A Square Magnetic Board for Writing and Display at Once
A board that a team gathers around should work the same from every side, and hold the things people bring along. The MFW1212L takes a square format so reach is even all round, and pairs that shape with a steel surface that holds magnets, so the board writes like a whiteboard and holds charts, memos and printouts like a noticeboard at the same time. Both faces are plain steel that holds magnets, giving two full surfaces to work across, so one side can stay set up with reference material while the other takes live notes. The square shape keeps the footprint tidy for a board this generous, and the steel surface means a planning session can mix written notes with pinned documents on the one face. Height adjustment raises or lowers the board so the surface suits a seated group or a standing presenter, while a stability bar and lockable castors let the board roll between rooms and then stand firm once parked. The dry-wipe surface erases cleanly without any ghosting, keeping notes and diagrams sharp right through the day. A five-year surface guarantee backs the board for the long term. Best suited for schools, team areas and healthcare settings where a group needs to write, plan and display on one mobile board.
Why a Magnetic Square Board Earns Its Place
- Write and hold on one surface: The magnetic steel face takes dry-wipe marker and holds magnets together, so a session can run live notes alongside pinned charts, memos and printouts without needing a separate noticeboard nearby.
- Even reach all round: A square shape gives the same writing space on every side, so a group gathered around the board shares the space equally rather than crowding toward the centre of a long surface that favours one position.
- Two full faces to work: Both sides are plain magnetic steel, so one face can hold prepared material while the other takes live input, and a long session simply turns the frame rather than wiping work away to make room.
- Set to the right height: The frame raises and lowers so the surface sits at a comfortable level for a standing presenter or a seated group, which keeps a shared board within easy reach for everyone taking part.
- Rolls, then holds firm: A stability bar braces the base and lockable castors let the board move room to room, then lock to keep the frame steady and safe to write against once the board reaches the spot.
- Clean and guaranteed: The dry-wipe steel surface lifts marker away without ghosting, and a five-year surface guarantee reflects a board chosen for steady daily use in demanding rooms.
Where This Square Magnetic Whiteboard Fits Best
| Team Huddles and Project Spaces | Working sessions mix live notes with reference material a team keeps to hand. A square steel face lets a group write up ideas and pin charts side by side, and the board rolls into the project space and locks steady for the meeting. |
| Classroom Zones | Teaching that splits a class into areas needs a board each zone can share. The even square surface suits pupils working from all sides, magnets hold worksheets and examples, and the board moves to whichever zone the lesson uses that day. |
| Breakout and Meeting Rooms | Breakout work swings between brainstorming and reviewing prepared material. One face can carry the agenda on magnets while the other takes the group's notes, so a single board covers both without anyone leaving to fetch a second surface. |
| Healthcare and Wards | Clinical teams pin rotas and pathways as well as writing live updates. A magnetic board rolled to a staff area holds printed notices on one side and takes handover notes on the other, and locking the castors keeps the frame steady through a briefing. |
| Training and Workshops | Running a course often means switching between prepared slides on paper and live working. Magnets hold the printed material on one face while the other is written on, and height adjustment sets the board for a standing trainer and a seated room. |
| Offices and Shared Areas | Departments that share equipment gain from one board that does several jobs. A square magnetic surface that writes, displays and moves covers planning, noticeboard duty and team meetings, so a single board serves a floor rather than three fixed ones. |
Need a Different Size?
For a more compact board, the 900 x 1200mm magnetic board is a step down in size. For a wider writing area, the 1200 x 1500mm magnetic board gives more room across.

The Displaysense MFW1212L is a Magnetic Landscape Mobile Whiteboard. A square double-sided magnetic dry-wipe whiteboard on a height-adjustable mobile frame with lockable castors and a stability bar, in a steel and aluminium frame, combining writing and magnet display from every side. Board size 1200mm W x 1200mm H, overall width 1240mm, overall height adjustable from 1390mm to 1600mm, square format. White magnetic steel dry-wipe surface, plain on both sides, height adjustment of 210mm, lockable castors, stability bar, five-year surface guarantee. Best suited for schools, team areas, breakout rooms and healthcare settings where a group writes, plans and displays on one mobile board. Also available in a smaller 900 x 1200mm size such as the MFW1290L and a larger 1200 x 1500mm size such as the MFW1215L. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978. Free UK mainland delivery.
What really sets this board apart is that the writing surface does two jobs at once. The steel face is magnetic, so the same area that takes dry-wipe marker also holds magnets, letting charts, printouts and memos sit on the board right beside handwritten notes. That combination makes a single surface serve as a whiteboard and a pinning surface at once, which suits planning work where prepared material and live writing belong together rather than split across two separate boards in a room.
