One Large Red Fire Retardant Noticeboard That a Whole Room Can See
A big red board does one thing better than any other colour, which is simply to be seen, so a notice lands the very moment someone walks into a hectic corridor, a reception or a packed staff area rather than getting lost on a crowded, cluttered wall. At this scale the red carries right across a room and down a long corridor, the felt underneath is fire rated for use in public buildings, and pins and staples both hold on the open face so a poster or a memo goes straight up. This noticeboard is sold only through Displaysense. Best suited to high-traffic corridors, reception and entrance areas and full-size staff walls where a notice has to be spotted quickly from a distance and the board still has to meet the fire rules.
Why a Big Red Felt Board Keeps a Busy Corridor's Notices in One Place
- Seen from right across a room: A broad panel of bright red pulls the eye the moment anyone walks into the space, so an urgent notice, a safety message or an event poster registers from a distance instead of being missed on a crowded wall packed with other paper competing for their attention.
- Room for a whole wall of notices: The generous felt area gives room for a full, mixed run of posters, rotas and printed memos neatly side by side, so a reception, a corridor or a staff room can show a whole term's worth of information at once without ever pinning one sheet on top of another to make it fit.
- Fire rated felt under the red: Behind the bright red colour the felt is tested and rated against recognised fire standards, so a board that fills right up with paper still keeps a school, a clinic or another public building on the right side of the fire-safety rules that public wall has to meet.
- Takes pins and staples on an open face: Press in a pin or fix a staple and the felt holds either one, so a single light flyer and a thick, stapled pack of pages each sit flat and secure, and either one lifts off cleanly when a high-traffic board needs refreshing for a new week, a new event or a whole fresh set of notices.
- Neat capped corners, no sharp edges: Every fixing is fully concealed and each corner is finished with a neat cap, so there is no exposed hardware at all on a board that hangs where a lot of people pass close by, and the slim frame keeps a clean, even line around the full red surface.
- Hangs upright or on its side: Mount the whole board upright in portrait for a tall stretch of wall or turned for landscape on a wide one using the wall kit supplied, so the whole board sits on the space you have the correct way up for whichever run of notices you want to put up.
Where a Big Red Information Board Fits in Busy, High-Traffic Buildings
| Busy Corridors and Entrances | High-footfall areas get a wide red board that carries a single clear message right down a corridor, the open felt letting staff refresh a notice quickly where a lot of people pass by every hour of the day. |
| Schools and Colleges | A big red wall board suits a hall, a corridor or a main noticeboard point, holding a full spread of notices, timetables and pupil information, with a fire-rated felt that meets the safety rules a school building works to. |
| Reception and Visitor Areas | Front-of-house walls take a bold red board that greets arriving visitors with clear notices, directions and welcome messages, the wide surface presenting a tidy welcome without the message getting lost the moment someone arrives. |
| Healthcare and Waiting Areas | Waiting rooms and clinic corridors lean on a bold red board of guidance and safety notices that stands out clearly to patients and visitors, the certified felt keeping a well-used, paper-covered wall well inside a healthcare site's fire rules. |
| Staff Communication Walls | Back-of-house and staff rooms get a full-size red board that keeps rotas, policies and shift notices in one central place, the open face making it quick to swap a sheet over between one shift and the next. |
| Community and Public Halls | Halls, leisure centres and public buildings take a big red board for events, timetables and public notices, the strong red colour drawing attention across a wide, open space where a smaller board would go unseen on the wall. |
Need a Smaller Red Board Instead?
For a tighter spot where a full-size board would be too much for the wall, the same fire retardant red felt also comes in a compact format. See the smaller red fire retardant noticeboard here, with free UK mainland delivery.
