One Board Wide Enough for the Whole Room to Work On
When a meeting, a lesson or a planning session needs every idea visible at once, a small board forces people to rub things out before they are finished. The MFW1218L gives you the widest writing area in our landscape mobile range, so a full team can map a project, run a workshop or teach a class without running out of room. The double-sided magnetic steel surface takes dry-wipe pens and magnets on both faces, the frame rolls smoothly to wherever the work is happening and locks still once it gets there, and the height sets to suit a seated table or a standing presentation. It is the kind of board that disappears into the work rather than getting in the way of it. Best suited for classrooms, healthcare training rooms and busy offices where several people contribute at once and the board has to stay readable from the back of a large, full room.
Why Teams Choose This Wide-Format Board
- The widest writing space in the landscape range: The extra width lets a whole group add to a mind map, project plan or lesson at the same time, so nobody waits for space to clear and no idea gets wiped before its time. Ideal for high-engagement sessions in larger rooms.
- Magnetic steel surface holds prints and notes: The steel face takes magnets as well as dry-wipe pens, so printed handouts, photos, charts and sticky reference sheets sit alongside your written notes. Visual aids and live working share one single clear board instead of competing for wall space.
- Two usable sides, one footprint: Both faces are plain magnetic steel, so you can split content across them, give two presenters a side each, or keep a running record on one while you work freely on the other. Spin the board round and the second surface is ready.
- Height adjusts to the room and the people: A simple height adjustment lets you drop the board for seated table work or raise it so a standing presenter stays visible over people's heads. Children, wheelchair users and standing teams all get a comfortable working level.
- Rolls where the work is, then locks still: Lockable castors let one person move the board between rooms or rotate it through the day, then lock it firm. A reinforced stabiliser bar across the base keeps the wide frame steady so it does not rock or drift while people write.
- Built to keep its surface for years: The board carries a 5-year surface guarantee, so the steel keeps wiping clean and resisting ghosting through daily use in schools, wards and offices rather than greying and staining within months like budget boards do.
The Places This Board Earns Its Keep
| Schools, Colleges and Universities | Wide enough for a full worked example, a seating plan or a class brainstorm without rubbing anything out. Wheels it between classrooms and labs, and the height drops for younger pupils or rises for a teacher presenting to a full room. |
| Training Rooms and Workshops | Gives a trainer room to build a process out step by step while the group adds input on the wide surface. Magnets hold printed reference sheets and worked examples next to live notes, and the second side keeps a clean surface ready for the next exercise. |
| Offices and Project Teams | A shared surface for sprint planning, workflow mapping or pulling a campaign together in one place. Roll it into a meeting, lock the castors and let the whole team write at once, then move it to wherever the project lives that week without losing the work. |
| Healthcare and Clinical Settings | Supports ward handovers, staff briefings and patient-flow planning where information has to stay visible and easy to update through a shift. The wipe-clean steel surface suits busy clinical environments that need a board working reliably all day, every day. |
| Hospitality and Events Briefings | Sets out floor plans, rotas, run sheets and service notes for the team before doors open. Rolls out of the way during service and comes back for the next briefing without fuss, and the magnetic surface keeps printed schedules pinned where everyone sees them. |
| Community, Charity and Public Sector | A flexible planning surface for committee meetings, volunteer briefings and public workshops. One board moves between rooms and buildings, so a single purchase serves several groups across the week and earns its place many times over. |
Need a Different Size or a Non-Magnetic Option?
If the full width is more than your space allows, the next size down magnetic mobile whiteboard offers the same build in a narrower frame. If you do not need magnets, the non-magnetic version of this board gives you the same wide dry-wipe surface for less.

The Displaysense MFW1218L is a Magnetic Landscape Mobile Whiteboard, the widest board in the landscape range. Double-sided magnetic steel surface, plain on both faces, for dry-wipe writing and magnets. Writing surface 1800mm W x 1200mm H. Overall height adjustable from 1520mm to 1730mm, a 210mm range, overall width approximately 1840mm. Aluminium frame and steel surface, white finish. Freestanding with a reinforced stabiliser bar and lockable castors. 5-year surface guarantee. Suited to schools, training rooms, offices, healthcare and community settings. Also available as the 1200mm x 1500mm magnetic MFW1215L and the non-magnetic FWB1218L. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978.
