Two Working Surfaces on One Wall, Sized for the Whole Room
Some rooms need a board everyone can read from the back, and a board that does more than one job. The WBD2412 is our largest wall-mounted double-sided whiteboard, giving you a plain dry-wipe face for open writing and notices on one side and a printed grid face for structured charts, graphs and planning on the other. You decide which face points into the room when it goes up, so the board matches how the space is actually used. The dry-wipe finish resists ghosting, so writing lifts away cleanly day after day instead of leaving the grey shadows that make older boards look tired. Best suited for large classrooms, university lecture theatres and NHS wards where the same information has to stay clear and legible to a full room and gets updated many times a day.
Why This Board Works Where Others Fall Short
- A plain side and a grid side in one board: One face is open dry-wipe space for free writing, notices and quick instructions. The reverse carries a printed grid that keeps charts, timetables and graphs neatly aligned. You get two distinct working surfaces without paying for or hanging two separate boards on the wall.
- You choose which face shows: When the board is mounted you decide whether the plain side or the grid side faces into the room, so it suits how that particular space works in practice. A planning office can lead with the grid, a classroom with the open writing side, all from the same single product family.
- Ghosting-resistant dry-wipe finish: The writing surface is built to release marker ink fully when wiped, so it does not hold the faint shadows of yesterday's notes. The board keeps a clean, professional look through heavy daily use rather than greying and staining within months like budget boards do.
- Full-length pen ledge keeps you ready: A pen ledge runs the full width of the board to hold markers and erasers in one place. Nobody hunts for a working pen at the start of a lesson or a ward handover, and the kit stays with the board instead of wandering off around the room over time.
- Aluminium frame that holds its line: A slim aluminium frame protects the board edges, keeps the large surface flat and true against the wall, and gives a clean, neutral finish that suits a classroom, a lecture hall or a clinical corridor without drawing any attention to itself.
- Backed for five years: The board carries a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee covering materials and workmanship, so it is built to keep performing in the high-traffic environments it is made for rather than needing replacing after just a year or two of daily writing and wiping.
The Rooms This Board Was Made For
| Large Classrooms and Teaching Spaces | The wide surface stays readable from the back row, so a full class follows the same worked example or set of instructions at once without anyone straining to see. Lead with the plain side for everyday lessons, or turn the grid out for maths, graphs and structured work. |
| University and College Lecture Theatres | Enough surface for a complex diagram, a full proof or a whole term plan without cramming it in. The grid side keeps technical drawings and tables aligned, while the plain side handles open discussion and freeform notes during a session. |
| NHS Wards and Clinical Settings | Supports detailed ward planning, shift updates and patient-flow boards where information changes through the day and has to stay legible. The grid face keeps columns and rows neat for structured charts, and the surface wipes clean for constant updating. |
| Training Rooms and Workshops | A large shared surface for building out a process, running an exercise or capturing group input as it comes. Choose the grid face for structured frameworks or the plain face for open brainstorming, mounted to suit the room's main everyday use. |
| Offices and Planning Spaces | Project walls, sprint boards and team planning all benefit from the extra width and the grid side's alignment. The board stays fixed and visible so the plan lives on the wall rather than getting wiped and lost between meetings each week. |
| Reception, Corridors and Public Areas | A clean, framed surface for notices, schedules and wayfinding information in busy shared spaces. The neutral aluminium frame suits a professional setting, and the large face keeps messages visible to everyone passing through the area at a glance. |
Need the Same Board in a Smaller Size?
If the full width is more than your wall allows, the 1800mm wide double-sided whiteboard offers the same plain-and-grid design in a shorter frame. For tighter rooms again, the 1500mm wide version keeps both surfaces in a more compact format.

The Displaysense WBD2412 is a Double-Sided Whiteboard with an aluminium frame, the largest in the wall-mounted range. One side is a plain dry-wipe surface, the other a 25mm printed grid for structured writing and charts. Non-magnetic. Surface dimensions 2400mm W x 1200mm H. Wall-mounted, reversible so you choose which face shows when fitting. Ghosting-resistant finish, full-length pen ledge included, slim aluminium frame. 5-year manufacturer's guarantee. Suited to large classrooms, lecture theatres, NHS wards, training rooms and offices. Also available as the 1800mm WBD1812 and 1500mm WBD1215. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978.
