A Premium Magnetic Board Built to Look as Good as It Works
Most whiteboards start to show their age within a year, with grey ghosting, scratched surfaces and clumsy visible brackets. The WB180120M is built to avoid all three. Available exclusively from Displaysense, it pairs a premium anti-scratch, anti-porous magnetic coated steel surface with a satin anodised aluminium frame and concealed flush fixings, so it writes cleanly, wipes back to fresh and hangs as a seamless panel with no hardware on show. Because the surface is magnetic, you write with dry-wipe pens and hold notices, plans and printouts with magnets on the same board. It carries Department for Education approval and a 5-year guarantee. Best suited for classrooms, meeting rooms and design studios where a board has to perform every day and still look the part in a polished space.
Why This Board Outlasts the Budget Alternatives
- Anti-scratch, anti-porous surface: The coated steel face is hardened against the scratches and ink soak that wreck cheaper boards. Marks lift away with a wipe and leave nothing behind, so the surface stays clear and legible through years of daily writing rather than fading to a grey haze.
- Write and pin on one magnetic surface: The steel beneath the coating means magnets grip, so a printout, a plan or a notice sits right beside your handwritten notes. Live working and reference material share one board instead of needing a separate pin surface on another wall.
- Mounts portrait or landscape: The board fixes securely in either orientation, so it fits a wide teaching wall or a tall, narrow space equally well. One product suits more rooms than a fixed-orientation board, which helps when specifying boards across a building with varied wall space.
- Department for Education approved: The board is approved for use in education settings, so schools can specify it with confidence that it meets the demands of constant classroom use. The same durability that suits a school makes it a dependable choice for any busy room.
- Satin anodised aluminium frame with concealed fixings: The slim anodised frame resists marking and corrosion, while the corner fixings are hidden, so the board mounts as a clean panel with no visible screws or brackets. It looks deliberate and refined rather than purely functional.
- Pen tray and 5-year guarantee: A built-in tray keeps markers and an eraser to hand at the board, and the whole product is backed by a 5-year Displaysense guarantee. You get everyday convenience and long-term reassurance that both the surface and the frame will keep performing.
Where This Premium Board Earns Its Place
| Schools and Classrooms | Approved for education and built for constant lesson use, with magnets to hold worksheets and exemplar work beside the teaching. The hardened surface takes daily writing and erasing without ghosting, so the board stays clear and presentable to a class year after year rather than fading. |
| Meeting Rooms and Boardrooms | A refined board that looks right in a client-facing room, with the magnetic face holding the agenda or the latest figures next to live notes. The concealed fixings and anodised frame give a finished look that suits a professional meeting space rather than a tucked-away back office. |
| Design and Creative Studios | Studios pin references, mood images and sketches with magnets while working ideas out alongside them in pen. The clean, scratch-resistant surface keeps a busy working wall looking sharp, which matters a great deal in a space where clients regularly see the room. |
| Offices and Project Teams | Teams plan, map workflows and track projects on a board that holds printed material with magnets and wipes clean for the next session. The durable coated surface suits a room in constant daily use without the tired, shadowed look that cheaper boards take on so quickly. |
| Home Offices and Studies | A board that earns its place on a wall you actually look at, combining a tidy magnetic planning surface with a frame and finish smart enough for a room at home. It mounts flush and clean with no visible screws or brackets to spoil the look of the wall. |
| Universities and Training Rooms | Lecturers and trainers get a large, durable surface for worked examples and session plans, with magnets to hold printed references alongside. The approved, guaranteed build suits an institution that needs to specify boards across many rooms and buildings at once. |
Need a Bigger or Smaller Board?
If you need more writing space, the 2400mm wide magnetic board covers a larger wall. For a compact space, the 1200 x 900mm magnetic board keeps the same coated steel surface in a smaller frame.