The square proportion shapes how a group uses the board. Equal height and width give the same reach from any side, so people gathered around the surface share the space evenly instead of competing for the middle of a long board. A square also reads cleanly from any angle, which matters when the board sits in the centre of a room and a team works from all sides rather than facing the surface head-on from one place. And because the height matches the width, a generous writing area sits in a compact, near-square footprint, taking up far less floor space than a wide board holding the same amount would need along a wall.
The frame is built to move and to adjust. Height adjustment raises or lowers the writing area by 210mm, setting the surface so that people working at the board, seated or standing, can write comfortably. A stabiliser bar across the base keeps the board steady when written on or leaned on, and lockable castors carry the board between rooms before locking firmly in place. Built in steel and aluminium, the frame stays rigid enough for daily handling, yet light enough for one person to reposition without help.
The surface is finished for a long working life. A dry-wipe steel coating lets marker lift away cleanly, and because the face resists ghosting, the grey shadow that dulls cheaper boards does not build up even after months of daily writing and erasing. Made to take the steady demands of a busy school, office or clinical area, the board carries a five-year surface guarantee that backs a unit built for constant use rather than the occasional session.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Square Magnetic Whiteboard
Q: What is the best mobile board for writing and displaying together?
A: A magnetic mobile board, like the MFW1212L, does both at once. The 1200 by 1200mm steel surface works for both marker and magnets at the same time, so live written notes and pinned charts can share the one working face. The square format gives even reach all round, and the board is double-sided with a five-year surface guarantee.
Q: Is the whiteboard magnetic?
A: Yes. Both faces are plain magnetic steel, so the board holds magnets as well as taking dry-wipe marker. Charts, memos and printouts can be pinned to either side, sitting beside handwritten notes, which lets a single surface work as both a whiteboard and a noticeboard at the same time.
Q: Is the board double-sided?
A: Yes. The board carries two full plain magnetic faces to work across. Keep one face set with prepared reference material and use the reverse for live input, so a long session just rotates the board instead of rubbing work off, and a buyer gains twice the usable working area on the same patch of floor.
Q: Why choose a square board over a rectangular one?
A: A square offers identical reach on all four sides, so people standing around the board all use the surface equally. That suits central placement where a team works around the board, and the square outline packs a large area into a tidier footprint than a long board of the same capacity would need.
Q: How does the height adjustment work?
A: The frame raises and lowers the writing area by 210mm, taking the overall height from 1390mm to 1600mm. That sets the surface at an easy level whether people are seated or standing, so a shared board stays comfortable to use for everyone joining a session at the board.
Q: Does the board stay steady when written on?
A: Yes. A stability bar braces the base so the tall frame does not wobble, and the lockable castors hold the board firmly down in place once the wheels are parked. With the castors locked, the surface takes writing pressure or a leaning hand without creeping or rocking through a working session.
Q: Can the board move between rooms?
A: Yes. The board rolls on lockable castors, so the frame moves between a classroom, a team area or a ward and then locks steady once positioned. The steel and aluminium build keeps the weight manageable, so one person can reposition the board without needing a second pair of hands.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain with daily use?
A: No. The dry-wipe steel surface resists ghosting, so marker lifts away cleanly and no grey shadow builds up, even when the board is written on and wiped many times a day. A dry eraser handles routine cleaning, and a whiteboard cleaner restores the finish when a deeper clean is wanted.
Q: What is the difference between this and the MFW1290L?
A: Both are magnetic double-sided mobile boards on a height-adjustable frame. This board is a 1200 by 1200mm square, while the MFW1290L is 900 by 1200mm. Choose the square for even reach in group work where people gather on every side, or the smaller board for a more compact magnetic surface.
Q: Is the board suitable for an NHS ward or team area?
A: Yes. The magnetic surface holds printed rotas, pathways and notices on one face while the other takes live handover notes, and the board rolls to a staff area and locks steady for a briefing. The dry-wipe face wipes clean between sessions, and the frame adjusts in height to suit the room.
Q: Can it be used as a noticeboard as well as a whiteboard?
A: Yes. Because the steel faces are magnetic, the board doubles as a noticeboard, holding documents and visuals with magnets while still taking marker. A team can run an agenda on magnets down one side and capture the discussion in writing on the other, all on a single mobile board.
Q: Is this board available with free UK delivery?
A: Yes. The board ships with free UK mainland delivery. Displaysense has supplied UK schools, offices and NHS sites with display products since 1978, so you order from a UK display specialist. Bulk orders for several rooms can be arranged through our team for delivery together.

The dry-wipe surface erases cleanly without any ghosting, keeping notes and diagrams sharp right through the day. A five-year surface guarantee backs the board for the long term. Best suited for schools, team areas and healthcare settings where a group needs to write, plan and display on one mobile board.