A magnetic whiteboard works because of what sits underneath the white writing layer. The surface is a sheet of thin steel finished in a smooth, hard-wearing white coating. The coating is what your dry-wipe pen writes on and wipes off, while the steel beneath is what makes magnets grip. That two-part construction is why this board does two jobs at once: you write on it like any whiteboard, and you stick printed sheets, photos or notes to it with magnets at the same time. A board without the steel layer can only be written on, which is the single biggest practical difference between a magnetic and a non-magnetic board.
This is a double-sided board, and both faces are the same plain magnetic steel. That matters more than it first sounds. A single-sided board forces you to wipe before you can carry on, losing whatever was there. With two faces you can keep a finished plan on one side and start fresh on the other, hand a side each to two presenters, or rotate the board mid-session to reveal prepared content. The frame holds the board on a pivot so turning it round takes a second, and because the weight is balanced across the stabiliser bar the board stays put while you do it.
Mobility and stability usually pull against each other: a board light enough to move easily tends to wobble, and a board heavy enough to stay steady is hard to shift. This frame solves that with two separate features. Lockable castors let one person roll the board between rooms, then lock to stop it drifting once it is in place. A reinforced stabiliser bar runs across the base to widen the footprint and lower the centre of balance, so the wide upper board does not rock when several people lean in and write. You move it unlocked and work on it locked.
The height adjustment changes how the board fits the people using it rather than the board itself. The frame raises and lowers through a generous range, which is enough to shift the working surface between a comfortable seated level and a standing presentation level. Set it low and a group around a table can all reach the surface, or a class of younger children can write without stretching. Set it high and a standing presenter clears the heads of a seated audience so the board stays visible from the back. One board therefore suits very different rooms and groups without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Mobile Whiteboard
Q: Will magnets actually hold paper on the surface?
A: Yes. The writing surface is steel under the white coating, so standard whiteboard magnets grip firmly and hold several sheets of paper at once. You can pin printed handouts, photos or reference charts next to your written notes and they stay put until you move them. Use button or disc magnets for the strongest hold on heavier documents.
Q: Can one person move and set up the board?
A: Yes. The board rolls on lockable castors, so a single person can wheel it from room to room and into position without help or lifting. Once it is where you want it, you press the locks down with a foot and the wheels hold firm. There is no assembly needed each time, just unlock, roll and lock again.
Q: How is this different from the non-magnetic FWB1218L?
A: The two boards share the same wide 1800mm frame, double-sided design and mobile stand. The difference is the surface. This MFW1218L has a magnetic steel surface that holds magnets as well as dry-wipe pens, while the FWB1218L has a non-magnetic surface for writing only. Choose this one if you want to pin printed material to the board. Choose the non-magnetic version if you only ever write and want to spend less.
Q: Is the board too big for a normal classroom or meeting room?
A: The frame stands around 1840mm wide, so it needs a clear stretch of floor and a doorway it can roll through. In most classrooms, training rooms and meeting rooms that is no problem. If your space is tight, the narrower 1200mm x 1500mm MFW1215L gives you the same build in a smaller footprint while keeping the magnetic surface.
Q: What can I clean the surface with?
A: A dry cloth or whiteboard eraser handles day-to-day wiping. For a deeper clean, use a proper whiteboard cleaning spray rather than household cleaners, which can leave a film that makes pens skip. Avoid abrasive pads, as they can scratch the coating. Cleaned this way, the surface stays smooth and easy to wipe.
Q: Does the board come assembled?
A: The board arrives with the fixings needed to attach the surface to the frame and fit the castors. Assembly is straightforward and needs only basic tools. Once built, it stays assembled, so this is a one-time job rather than something you repeat. Most people have it ready to use within a short time of unpacking.