A double-sided board is two writing surfaces fixed back to back in one frame, and on this board the two sides do deliberately different jobs. One face is left completely plain for open, freeform writing. The other is printed with a fine 25mm grid, a network of light squares that act as guidelines. The grid does not show through strongly in normal use, but it gives you something to write along, so columns stay straight, rows line up and a hand-drawn chart or graph looks ordered rather than wandering. Plain when you want freedom, gridded when you want structure, on the same fixed board.
Because this board is wall-mounted rather than mobile, the choice of which face shows is made once, at the point of fitting. You hang it with the side you use most facing the room. That is worth thinking through before installation: a maths department or a planning office will usually want the grid out, while a general classroom or a noticeboard role suits the plain side. The board is fixed, large and stable on the wall, which is exactly what you want for a surface people read all day, but it does mean the outward face is a setup decision rather than something you flip mid-lesson.
Ghosting is the faint grey shadow left behind when marker ink soaks into a cheap surface and will not fully wipe away. It is what makes an old whiteboard look permanently dirty. This board uses a dry-wipe finish engineered to release the ink completely, so a normal wipe takes the writing back to a clean surface. That matters most in the settings this board is built for, where the same area is written on and cleared many times a day. A surface that wipes truly clean keeps each new note legible instead of competing with the ghost of the last one.
The board is held in a slim aluminium frame, and that frame does more than tidy the edges. Aluminium is light for its strength, so a surface this large stays rigid and flat against the wall without a heavy timber surround, and it does not rust or warp in the warm, humid air of a busy ward or a packed lecture theatre. The frame caps the vulnerable board edges where knocks and peeling usually start, and a full-length pen ledge sits along the bottom rail to keep markers and erasers on the board itself. The result is a surface built to stay flat, clean and ready for years of daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Double-Sided Whiteboard
Q: What size room does a 2400 x 1200mm whiteboard suit?
A: A 2400mm wide surface is built for large rooms where people sit several metres back, such as full-size classrooms, lecture theatres and open-plan offices. Writing stays legible from the back row, which a smaller board cannot manage. For a standard meeting room or small classroom, a 1500mm or 1800mm width is enough.
Q: What is the point of the gridded side?
A: The 25mm grid turns one face into a precision surface. Anything that relies on alignment, timetables, seating plans, rotas, graphs or maths work, stays straight without ruling lines by hand. The plain reverse stays free for open writing, so you do not have to choose between freeform teaching and structured planning.
Q: Is the WBD2412 whiteboard magnetic?
A: No, the surface is a non-magnetic dry-wipe finish for writing only, so magnets will not hold. If pinning printed handouts matters more than the lower price, a magnetic board is the better choice. If it is mainly for writing, going non-magnetic keeps a surface this large affordable, which is why it suits kitting out several rooms.
Q: How does this compare to the smaller WBD1812?
A: Both share the same plain and 25mm grid faces, aluminium frame and pen ledge, so the only real difference is width. At 2400mm this is the widest option, made for the largest teaching and clinical spaces. The WBD1812 is 1800mm wide and fits rooms where the full span will not. Pick on room size and how far back the furthest viewer sits.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain with heavy daily use?
A: The dry-wipe finish is engineered to release marker ink fully, so it resists ghosting, the grey shadowing that makes budget boards look permanently dirty. Used with proper dry-wipe markers and wiped regularly, it clears back to clean even after constant updating. Avoid permanent markers and abrasive pads, which damage any dry-wipe surface.
Q: Is it suitable for NHS wards and clinical settings?
A: Yes. The large surface suits detailed ward planning, shift handovers, staff briefings and patient-flow boards, and the grid side keeps clinical charts neat and aligned. The finish clears cleanly for the constant updating these settings need, and the aluminium frame holds up in a warm, busy environment without rusting or warping.
Q: Can several people write on it at the same time?
A: Yes, and that is much of the reason for the width. A 2400mm face gives a whole group room to add to a plan or run a workshop together without anyone waiting for space to clear. It is a real difference from a standard 1200mm board, where two people writing at once quickly run out of room.