The Displaysense WB180120M is a Magnetic Coated Steel Whiteboard, available exclusively from Displaysense. Premium anti-scratch, anti-porous magnetic coated steel surface for dry-wipe writing and magnets, ghosting-resistant. Surface dimensions 1800mm W x 1200mm H. Weight 13kg. Satin anodised aluminium frame with concealed flush fixings, silver finish, integrated pen tray. Wall-mounted, mounts portrait or landscape. Department for Education approved, 5-year guarantee. Suited to classrooms, meeting rooms, design studios, offices and home offices. Also available as the larger WBSM1224 and the smaller WB12090M. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978.
What separates a board that lasts from one that looks tired in a year is the surface coating. This board uses an anti-porous, anti-scratch coating over magnetic coated steel. Anti-porous means the surface does not let ink soak in, which is the cause of ghosting, the grey shadow that cheaper boards keep even after wiping. Anti-scratch means the face resists the fine surface damage that builds up over time from erasers, pen nibs and the occasional accidental knock. Together they keep the writing surface clear, smooth and clean through years of constant daily use, rather than slowly clouding over into the grey haze that makes an old board hard to read.
Being magnetic changes how the board is used day to day. Beneath the white coating sits a layer of steel, so magnets grip the surface. That lets you use dry-wipe pens and, at the same time, hold a printout, a notice or a plan against the board with magnets. A non-magnetic board can only ever be written on. Here the same surface handles both, so reference material and live notes sit together on a single wall rather than needing a separate pin board somewhere nearby.
The frame and fixings are where the premium finish shows. The frame is satin anodised aluminium, an aluminium that has been treated to harden its surface and resist marking and corrosion, which keeps the edges looking clean far longer than a painted frame. The corner fixings are concealed, so when the board is mounted there are no visible screws or brackets. The result is a board that hangs as a single flush panel with nothing on show, which is why it suits client-facing rooms and carefully considered interiors just as well as ordinary working spaces.
The board is supplied ready to use and to last. A pen tray is fitted to the frame to keep markers and an eraser with the board itself rather than scattered around the room or going missing. It carries Department for Education approval, meaning it is recognised as suitable for the demands of a busy school setting, and a 5-year guarantee backs both the surface and the frame against normal use. It should be mounted on a solid, weight-bearing wall using the fittings provided, in either portrait or landscape to suit the space and the wall.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Surface Dimensions | 1800mm (W) x 1200mm (H) | A large landscape surface with plenty of room for diagrams and group work at once, and it stays clearly readable from across a busy, full room. |
| Surface Type | Magnetic coated steel | Write with dry-wipe pens and also hold prints, plans or notices with magnets on the very same surface, so a single board does both jobs at once. |
| Coating | Anti-scratch, anti-porous | Resists both scratches and ink soak, so the surface wipes back to clean and stays clear rather than ghosting to a tired grey shade over time. |
| Frame | Satin anodised aluminium | A treated aluminium frame that resists marking and corrosion well, keeping the edges looking clean and sharp far longer than a painted frame would. |
| Fixings | Concealed flush corner fixings | No visible screws or brackets at all once it is mounted, so the board hangs as a clean flush panel that suits client-facing and carefully considered rooms. |
| Weight | Approximately 13kg | Light enough to handle yet substantial enough to feel solid, so fix it to a sound, load-bearing wall with the supplied fixings for a firm, stable surface. |
| Finish Colour | Silver | A clean, neutral silver frame finish that suits professional interiors and keeps written content easy to read clearly across the whole room. |
| Mounting | Wall-mounted, fixings supplied | Arrives ready to fix to the wall with all the fittings included, so there is no separate bracket or mounting kit to buy and source. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Mount it wide for a teaching wall or upright in a narrow space, so a single board adapts to more rooms than a fixed-layout panel would. |
| Pen Tray | Integrated into the frame | Holds markers and an eraser right with the board itself, so the writing kit stays put and nobody has to hunt around for a pen mid-session. |
| Approval | Department for Education approved | Recognised as suitable for demanding school use, so it can be specified for classrooms with full confidence in its everyday durability. |
| Guarantee | 5-year Displaysense guarantee | Both the surface and the frame are backed for a full five years, giving real long-term reassurance for a board in heavy daily use. |

Frequently Asked Questions About This Magnetic Whiteboard
Q: What is the best magnetic whiteboard for a classroom or meeting room?