Q: How high does the writing surface sit?
A: The whole frame adjusts through a 210mm range, between 1520mm and 1730mm overall height. That lets you set the surface low for seated groups or children, or high for a standing presenter who needs to be seen over a seated audience. You set it once for the room and it holds at that height.
Q: Can I write on both sides at the same time?
A: Yes. Both faces are full magnetic steel surfaces, so two people can work back to back, or you can prepare content on one side before a session and rotate to reveal it. Spinning the board round takes a second, and the stabiliser keeps it steady while you do.
Q: Is this board suitable for children to use?
A: Yes. Lowered to its minimum height the surface sits at a comfortable level for younger pupils, and the locking castors and stabiliser bar keep it steady during use. As with any mobile classroom equipment, supervise younger children and keep the wheels locked while the board is in use.
Q: What does the 5-year guarantee cover?
A: The guarantee covers the writing surface against the faults that ruin cheaper boards, such as the coating wearing through or refusing to wipe clean under normal use. It reflects how the board is built to last in daily settings. Keep your proof of purchase and get in touch if you have any concern about the surface.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain over time?
A: Used with proper dry-wipe markers and wiped regularly, the surface resists the faint shadowing known as ghosting. Stubborn marks usually lift with whiteboard cleaner. Avoid leaving writing on the board for very long stretches and steer clear of permanent markers, and the surface stays clean and clear.
Q: Can I use it outdoors or in a damp area?
A: This is an indoor board. It is designed for classrooms, offices, training rooms and clinical spaces, not for outdoor use or permanently damp environments where moisture could affect the frame and fixings over time. For outdoor messaging you would want a weather-resistant signage product instead.
Guides for Whiteboards and Collaborative Workspaces
A mobile whiteboard is only as useful as the way it is chosen and placed. Picking the right surface for the room, sizing it to the group and setting up a space that helps people think together is what separates a board used daily from one left in a corner. These guides cover choosing and getting the most from boards in offices and schools.

- The widest writing space in the landscape range: The extra width lets a whole group add to a mind map, project plan or lesson at the same time, so nobody waits for space to clear and no idea gets wiped before its time. Ideal for high-engagement sessions in larger rooms.
- Magnetic steel surface holds prints and notes: The steel face takes magnets as well as dry-wipe pens, so printed handouts, photos, charts and sticky reference sheets sit alongside your written notes. Visual aids and live working share one single clear board instead of competing for wall space.
- Two usable sides, one footprint: Both faces are plain magnetic steel, so you can split content across them, give two presenters a side each, or keep a running record on one while you work freely on the other. Spin the board round and the second surface is ready.
- Height adjusts to the room and the people: A simple height adjustment lets you drop the board for seated table work or raise it so a standing presenter stays visible over people's heads. Children, wheelchair users and standing teams all get a comfortable working level.
- Rolls where the work is, then locks still: Lockable castors let one person move the board between rooms or rotate it through the day, then lock it firm. A reinforced stabiliser bar across the base keeps the wide frame steady so it does not rock or drift while people write.
- Built to keep its surface for years: The board carries a 5-year surface guarantee, so the steel keeps wiping clean and resisting ghosting through daily use in schools, wards and offices rather than greying and staining within months like budget boards do.