NB4818RD is a Fire Retardant Red Felt Aluminium Framed Noticeboard from Displaysense. A large, open red felt board built for high-traffic walls, where the bright red is easy to read from across a room and the felt meets fire standards BS 476 Class 0 and BS-EN 13501-1 (B-s1, d0) for public buildings. Width 1200mm, height 1800mm. Weighs 15kg. Red felt on an open face taking pins and staples, set in a satin silver anodised aluminium frame with concealed corner fixings and no exposed hardware. No lock and no door. Wall-mounted in portrait or landscape using the fixings provided. Indoor use only. Picked by schools, reception desks, healthcare sites and public buildings that want a big, fire-safe board people can read at a glance. Sold only through Displaysense, and also made in blue, green and grey at this size and in a smaller 900mm by 600mm format. Displaysense, UK display specialist since 1978. Free UK delivery.
Size is the whole point of this board, because a broad red panel reaches people that a small one never could, carrying a single notice clearly right across a hall, down a long corridor or over a crowded reception desk the very moment they walk in. The generous felt area also means a great deal goes up at once, so a full run of posters, rotas and printed memos can sit side by side rather than layered one over another to make everything fit. On a high-traffic wall, that is really the whole difference between a message being seen at once and a message being missed altogether.
Red does its very best work on a wall that has to grab attention fast, which is exactly why it turns up on safety boards, entrance walls and main notice points where nothing on the wall can be overlooked. The bright red surface makes an urgent memo or a printed event poster register from right across the room, and against that strong red backing black-and-white print stays sharp and easy to read, so the board pulls the eye toward it without making the notices themselves any harder to read or take in.
Behind the colour the felt is treated to slow flame and resist catching light, which is why it holds the fire ratings BS 476 Class 0 and BS-EN 13501-1 in the B-s1, d0 class. Those two marks are what a display surface has to hit reach before it goes up in a school, a clinic or another building the public uses, so a big red board can fill right up completely with paper and still stay within the fire rules that apply to that particular wall.
Fitting the board takes just the supplied wall kit and it hangs in either portrait or landscape, with pins and staples both gripping firmly on the open, doorless face and every corner finished with a cap so that no fixings show. Made for indoor walls throughout, this red board is sold only through Displaysense, comes with free UK mainland delivery and a 28-day returns window, and is also made in blue, green and grey at this full size and in a smaller wall format for tighter spaces where a full board would not fit.
What Ships with This Large Noticeboard
- 1 x large red fire retardant felt noticeboard with a satin silver anodised aluminium frame
- 1 x wall mounting kit with concealed corner fixings
Prefer a Quieter Colour at This Size?
If a big board would work better in a calmer shade, the fire retardant range runs in four colours at this size. A neutral grey blends into a plainer wall while red pulls attention on a busy one. Our team can help you choose.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Large open red fire retardant felt noticeboard | A big, open felt board built for a high-traffic wall, quick to refresh and bright enough to be read from right across a busy, crowded room. |
| Colour | Red | A strong, bright red pulls the eye in fast, so an urgent notice or a safety message really stands out on a crowded, cluttered wall. |
| Surface | Red felt, holds pins and staples | The felt grips both push pins and staples across a wide open face, so staff can pin up posters, rotas or notices and swap them over. |
| Fire rating | BS 476 Class 0, BS-EN 13501-1 (B-s1, d0) | Tested to two named UK fire standards, the felt lets a big board fill right up with paper while a school or clinic wall behind it stays compliant. |
| Frame | Satin silver anodised aluminium | A slim satin silver frame edges the red felt in a clean, even surround that suits a corridor, reception or public-building wall. |
| Corner fixings | Concealed, capped corners | Every fixing is hidden away and each corner is neatly capped, so there is no exposed hardware on a board where a lot of people pass close by. |
| Size | 1800mm x 1200mm | A generous display area that holds a full wall of notices all at once and carries a single clear message right across a wide, open space. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Stand it tall for portrait or lay it wide for landscape, whichever the wall calls for, and the supplied kit covers both fittings. |
| Weight | 15kg | A bigger board that two people can lift and level comfortably between them, then leave sitting flat and secure once it is fixed to the wall. |