A: For a board that has to look smart and last, the WB180120M is a strong choice. It combines a hardened scratch and ghost-resistant magnetic face with a treated aluminium surround and hidden fixings, is education approved and guaranteed for five years, and at 1800mm wide suits classrooms, meeting rooms and studios.
Q: What does the anti-scratch, anti-porous coating actually do?
A: The anti-porous coating stops ink soaking into the surface, which is what causes ghosting, the grey shadow cheap boards keep after wiping. The anti-scratch layer resists the fine wear from erasers and knocks. Between them the face stays clear and clean for years rather than clouding over with daily use.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain with heavy daily use?
A: No. The anti-porous coating resists the ink soak that causes ghosting, so the board wipes back to clean with a dry eraser. A whiteboard spray lifts any stubborn marks. Used with dry-wipe pens and wiped regularly, it stays clear, which is what the 5-year guarantee on the surface reflects.
Q: Is this whiteboard suitable for schools and is it education approved?
A: Yes. The board is Department for Education approved, so it is recognised as fit for school use, and built for constant lessons. Magnets pin handouts and marked-up examples next to the teaching, and the hardened surface takes constant use without shadowing, so it stays presentable to a class for years.
Q: Is this whiteboard suitable for offices and design studios?
A: Yes. Offices and studios use it for planning, workflow mapping and pinning references with magnets alongside live notes. The hidden fixings and treated frame give a polished look that suits a client-facing room, and the scratch-resistant surface keeps a working wall looking sharp where the room is on show.
Q: How is the board fixed to the wall?
A: It comes with concealed corner fixings and mounts in either portrait or landscape. The fixings tuck behind the frame, so once it is up there is no hardware on show and the board sits flat against the wall as a single panel. At around 13kg, fix it to a sound wall using fittings suited to your wall type.
Q: What size is the board and how heavy is it?
A: The surface is 1800mm wide by 1200mm high and the board weighs around 13kg. The width gives room for diagrams and group work and stays readable across a room, while the weight is light enough to position easily yet solid once fixed to the wall.
Q: What is the difference between this and the WBSM1224?
A: Both are wall-mounted magnetic coated steel boards. The WB180120M is 1800mm wide with a premium anti-scratch, anti-porous coating, anodised frame, concealed fixings and education approval. The WBSM1224 is wider at 2400mm for larger rooms. Choose this board for a refined finish at 1800mm, or the wider option when you need the extra space.
Q: Is the premium coating and frame worth it over a basic whiteboard?
A: It depends on the room and how hard the board works. In a client-facing or heavily used space, the anti-scratch surface and concealed-fixing finish stay looking sharp where a budget board ghosts and scratches within a year. For occasional light use in a back room, a basic board may be enough.
Q: Can I use it with standard whiteboard pens and magnets?
A: Yes. It works with any standard dry-wipe whiteboard pens and erasers, and the magnetic steel surface holds standard whiteboard magnets. A pen tray runs along the frame so markers and an eraser stay with the board. Always use dry-wipe, never permanent, markers to protect the surface.
Q: Is this whiteboard available with UK delivery?
A: Yes. This board ships with free UK mainland delivery and is available exclusively from Displaysense. Displaysense has supplied UK schools, offices and studios with display products since 1978, so you order from a UK display specialist. Bulk orders for several rooms can be arranged through our team.
Q: Is there a smaller version of this whiteboard?
A: Yes. The WB12090M is 1200mm wide by 900mm high, using the same magnetic coated steel face in a more compact size. Choose the 1800mm board for large rooms where people sit well back. Choose the smaller WB12090M for a home office or a tighter wall space.