The Places This Board Earns Its Keep
| Schools, Colleges and Universities | Wide enough for a full worked example, a seating plan or a class brainstorm without rubbing anything out. Wheels it between classrooms and labs, and the height drops for younger pupils or rises for a teacher presenting to a full room. |
| Training Rooms and Workshops | Gives a trainer room to build a process out step by step while the group adds input on the wide surface. Magnets hold printed reference sheets and worked examples next to live notes, and the second side keeps a clean surface ready for the next exercise. |
| Offices and Project Teams | A shared surface for sprint planning, workflow mapping or pulling a campaign together in one place. Roll it into a meeting, lock the castors and let the whole team write at once, then move it to wherever the project lives that week without losing the work. |
| Healthcare and Clinical Settings | Supports ward handovers, staff briefings and patient-flow planning where information has to stay visible and easy to update through a shift. The wipe-clean steel surface suits busy clinical environments that need a board working reliably all day, every day. |
| Hospitality and Events Briefings | Sets out floor plans, rotas, run sheets and service notes for the team before doors open. Rolls out of the way during service and comes back for the next briefing without fuss, and the magnetic surface keeps printed schedules pinned where everyone sees them. |
| Community, Charity and Public Sector | A flexible planning surface for committee meetings, volunteer briefings and public workshops. One board moves between rooms and buildings, so a single purchase serves several groups across the week and earns its place many times over. |
Need a Different Size or a Non-Magnetic Option?
If the full width is more than your space allows, the next size down magnetic mobile whiteboard offers the same build in a narrower frame. If you do not need magnets, the non-magnetic version of this board gives you the same wide dry-wipe surface for less.

The Displaysense MFW1218L is a Magnetic Landscape Mobile Whiteboard, the widest board in the landscape range. Double-sided magnetic steel surface, plain on both faces, for dry-wipe writing and magnets. Writing surface 1800mm W x 1200mm H. Overall height adjustable from 1520mm to 1730mm, a 210mm range, overall width approximately 1840mm. Aluminium frame and steel surface, white finish. Freestanding with a reinforced stabiliser bar and lockable castors. 5-year surface guarantee. Suited to schools, training rooms, offices, healthcare and community settings. Also available as the 1200mm x 1500mm magnetic MFW1215L and the non-magnetic FWB1218L. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978.
A magnetic whiteboard works because of what sits underneath the white writing layer. The surface is a sheet of thin steel finished in a smooth, hard-wearing white coating. The coating is what your dry-wipe pen writes on and wipes off, while the steel beneath is what makes magnets grip. That two-part construction is why this board does two jobs at once: you write on it like any whiteboard, and you stick printed sheets, photos or notes to it with magnets at the same time. A board without the steel layer can only be written on, which is the single biggest practical difference between a magnetic and a non-magnetic board.
This is a double-sided board, and both faces are the same plain magnetic steel. That matters more than it first sounds. A single-sided board forces you to wipe before you can carry on, losing whatever was there. With two faces you can keep a finished plan on one side and start fresh on the other, hand a side each to two presenters, or rotate the board mid-session to reveal prepared content. The frame holds the board on a pivot so turning it round takes a second, and because the weight is balanced across the stabiliser bar the board stays put while you do it.
Mobility and stability usually pull against each other: a board light enough to move easily tends to wobble, and a board heavy enough to stay steady is hard to shift. This frame solves that with two separate features. Lockable castors let one person roll the board between rooms, then lock to stop it drifting once it is in place. A reinforced stabiliser bar runs across the base to widen the footprint and lower the centre of balance, so the wide upper board does not rock when several people lean in and write. You move it unlocked and work on it locked.
The height adjustment changes how the board fits the people using it rather than the board itself. The frame raises and lowers through a generous range, which is enough to shift the working surface between a comfortable seated level and a standing presentation level. Set it low and a group around a table can all reach the surface, or a class of younger children can write without stretching. Set it high and a standing presenter clears the heads of a seated audience so the board stays visible from the back. One board therefore suits very different rooms and groups without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Mobile Whiteboard
Q: Will magnets actually hold paper on the surface?
A: Yes. The writing surface is steel under the white coating, so standard whiteboard magnets grip firmly and hold several sheets of paper at once. You can pin printed handouts, photos or reference charts next to your written notes and they stay put until you move them. Use button or disc magnets for the strongest hold on heavier documents.
Q: Can one person move and set up the board?
A: Yes. The board rolls on lockable castors, so a single person can wheel it from room to room and into position without help or lifting. Once it is where you want it, you press the locks down with a foot and the wheels hold firm. There is no assembly needed each time, just unlock, roll and lock again.
Q: How is this different from the non-magnetic FWB1218L?