Q: Which side should face into the room?
A: Because the board is wall-mounted, you set the outward face once when fitting it, so choose the side that matches the room's main job. Maths, planning and clinical areas usually want the grid showing, while a general classroom or notice space suits the plain face. The second surface is always there if you remount it later.
Q: How is such a large board fixed safely to the wall?
A: Wall-mounting fittings are supplied, and the board fixes flat to a solid, load-bearing wall. Because of its size, mount it onto sound masonry or a reinforced surface using fixings suited to your wall type. Fitted correctly it stays rock solid, giving a surface people can lean on and write against firmly all day.
Q: Does the 5-year guarantee make it worth paying more than a budget board?
A: The 5-year guarantee covers materials and workmanship, and it reflects a real difference. Cheap boards tend to ghost, stain and warp within a year of heavy use, then need replacing. A guaranteed, ghosting-resistant surface in an aluminium frame keeps performing in high-traffic schools and wards, so it works out cheaper over its life.
Q: Can it be used outdoors or in a damp area?
A: No, it is designed for indoor use, in classrooms, lecture theatres, offices and clinical rooms. Outdoor use or a permanently damp area would let moisture reach the surface and fittings over time. For outdoor messaging, a purpose-built weather-resistant signage product is the right choice instead.
Q: Are markers and erasers included, or bought separately?
A: A full-length pen ledge is built in, so a working pen always stays with the board. Dry-wipe markers and an eraser are ordered separately, which lets you pick the colours and tip sizes your room needs. Always use dry-wipe pens, never permanent markers, to protect the ghosting-resistant finish.
Guides for Choosing and Using Whiteboards
A large whiteboard earns its place when it matches the room and gets used well. Picking the right surface, sizing it to the space and planning a layout that keeps both faces working all make a real difference to how often it gets used.

Two Working Surfaces on One Wall, Sized for the Whole Room
Some rooms need a board everyone can read from the back, and a board that does more than one job. The WBD2412 is our largest wall-mounted double-sided whiteboard, giving you a plain dry-wipe face for open writing and notices on one side and a printed grid face for structured charts, graphs and planning on the other. You decide which face points into the room when it goes up, so the board matches how the space is actually used. The dry-wipe finish resists ghosting, so writing lifts away cleanly day after day instead of leaving the grey shadows that make older boards look tired. Best suited for large classrooms, university lecture theatres and NHS wards where the same information has to stay clear and legible to a full room and gets updated many times a day.
Why This Board Works Where Others Fall Short
- A plain side and a grid side in one board: One face is open dry-wipe space for free writing, notices and quick instructions. The reverse carries a printed grid that keeps charts, timetables and graphs neatly aligned. You get two distinct working surfaces without paying for or hanging two separate boards on the wall.
- You choose which face shows: When the board is mounted you decide whether the plain side or the grid side faces into the room, so it suits how that particular space works in practice. A planning office can lead with the grid, a classroom with the open writing side, all from the same single product family.
- Ghosting-resistant dry-wipe finish: The writing surface is built to release marker ink fully when wiped, so it does not hold the faint shadows of yesterday's notes. The board keeps a clean, professional look through heavy daily use rather than greying and staining within months like budget boards do.
- Full-length pen ledge keeps you ready: A pen ledge runs the full width of the board to hold markers and erasers in one place. Nobody hunts for a working pen at the start of a lesson or a ward handover, and the kit stays with the board instead of wandering off around the room over time.
- Aluminium frame that holds its line: A slim aluminium frame protects the board edges, keeps the large surface flat and true against the wall, and gives a clean, neutral finish that suits a classroom, a lecture hall or a clinical corridor without drawing any attention to itself.
- Backed for five years: The board carries a 5-year manufacturer's guarantee covering materials and workmanship, so it is built to keep performing in the high-traffic environments it is made for rather than needing replacing after just a year or two of daily writing and wiping.