Guides for Choosing and Using Magnetic Whiteboards

Why This Board Outlasts the Budget Alternatives
- Anti-scratch, anti-porous surface: The coated steel face is hardened against the scratches and ink soak that wreck cheaper boards. Marks lift away with a wipe and leave nothing behind, so the surface stays clear and legible through years of daily writing rather than fading to a grey haze.
- Write and pin on one magnetic surface: The steel beneath the coating means magnets grip, so a printout, a plan or a notice sits right beside your handwritten notes. Live working and reference material share one board instead of needing a separate pin surface on another wall.
- Mounts portrait or landscape: The board fixes securely in either orientation, so it fits a wide teaching wall or a tall, narrow space equally well. One product suits more rooms than a fixed-orientation board, which helps when specifying boards across a building with varied wall space.
- Department for Education approved: The board is approved for use in education settings, so schools can specify it with confidence that it meets the demands of constant classroom use. The same durability that suits a school makes it a dependable choice for any busy room.
- Satin anodised aluminium frame with concealed fixings: The slim anodised frame resists marking and corrosion, while the corner fixings are hidden, so the board mounts as a clean panel with no visible screws or brackets. It looks deliberate and refined rather than purely functional.
- Pen tray and 5-year guarantee: A built-in tray keeps markers and an eraser to hand at the board, and the whole product is backed by a 5-year Displaysense guarantee. You get everyday convenience and long-term reassurance that both the surface and the frame will keep performing.
Where This Premium Board Earns Its Place
| Schools and Classrooms | Approved for education and built for constant lesson use, with magnets to hold worksheets and exemplar work beside the teaching. The hardened surface takes daily writing and erasing without ghosting, so the board stays clear and presentable to a class year after year rather than fading. |
| Meeting Rooms and Boardrooms | A refined board that looks right in a client-facing room, with the magnetic face holding the agenda or the latest figures next to live notes. The concealed fixings and anodised frame give a finished look that suits a professional meeting space rather than a tucked-away back office. |
| Design and Creative Studios | Studios pin references, mood images and sketches with magnets while working ideas out alongside them in pen. The clean, scratch-resistant surface keeps a busy working wall looking sharp, which matters a great deal in a space where clients regularly see the room. |
| Offices and Project Teams | Teams plan, map workflows and track projects on a board that holds printed material with magnets and wipes clean for the next session. The durable coated surface suits a room in constant daily use without the tired, shadowed look that cheaper boards take on so quickly. |
| Home Offices and Studies | A board that earns its place on a wall you actually look at, combining a tidy magnetic planning surface with a frame and finish smart enough for a room at home. It mounts flush and clean with no visible screws or brackets to spoil the look of the wall. |
| Universities and Training Rooms | Lecturers and trainers get a large, durable surface for worked examples and session plans, with magnets to hold printed references alongside. The approved, guaranteed build suits an institution that needs to specify boards across many rooms and buildings at once. |
Need a Bigger or Smaller Board?
If you need more writing space, the 2400mm wide magnetic board covers a larger wall. For a compact space, the 1200 x 900mm magnetic board keeps the same coated steel surface in a smaller frame.

The Displaysense WB180120M is a Magnetic Coated Steel Whiteboard, available exclusively from Displaysense. Premium anti-scratch, anti-porous magnetic coated steel surface for dry-wipe writing and magnets, ghosting-resistant. Surface dimensions 1800mm W x 1200mm H. Weight 13kg. Satin anodised aluminium frame with concealed flush fixings, silver finish, integrated pen tray. Wall-mounted, mounts portrait or landscape. Department for Education approved, 5-year guarantee. Suited to classrooms, meeting rooms, design studios, offices and home offices. Also available as the larger WBSM1224 and the smaller WB12090M. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978.
What separates a board that lasts from one that looks tired in a year is the surface coating. This board uses an anti-porous, anti-scratch coating over magnetic coated steel. Anti-porous means the surface does not let ink soak in, which is the cause of ghosting, the grey shadow that cheaper boards keep even after wiping. Anti-scratch means the face resists the fine surface damage that builds up over time from erasers, pen nibs and the occasional accidental knock. Together they keep the writing surface clear, smooth and clean through years of constant daily use, rather than slowly clouding over into the grey haze that makes an old board hard to read.