A: The two boards share the same wide 1800mm frame, double-sided design and mobile stand. The difference is the surface. This MFW1218L has a magnetic steel surface that holds magnets as well as dry-wipe pens, while the FWB1218L has a non-magnetic surface for writing only. Choose this one if you want to pin printed material to the board. Choose the non-magnetic version if you only ever write and want to spend less.
Q: Is the board too big for a normal classroom or meeting room?
A: The frame stands around 1840mm wide, so it needs a clear stretch of floor and a doorway it can roll through. In most classrooms, training rooms and meeting rooms that is no problem. If your space is tight, the narrower 1200mm x 1500mm MFW1215L gives you the same build in a smaller footprint while keeping the magnetic surface.
Q: What can I clean the surface with?
A: A dry cloth or whiteboard eraser handles day-to-day wiping. For a deeper clean, use a proper whiteboard cleaning spray rather than household cleaners, which can leave a film that makes pens skip. Avoid abrasive pads, as they can scratch the coating. Cleaned this way, the surface stays smooth and easy to wipe.
Q: Does the board come assembled?
A: The board arrives with the fixings needed to attach the surface to the frame and fit the castors. Assembly is straightforward and needs only basic tools. Once built, it stays assembled, so this is a one-time job rather than something you repeat. Most people have it ready to use within a short time of unpacking.
Q: How high does the writing surface sit?
A: The whole frame adjusts through a 210mm range, between 1520mm and 1730mm overall height. That lets you set the surface low for seated groups or children, or high for a standing presenter who needs to be seen over a seated audience. You set it once for the room and it holds at that height.
Q: Can I write on both sides at the same time?
A: Yes. Both faces are full magnetic steel surfaces, so two people can work back to back, or you can prepare content on one side before a session and rotate to reveal it. Spinning the board round takes a second, and the stabiliser keeps it steady while you do.
Q: Is this board suitable for children to use?
A: Yes. Lowered to its minimum height the surface sits at a comfortable level for younger pupils, and the locking castors and stabiliser bar keep it steady during use. As with any mobile classroom equipment, supervise younger children and keep the wheels locked while the board is in use.
Q: What does the 5-year guarantee cover?
A: The guarantee covers the writing surface against the faults that ruin cheaper boards, such as the coating wearing through or refusing to wipe clean under normal use. It reflects how the board is built to last in daily settings. Keep your proof of purchase and get in touch if you have any concern about the surface.
Q: Will the surface ghost or stain over time?
A: Used with proper dry-wipe markers and wiped regularly, the surface resists the faint shadowing known as ghosting. Stubborn marks usually lift with whiteboard cleaner. Avoid leaving writing on the board for very long stretches and steer clear of permanent markers, and the surface stays clean and clear.
Q: Can I use it outdoors or in a damp area?
A: This is an indoor board. It is designed for classrooms, offices, training rooms and clinical spaces, not for outdoor use or permanently damp environments where moisture could affect the frame and fixings over time. For outdoor messaging you would want a weather-resistant signage product instead.
Guides for Whiteboards and Collaborative Workspaces
A mobile whiteboard is only as useful as the way it is chosen and placed. Picking the right surface for the room, sizing it to the group and setting up a space that helps people think together is what separates a board used daily from one left in a corner. These guides cover choosing and getting the most from boards in offices and schools.
Overview
One Board Wide Enough for the Whole Room to Work On
When a meeting, a lesson or a planning session needs every idea visible at once, a small board forces people to rub things out before they are finished. The MFW1218L gives you the widest writing area in our landscape mobile range, so a full team can map a project, run a workshop or teach a class without running out of room. The double-sided magnetic steel surface takes dry-wipe pens and magnets on both faces, the frame rolls smoothly to wherever the work is happening and locks still once it gets there, and the height sets to suit a seated table or a standing presentation. It is the kind of board that disappears into the work rather than getting in the way of it. Best suited for classrooms, healthcare training rooms and busy offices where several people contribute at once and the board has to stay readable from the back of a large, full room.