| Wall fixings | Wall mounting kit supplied | The wall mounting kit is included in the box, so the red board can be levelled and fixed straight onto the wall on arrival. |
| Environment | Indoor use | Suited to indoor walls in schools, receptions, clinics and public buildings, and not to damp, wet or rain-exposed outdoor positions. |
| Exclusivity | Available only from Displaysense | Sold through Displaysense and by no other retailer, which keeps this big red board a genuinely distinct choice for a busy, high-traffic wall. |

FAQs About This Large Red Fire Retardant Noticeboard
Getting the Most from a Large Noticeboard on a Busy Wall
Scale changes how a noticeboard is planned: a wall this size can carry far more, but only pays off when the layout is thought through and the felt is rated for a public building. The Displaysense guides below look at sizing a board to the space, when fire-resistant felt becomes a requirement, laying out a heavy-footfall corridor so it still reads, and lifting a tired staff wall into one people bother to check.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Large open red fire retardant felt noticeboard | A big, open felt board built for a high-traffic wall, quick to refresh and bright enough to be read from right across a busy, crowded room. |
| Colour | Red | A strong, bright red pulls the eye in fast, so an urgent notice or a safety message really stands out on a crowded, cluttered wall. |
| Surface | Red felt, holds pins and staples | The felt grips both push pins and staples across a wide open face, so staff can pin up posters, rotas or notices and swap them over. |
| Fire rating | BS 476 Class 0, BS-EN 13501-1 (B-s1, d0) | Tested to two named UK fire standards, the felt lets a big board fill right up with paper while a school or clinic wall behind it stays compliant. |
| Frame | Satin silver anodised aluminium | A slim satin silver frame edges the red felt in a clean, even surround that suits a corridor, reception or public-building wall. |
| Corner fixings | Concealed, capped corners | Every fixing is hidden away and each corner is neatly capped, so there is no exposed hardware on a board where a lot of people pass close by. |
| Size | 1800mm x 1200mm | A generous display area that holds a full wall of notices all at once and carries a single clear message right across a wide, open space. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Stand it tall for portrait or lay it wide for landscape, whichever the wall calls for, and the supplied kit covers both fittings. |
| Weight | 15kg | A bigger board that two people can lift and level comfortably between them, then leave sitting flat and secure once it is fixed to the wall. |
| Wall fixings | Wall mounting kit supplied | The wall mounting kit is included in the box, so the red board can be levelled and fixed straight onto the wall on arrival. |
| Environment | Indoor use | Suited to indoor walls in schools, receptions, clinics and public buildings, and not to damp, wet or rain-exposed outdoor positions. |
| Exclusivity | Available only from Displaysense | Sold through Displaysense and by no other retailer, which keeps this big red board a genuinely distinct choice for a busy, high-traffic wall. |

FAQs About This Large Red Fire Retardant Noticeboard
Getting the Most from a Large Noticeboard on a Busy Wall
Scale changes how a noticeboard is planned: a wall this size can carry far more, but only pays off when the layout is thought through and the felt is rated for a public building. The Displaysense guides below look at sizing a board to the space, when fire-resistant felt becomes a requirement, laying out a heavy-footfall corridor so it still reads, and lifting a tired staff wall into one people bother to check.
Overview
One Large Red Fire Retardant Noticeboard That a Whole Room Can See
A big red board does one thing better than any other colour, which is simply to be seen, so a notice lands the very moment someone walks into a hectic corridor, a reception or a packed staff area rather than getting lost on a crowded, cluttered wall. At this scale the red carries right across a room and down a long corridor, the felt underneath is fire rated for use in public buildings, and pins and staples both hold on the open face so a poster or a memo goes straight up. This noticeboard is sold only through Displaysense. Best suited to high-traffic corridors, reception and entrance areas and full-size staff walls where a notice has to be spotted quickly from a distance and the board still has to meet the fire rules.
Why a Big Red Felt Board Keeps a Busy Corridor's Notices in One Place
- Seen from right across a room: A broad panel of bright red pulls the eye the moment anyone walks into the space, so an urgent notice, a safety message or an event poster registers from a distance instead of being missed on a crowded wall packed with other paper competing for their attention.
- Room for a whole wall of notices: The generous felt area gives room for a full, mixed run of posters, rotas and printed memos neatly side by side, so a reception, a corridor or a staff room can show a whole term's worth of information at once without ever pinning one sheet on top of another to make it fit.