Being magnetic changes how the board is used day to day. Beneath the white coating sits a layer of steel, so magnets grip the surface. That lets you use dry-wipe pens and, at the same time, hold a printout, a notice or a plan against the board with magnets. A non-magnetic board can only ever be written on. Here the same surface handles both, so reference material and live notes sit together on a single wall rather than needing a separate pin board somewhere nearby.
The frame and fixings are where the premium finish shows. The frame is satin anodised aluminium, an aluminium that has been treated to harden its surface and resist marking and corrosion, which keeps the edges looking clean far longer than a painted frame. The corner fixings are concealed, so when the board is mounted there are no visible screws or brackets. The result is a board that hangs as a single flush panel with nothing on show, which is why it suits client-facing rooms and carefully considered interiors just as well as ordinary working spaces.
The board is supplied ready to use and to last. A pen tray is fitted to the frame to keep markers and an eraser with the board itself rather than scattered around the room or going missing. It carries Department for Education approval, meaning it is recognised as suitable for the demands of a busy school setting, and a 5-year guarantee backs both the surface and the frame against normal use. It should be mounted on a solid, weight-bearing wall using the fittings provided, in either portrait or landscape to suit the space and the wall.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Surface Dimensions | 1800mm (W) x 1200mm (H) | A large landscape surface with plenty of room for diagrams and group work at once, and it stays clearly readable from across a busy, full room. |
| Surface Type | Magnetic coated steel | Write with dry-wipe pens and also hold prints, plans or notices with magnets on the very same surface, so a single board does both jobs at once. |
| Coating | Anti-scratch, anti-porous | Resists both scratches and ink soak, so the surface wipes back to clean and stays clear rather than ghosting to a tired grey shade over time. |
| Frame | Satin anodised aluminium | A treated aluminium frame that resists marking and corrosion well, keeping the edges looking clean and sharp far longer than a painted frame would. |

| Finish Colour | Silver | A clean, neutral silver frame finish that suits professional interiors and keeps written content easy to read clearly across the whole room. |
| Mounting | Wall-mounted, fixings supplied | Arrives ready to fix to the wall with all the fittings included, so there is no separate bracket or mounting kit to buy and source. |

| Pen Tray | Integrated into the frame | Holds markers and an eraser right with the board itself, so the writing kit stays put and nobody has to hunt around for a pen mid-session. |
| Approval | Department for Education approved | Recognised as suitable for demanding school use, so it can be specified for classrooms with full confidence in its everyday durability. |
| Guarantee | 5-year Displaysense guarantee | Both the surface and the frame are backed for a full five years, giving real long-term reassurance for a board in heavy daily use. |

Frequently Asked Questions About This Magnetic Whiteboard
Q: What is the best magnetic whiteboard for a classroom or meeting room?
A: For a board that has to look smart and last, the WB180120M is a strong choice. It combines a hardened scratch and ghost-resistant magnetic face with a treated aluminium surround and hidden fixings, is education approved and guaranteed for five years, and at 1800mm wide suits classrooms, meeting rooms and studios.
Q: What does the anti-scratch, anti-porous coating actually do?
A: The anti-porous coating stops ink soaking into the surface, which is what causes ghosting, the grey shadow cheap boards keep after wiping. The anti-scratch layer resists the fine wear from erasers and knocks. Between them the face stays clear and clean for years rather than clouding over with daily use.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain with heavy daily use?
A: No. The anti-porous coating resists the ink soak that causes ghosting, so the board wipes back to clean with a dry eraser. A whiteboard spray lifts any stubborn marks. Used with dry-wipe pens and wiped regularly, it stays clear, which is what the 5-year guarantee on the surface reflects.
Q: Is this whiteboard suitable for schools and is it education approved?
