic look ideal for traditional pubs and bistros.
Magnetic Options
Dual functionality. Select models feature a magnetic steel backing. This allows you to use the board as a notice area, attaching printed rotas, receipts, or photos with magnets alongside your handwritten notes.
Versatile Mounting
Any orientation. Most of our large blackboards come with fixing kits (D-rings) that allow you to hang them in either Portrait or Landscape orientation to suit your wall space perfectly.
Large Format Sizes
Maximum impact. We stock sizes ranging from small A4 kitchen boards up to massive 1200mm x 900mm menu boards. These larger sizes are perfect for listing full menus behind bars or counters.
Frameless & Shapes
Modern style. For a contemporary look, choose our precision-cut frameless chalkboards. We also offer fun shapes like teapots, hearts, and animals, great for themed cafes and children's areas.
The Displaysense Advantage: Commercial Grade
Displaysense is a UK Manufacturer and supplier. We understand that a smudged or stained blackboard looks unprofessional.
That is why our wall mounted chalkboards are built with superior writing surfaces designed for daily cleaning. Whether for a Michelin-star restaurant or a busy family kitchen, we guarantee a surface that stays black and keeps your writing bright.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best way to clean a chalkboard?
Use a damp microfibre cloth or a specialist chalkboard cleaning spray. Avoid harsh chemicals. For stubborn "ghosting" from old pens, a 'magic eraser' sponge works wonders on our HPL surfaces.
Can I use liquid chalk pens?
Yes, highly recommended. Liquid chalk pens create crisp, opaque lines that are far easier to read than dusty stick chalk. They wipe off easily from our non-porous boards.
How do I mount them to the wall?
Most framed boards come with D-rings on the back for hanging on screws or picture hooks. Frameless boards often have pre-drilled holes for screwing directly into the wall (screws usually included).
Are they magnetic?
Some models are. Look for "Magnetic" in the product title. These boards have a steel sheet behind the writing surface, allowing you to use magnets to hold notes or photos.
Can I hang them outdoors?
Only if specified. Standard indoor boards may warp in the rain. For exterior walls, please choose from our Outdoor Chalkboards range which features treated wood and exterior-grade panels.
Do you offer custom sizes?
We stock a huge range of sizes up to 1200mm x 900mm which covers most needs. For very large projects or bespoke shapes, please contact our sales team to discuss custom manufacturing.
What is the difference between HPL and painted wood?
HPL (High-Pressure Laminate) is a synthetic, non-porous surface that is smoother and more durable than painted wood. It resists scratching and staining much better than cheaper painted alternatives.
Are they suitable for kitchens?
Yes. They are perfect for meal planning, shopping lists, or family messages. Our frameless or slim-framed boards offer a neat, modern look for home interiors.
Can I hang them in landscape?
Yes. The D-rings on the back of our framed boards can usually be repositioned, or there are multiple fixing points, allowing for both portrait (vertical) and landscape (horizontal) hanging.
Do you offer bulk discounts for pubs?
Yes. We supply many of the UK's largest pub chains. Contact us for trade pricing if you are looking to refit multiple venues with new menu boards.