The Rooms This Board Was Made For
| Large Classrooms and Teaching Spaces | The wide surface stays readable from the back row, so a full class follows the same worked example or set of instructions at once without anyone straining to see. Lead with the plain side for everyday lessons, or turn the grid out for maths, graphs and structured work. |
| University and College Lecture Theatres | Enough surface for a complex diagram, a full proof or a whole term plan without cramming it in. The grid side keeps technical drawings and tables aligned, while the plain side handles open discussion and freeform notes during a session. |
| NHS Wards and Clinical Settings | Supports detailed ward planning, shift updates and patient-flow boards where information changes through the day and has to stay legible. The grid face keeps columns and rows neat for structured charts, and the surface wipes clean for constant updating. |
| Training Rooms and Workshops | A large shared surface for building out a process, running an exercise or capturing group input as it comes. Choose the grid face for structured frameworks or the plain face for open brainstorming, mounted to suit the room's main everyday use. |
| Offices and Planning Spaces | Project walls, sprint boards and team planning all benefit from the extra width and the grid side's alignment. The board stays fixed and visible so the plan lives on the wall rather than getting wiped and lost between meetings each week. |
| Reception, Corridors and Public Areas | A clean, framed surface for notices, schedules and wayfinding information in busy shared spaces. The neutral aluminium frame suits a professional setting, and the large face keeps messages visible to everyone passing through the area at a glance. |
Need the Same Board in a Smaller Size?
If the full width is more than your wall allows, the 1800mm wide double-sided whiteboard offers the same plain-and-grid design in a shorter frame. For tighter rooms again, the 1500mm wide version keeps both surfaces in a more compact format.

The Displaysense WBD2412 is a Double-Sided Whiteboard with an aluminium frame, the largest in the wall-mounted range. One side is a plain dry-wipe surface, the other a 25mm printed grid for structured writing and charts. Non-magnetic. Surface dimensions 2400mm W x 1200mm H. Wall-mounted, reversible so you choose which face shows when fitting. Ghosting-resistant finish, full-length pen ledge included, slim aluminium frame. 5-year manufacturer's guarantee. Suited to large classrooms, lecture theatres, NHS wards, training rooms and offices. Also available as the 1800mm WBD1812 and 1500mm WBD1215. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978.
A double-sided board is two writing surfaces fixed back to back in one frame, and on this board the two sides do deliberately different jobs. One face is left completely plain for open, freeform writing. The other is printed with a fine 25mm grid, a network of light squares that act as guidelines. The grid does not show through strongly in normal use, but it gives you something to write along, so columns stay straight, rows line up and a hand-drawn chart or graph looks ordered rather than wandering. Plain when you want freedom, gridded when you want structure, on the same fixed board.
Because this board is wall-mounted rather than mobile, the choice of which face shows is made once, at the point of fitting. You hang it with the side you use most facing the room. That is worth thinking through before installation: a maths department or a planning office will usually want the grid out, while a general classroom or a noticeboard role suits the plain side. The board is fixed, large and stable on the wall, which is exactly what you want for a surface people read all day, but it does mean the outward face is a setup decision rather than something you flip mid-lesson.
Ghosting is the faint grey shadow left behind when marker ink soaks into a cheap surface and will not fully wipe away. It is what makes an old whiteboard look permanently dirty. This board uses a dry-wipe finish engineered to release the ink completely, so a normal wipe takes the writing back to a clean surface. That matters most in the settings this board is built for, where the same area is written on and cleared many times a day. A surface that wipes truly clean keeps each new note legible instead of competing with the ghost of the last one.
The board is held in a slim aluminium frame, and that frame does more than tidy the edges. Aluminium is light for its strength, so a surface this large stays rigid and flat against the wall without a heavy timber surround, and it does not rust or warp in the warm, humid air of a busy ward or a packed lecture theatre. The frame caps the vulnerable board edges where knocks and peeling usually start, and a full-length pen ledge sits along the bottom rail to keep markers and erasers on the board itself. The result is a surface built to stay flat, clean and ready for years of daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Double-Sided Whiteboard
Q: What size room does a 2400 x 1200mm whiteboard suit?
A: A 2400mm wide surface is built for large rooms where people sit several metres back, such as full-size classrooms, lecture theatres and open-plan offices. Writing stays legible from the back row, which a smaller board cannot manage. For a standard meeting room or small classroom, a 1500mm or 1800mm width is enough.
Q: What is the point of the gridded side?