A: Yes. The board is Department for Education approved, so it is recognised as fit for school use, and built for constant lessons. Magnets pin handouts and marked-up examples next to the teaching, and the hardened surface takes constant use without shadowing, so it stays presentable to a class for years.
Q: Is this whiteboard suitable for offices and design studios?
A: Yes. Offices and studios use it for planning, workflow mapping and pinning references with magnets alongside live notes. The hidden fixings and treated frame give a polished look that suits a client-facing room, and the scratch-resistant surface keeps a working wall looking sharp where the room is on show.
Q: How is the board fixed to the wall?
A: It comes with concealed corner fixings and mounts in either portrait or landscape. The fixings tuck behind the frame, so once it is up there is no hardware on show and the board sits flat against the wall as a single panel. At around 13kg, fix it to a sound wall using fittings suited to your wall type.
Q: What size is the board and how heavy is it?
A: The surface is 1800mm wide by 1200mm high and the board weighs around 13kg. The width gives room for diagrams and group work and stays readable across a room, while the weight is light enough to position easily yet solid once fixed to the wall.
Q: What is the difference between this and the WBSM1224?
A: Both are wall-mounted magnetic coated steel boards. The WB180120M is 1800mm wide with a premium anti-scratch, anti-porous coating, anodised frame, concealed fixings and education approval. The WBSM1224 is wider at 2400mm for larger rooms. Choose this board for a refined finish at 1800mm, or the wider option when you need the extra space.
Q: Is the premium coating and frame worth it over a basic whiteboard?
A: It depends on the room and how hard the board works. In a client-facing or heavily used space, the anti-scratch surface and concealed-fixing finish stay looking sharp where a budget board ghosts and scratches within a year. For occasional light use in a back room, a basic board may be enough.
Q: Can I use it with standard whiteboard pens and magnets?
A: Yes. It works with any standard dry-wipe whiteboard pens and erasers, and the magnetic steel surface holds standard whiteboard magnets. A pen tray runs along the frame so markers and an eraser stay with the board. Always use dry-wipe, never permanent, markers to protect the surface.
Q: Is this whiteboard available with UK delivery?
A: Yes. This board ships with free UK mainland delivery and is available exclusively from Displaysense. Displaysense has supplied UK schools, offices and studios with display products since 1978, so you order from a UK display specialist. Bulk orders for several rooms can be arranged through our team.
Q: Is there a smaller version of this whiteboard?
A: Yes. The WB12090M is 1200mm wide by 900mm high, using the same magnetic coated steel face in a more compact size. Choose the 1800mm board for large rooms where people sit well back. Choose the smaller WB12090M for a home office or a tighter wall space.
Guides for Choosing and Using Magnetic Whiteboards
A premium magnetic whiteboard works hardest when it is matched to the room and used well. Knowing when a magnetic surface earns its place, how to size a board to the space and how to set a room up for clear collaboration all make a real difference. These guides cover choosing and getting the most from boards in schools and offices.
Overview
A Premium Magnetic Board Built to Look as Good as It Works
Most whiteboards start to show their age within a year, with grey ghosting, scratched surfaces and clumsy visible brackets. The WB180120M is built to avoid all three. Available exclusively from Displaysense, it pairs a premium anti-scratch, anti-porous magnetic coated steel surface with a satin anodised aluminium frame and concealed flush fixings, so it writes cleanly, wipes back to fresh and hangs as a seamless panel with no hardware on show. Because the surface is magnetic, you write with dry-wipe pens and hold notices, plans and printouts with magnets on the same board. It carries Department for Education approval and a 5-year guarantee. Best suited for classrooms, meeting rooms and design studios where a board has to perform every day and still look the part in a polished space.
Why This Board Outlasts the Budget Alternatives
- Anti-scratch, anti-porous surface: The coated steel face is hardened against the scratches and ink soak that wreck cheaper boards. Marks lift away with a wipe and leave nothing behind, so the surface stays clear and legible through years of daily writing rather than fading to a grey haze.