Why a Magnetic Square Board Earns Its Place
- Write and hold on one surface: The magnetic steel face takes dry-wipe marker and holds magnets together, so a session can run live notes alongside pinned charts, memos and printouts without needing a separate noticeboard nearby.
- Even reach all round: A square shape gives the same writing space on every side, so a group gathered around the board shares the space equally rather than crowding toward the centre of a long surface that favours one position.
- Two full faces to work: Both sides are plain magnetic steel, so one face can hold prepared material while the other takes live input, and a long session simply turns the frame rather than wiping work away to make room.
- Set to the right height: The frame raises and lowers so the surface sits at a comfortable level for a standing presenter or a seated group, which keeps a shared board within easy reach for everyone taking part.
- Rolls, then holds firm: A stability bar braces the base and lockable castors let the board move room to room, then lock to keep the frame steady and safe to write against once the board reaches the spot.
- Clean and guaranteed: The dry-wipe steel surface lifts marker away without ghosting, and a five-year surface guarantee reflects a board chosen for steady daily use in demanding rooms.
Where This Square Magnetic Whiteboard Fits Best
| Team Huddles and Project Spaces | Working sessions mix live notes with reference material a team keeps to hand. A square steel face lets a group write up ideas and pin charts side by side, and the board rolls into the project space and locks steady for the meeting. |
| Classroom Zones | Teaching that splits a class into areas needs a board each zone can share. The even square surface suits pupils working from all sides, magnets hold worksheets and examples, and the board moves to whichever zone the lesson uses that day. |
| Breakout and Meeting Rooms | Breakout work swings between brainstorming and reviewing prepared material. One face can carry the agenda on magnets while the other takes the group's notes, so a single board covers both without anyone leaving to fetch a second surface. |
| Healthcare and Wards | Clinical teams pin rotas and pathways as well as writing live updates. A magnetic board rolled to a staff area holds printed notices on one side and takes handover notes on the other, and locking the castors keeps the frame steady through a briefing. |
| Training and Workshops | Running a course often means switching between prepared slides on paper and live working. Magnets hold the printed material on one face while the other is written on, and height adjustment sets the board for a standing trainer and a seated room. |
| Offices and Shared Areas | Departments that share equipment gain from one board that does several jobs. A square magnetic surface that writes, displays and moves covers planning, noticeboard duty and team meetings, so a single board serves a floor rather than three fixed ones. |
Need a Different Size?
For a more compact board, the 900 x 1200mm magnetic board is a step down in size. For a wider writing area, the 1200 x 1500mm magnetic board gives more room across.

The Displaysense MFW1212L is a Magnetic Landscape Mobile Whiteboard. A square double-sided magnetic dry-wipe whiteboard on a height-adjustable mobile frame with lockable castors and a stability bar, in a steel and aluminium frame, combining writing and magnet display from every side. Board size 1200mm W x 1200mm H, overall width 1240mm, overall height adjustable from 1390mm to 1600mm, square format. White magnetic steel dry-wipe surface, plain on both sides, height adjustment of 210mm, lockable castors, stability bar, five-year surface guarantee. Best suited for schools, team areas, breakout rooms and healthcare settings where a group writes, plans and displays on one mobile board. Also available in a smaller 900 x 1200mm size such as the MFW1290L and a larger 1200 x 1500mm size such as the MFW1215L. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978. Free UK mainland delivery.
What really sets this board apart is that the writing surface does two jobs at once. The steel face is magnetic, so the same area that takes dry-wipe marker also holds magnets, letting charts, printouts and memos sit on the board right beside handwritten notes. That combination makes a single surface serve as a whiteboard and a pinning surface at once, which suits planning work where prepared material and live writing belong together rather than split across two separate boards in a room.
The square proportion shapes how a group uses the board. Equal height and width give the same reach from any side, so people gathered around the surface share the space evenly instead of competing for the middle of a long board. A square also reads cleanly from any angle, which matters when the board sits in the centre of a room and a team works from all sides rather than facing the surface head-on from one place. And because the height matches the width, a generous writing area sits in a compact, near-square footprint, taking up far less floor space than a wide board holding the same amount would need along a wall.
The frame is built to move and to adjust. Height adjustment raises or lowers the writing area by 210mm, setting the surface so that people working at the board, seated or standing, can write comfortably. A stabiliser bar across the base keeps the board steady when written on or leaned on, and lockable castors carry the board between rooms before locking firmly in place. Built in steel and aluminium, the frame stays rigid enough for daily handling, yet light enough for one person to reposition without help.