- Fire rated felt under the red: Behind the bright red colour the felt is tested and rated against recognised fire standards, so a board that fills right up with paper still keeps a school, a clinic or another public building on the right side of the fire-safety rules that public wall has to meet.
- Takes pins and staples on an open face: Press in a pin or fix a staple and the felt holds either one, so a single light flyer and a thick, stapled pack of pages each sit flat and secure, and either one lifts off cleanly when a high-traffic board needs refreshing for a new week, a new event or a whole fresh set of notices.
- Neat capped corners, no sharp edges: Every fixing is fully concealed and each corner is finished with a neat cap, so there is no exposed hardware at all on a board that hangs where a lot of people pass close by, and the slim frame keeps a clean, even line around the full red surface.
- Hangs upright or on its side: Mount the whole board upright in portrait for a tall stretch of wall or turned for landscape on a wide one using the wall kit supplied, so the whole board sits on the space you have the correct way up for whichever run of notices you want to put up.
Where a Big Red Information Board Fits in Busy, High-Traffic Buildings
| Busy Corridors and Entrances | High-footfall areas get a wide red board that carries a single clear message right down a corridor, the open felt letting staff refresh a notice quickly where a lot of people pass by every hour of the day. |
| Schools and Colleges | A big red wall board suits a hall, a corridor or a main noticeboard point, holding a full spread of notices, timetables and pupil information, with a fire-rated felt that meets the safety rules a school building works to. |
| Reception and Visitor Areas | Front-of-house walls take a bold red board that greets arriving visitors with clear notices, directions and welcome messages, the wide surface presenting a tidy welcome without the message getting lost the moment someone arrives. |
| Healthcare and Waiting Areas | Waiting rooms and clinic corridors lean on a bold red board of guidance and safety notices that stands out clearly to patients and visitors, the certified felt keeping a well-used, paper-covered wall well inside a healthcare site's fire rules. |
| Staff Communication Walls | Back-of-house and staff rooms get a full-size red board that keeps rotas, policies and shift notices in one central place, the open face making it quick to swap a sheet over between one shift and the next. |
| Community and Public Halls | Halls, leisure centres and public buildings take a big red board for events, timetables and public notices, the strong red colour drawing attention across a wide, open space where a smaller board would go unseen on the wall. |
Need a Smaller Red Board Instead?
For a tighter spot where a full-size board would be too much for the wall, the same fire retardant red felt also comes in a compact format. See the smaller red fire retardant noticeboard here, with free UK mainland delivery.

Description
Size is the whole point of this board, because a broad red panel reaches people that a small one never could, carrying a single notice clearly right across a hall, down a long corridor or over a crowded reception desk the very moment they walk in. The generous felt area also means a great deal goes up at once, so a full run of posters, rotas and printed memos can sit side by side rather than layered one over another to make everything fit. On a high-traffic wall, that is really the whole difference between a message being seen at once and a message being missed altogether.
Red does its very best work on a wall that has to grab attention fast, which is exactly why it turns up on safety boards, entrance walls and main notice points where nothing on the wall can be overlooked. The bright red surface makes an urgent memo or a printed event poster register from right across the room, and against that strong red backing black-and-white print stays sharp and easy to read, so the board pulls the eye toward it without making the notices themselves any harder to read or take in.
Behind the colour the felt is treated to slow flame and resist catching light, which is why it holds the fire ratings BS 476 Class 0 and BS-EN 13501-1 in the B-s1, d0 class. Those two marks are what a display surface has to hit reach before it goes up in a school, a clinic or another building the public uses, so a big red board can fill right up completely with paper and still stay within the fire rules that apply to that particular wall.
Fitting the board takes just the supplied wall kit and it hangs in either portrait or landscape, with pins and staples both gripping firmly on the open, doorless face and every corner finished with a cap so that no fixings show. Made for indoor walls throughout, this red board is sold only through Displaysense, comes with free UK mainland delivery and a 28-day returns window, and is also made in blue, green and grey at this full size and in a smaller wall format for tighter spaces where a full board would not fit.