A: The 25mm grid turns one face into a precision surface. Anything that relies on alignment, timetables, seating plans, rotas, graphs or maths work, stays straight without ruling lines by hand. The plain reverse stays free for open writing, so you do not have to choose between freeform teaching and structured planning.
Q: Is the WBD2412 whiteboard magnetic?
A: No, the surface is a non-magnetic dry-wipe finish for writing only, so magnets will not hold. If pinning printed handouts matters more than the lower price, a magnetic board is the better choice. If it is mainly for writing, going non-magnetic keeps a surface this large affordable, which is why it suits kitting out several rooms.
Q: How does this compare to the smaller WBD1812?
A: Both share the same plain and 25mm grid faces, aluminium frame and pen ledge, so the only real difference is width. At 2400mm this is the widest option, made for the largest teaching and clinical spaces. The WBD1812 is 1800mm wide and fits rooms where the full span will not. Pick on room size and how far back the furthest viewer sits.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain with heavy daily use?
A: The dry-wipe finish is engineered to release marker ink fully, so it resists ghosting, the grey shadowing that makes budget boards look permanently dirty. Used with proper dry-wipe markers and wiped regularly, it clears back to clean even after constant updating. Avoid permanent markers and abrasive pads, which damage any dry-wipe surface.
Q: Is it suitable for NHS wards and clinical settings?
A: Yes. The large surface suits detailed ward planning, shift handovers, staff briefings and patient-flow boards, and the grid side keeps clinical charts neat and aligned. The finish clears cleanly for the constant updating these settings need, and the aluminium frame holds up in a warm, busy environment without rusting or warping.
Q: Can several people write on it at the same time?
A: Yes, and that is much of the reason for the width. A 2400mm face gives a whole group room to add to a plan or run a workshop together without anyone waiting for space to clear. It is a real difference from a standard 1200mm board, where two people writing at once quickly run out of room.
Q: Which side should face into the room?
A: Because the board is wall-mounted, you set the outward face once when fitting it, so choose the side that matches the room's main job. Maths, planning and clinical areas usually want the grid showing, while a general classroom or notice space suits the plain face. The second surface is always there if you remount it later.
Q: How is such a large board fixed safely to the wall?
A: Wall-mounting fittings are supplied, and the board fixes flat to a solid, load-bearing wall. Because of its size, mount it onto sound masonry or a reinforced surface using fixings suited to your wall type. Fitted correctly it stays rock solid, giving a surface people can lean on and write against firmly all day.
Q: Does the 5-year guarantee make it worth paying more than a budget board?
A: The 5-year guarantee covers materials and workmanship, and it reflects a real difference. Cheap boards tend to ghost, stain and warp within a year of heavy use, then need replacing. A guaranteed, ghosting-resistant surface in an aluminium frame keeps performing in high-traffic schools and wards, so it works out cheaper over its life.
Q: Can it be used outdoors or in a damp area?
A: No, it is designed for indoor use, in classrooms, lecture theatres, offices and clinical rooms. Outdoor use or a permanently damp area would let moisture reach the surface and fittings over time. For outdoor messaging, a purpose-built weather-resistant signage product is the right choice instead.
Q: Are markers and erasers included, or bought separately?
A: A full-length pen ledge is built in, so a working pen always stays with the board. Dry-wipe markers and an eraser are ordered separately, which lets you pick the colours and tip sizes your room needs. Always use dry-wipe pens, never permanent markers, to protect the ghosting-resistant finish.
Guides for Choosing and Using Whiteboards
A large whiteboard earns its place when it matches the room and gets used well. Picking the right surface, sizing it to the space and planning a layout that keeps both faces working all make a real difference to how often it gets used. These guides cover choosing and getting the most from boards in schools and offices.

A: A full-length pen ledge is built in, so a working pen always stays with the board. Dry-wipe markers and an eraser are ordered separately, which lets you pick the colours and tip sizes your room needs. Always use dry-wipe pens, never permanent markers, to protect the ghosting-resistant finish.

Excellent service
"Excellent service"
Would certainly recommend
"I've bought quite a few whiteboards over the years and this is definitely one the best. It's all about the board surface, some scratch really easily or leave ghosting pen marks but I've found these don't do that. Overall I would certainly recommend."