The surface is finished for a long working life. A dry-wipe steel coating lets marker lift away cleanly, and because the face resists ghosting, the grey shadow that dulls cheaper boards does not build up even after months of daily writing and erasing. Made to take the steady demands of a busy school, office or clinical area, the board carries a five-year surface guarantee that backs a unit built for constant use rather than the occasional session.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Square Magnetic Whiteboard
Q: What is the best mobile board for writing and displaying together?
A: A magnetic mobile board, like the MFW1212L, does both at once. The 1200 by 1200mm steel surface works for both marker and magnets at the same time, so live written notes and pinned charts can share the one working face. The square format gives even reach all round, and the board is double-sided with a five-year surface guarantee.
Q: Is the whiteboard magnetic?
A: Yes. Both faces are plain magnetic steel, so the board holds magnets as well as taking dry-wipe marker. Charts, memos and printouts can be pinned to either side, sitting beside handwritten notes, which lets a single surface work as both a whiteboard and a noticeboard at the same time.
Q: Is the board double-sided?
A: Yes. The board carries two full plain magnetic faces to work across. Keep one face set with prepared reference material and use the reverse for live input, so a long session just rotates the board instead of rubbing work off, and a buyer gains twice the usable working area on the same patch of floor.
Q: Why choose a square board over a rectangular one?
A: A square offers identical reach on all four sides, so people standing around the board all use the surface equally. That suits central placement where a team works around the board, and the square outline packs a large area into a tidier footprint than a long board of the same capacity would need.
Q: How does the height adjustment work?
A: The frame raises and lowers the writing area by 210mm, taking the overall height from 1390mm to 1600mm. That sets the surface at an easy level whether people are seated or standing, so a shared board stays comfortable to use for everyone joining a session at the board.
Q: Does the board stay steady when written on?
A: Yes. A stability bar braces the base so the tall frame does not wobble, and the lockable castors hold the board firmly down in place once the wheels are parked. With the castors locked, the surface takes writing pressure or a leaning hand without creeping or rocking through a working session.
Q: Can the board move between rooms?
A: Yes. The board rolls on lockable castors, so the frame moves between a classroom, a team area or a ward and then locks steady once positioned. The steel and aluminium build keeps the weight manageable, so one person can reposition the board without needing a second pair of hands.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain with daily use?
A: No. The dry-wipe steel surface resists ghosting, so marker lifts away cleanly and no grey shadow builds up, even when the board is written on and wiped many times a day. A dry eraser handles routine cleaning, and a whiteboard cleaner restores the finish when a deeper clean is wanted.
Q: What is the difference between this and the MFW1290L?
A: Both are magnetic double-sided mobile boards on a height-adjustable frame. This board is a 1200 by 1200mm square, while the MFW1290L is 900 by 1200mm. Choose the square for even reach in group work where people gather on every side, or the smaller board for a more compact magnetic surface.
Q: Is the board suitable for an NHS ward or team area?
A: Yes. The magnetic surface holds printed rotas, pathways and notices on one face while the other takes live handover notes, and the board rolls to a staff area and locks steady for a briefing. The dry-wipe face wipes clean between sessions, and the frame adjusts in height to suit the room.
Q: Can it be used as a noticeboard as well as a whiteboard?
A: Yes. Because the steel faces are magnetic, the board doubles as a noticeboard, holding documents and visuals with magnets while still taking marker. A team can run an agenda on magnets down one side and capture the discussion in writing on the other, all on a single mobile board.
Q: Is this board available with free UK delivery?
A: Yes. The board ships with free UK mainland delivery. Displaysense has supplied UK schools, offices and NHS sites with display products since 1978, so you order from a UK display specialist. Bulk orders for several rooms can be arranged through our team for delivery together.
Guides to Magnetic Boards and Group Spaces
A board that writes and displays at once works best when the size, surface and setting are planned together. It helps to know how to choose the right whiteboard, how a shared display board suits a school or office, and how a clear layout supports a structured presentation. These guides cover choosing a board, planning display surfaces and presenting work in an ordered way.
Overview
A Square Magnetic Board for Writing and Display at Once
A board that a team gathers around should work the same from every side, and hold the things people bring along. The MFW1212L takes a square format so reach is even all round, and pairs that shape with a steel surface that holds magnets, so the board writes like a whiteboard and holds charts, memos and printouts like a noticeboard at the same time. Both faces are plain steel that holds magnets, giving two full surfaces to work across, so one side can stay set up with reference material while the other takes live notes. The square shape keeps the footprint tidy for a board this generous, and the steel surface means a planning session can mix written notes with pinned documents on the one face. Height adjustment raises or lowers the board so the surface suits a seated group or a standing presenter, while a stability bar and lockable castors let the board roll between rooms and then stand firm once parked.
