A Tall Red Noticeboard That Gets Noticed
A tall stripe of red at the end of a corridor is seen long before anyone is close enough to read it, which is the whole point of an upright red board. The warm, high visibility colour pulls the eye to rotas, alerts and safety notices clear of the wall, while the felt takes push pins and Velcro hook tape through constant change. Standing taller than it is wide, it puts a column of must-reads in a narrow run of wall that a landscape board would leave bare. Set high in a tall column, the most urgent notice is the first thing anyone sees. Best suited for workshops, corridors and busy entrances where a tall board has to be noticed at a glance.
What This Bold Portrait Red Felt Board Brings
- Quick to keep current. A push pin drops the day's notice onto the felt and lifts straight off, while Velcro hook tape holds a heavier alert flat, so a tall board near a busy route never falls behind. The surface springs back between changes, keeping a red column sharp through constant turnover. Old notices never linger on a board this quick. Stale notices never get the chance to pile up.
- A tall column that gets read. Standing upright at the end of a corridor or beside a doorway, the board catches the eye at full height as people approach, its notices stacked in a column rather than lost across a wide wall. The shape puts a run of must-reads right in the line of travel. At full height it lands in the line of travel. Full height puts it square in the eyeline.
- Red that pulls the eye. Warm, high visibility red carries down a passage and across a room, lifting alerts, rotas and reminders clear of everything around them. Against neutral walls a tall red board becomes the obvious place to look, which is the whole point where a notice cannot be missed. Among neutral walls it is the obvious place to look. A single red column draws the first glance.
- A clean, frameless face. The red felt folds over the edges for a vertical face with nothing boxing it in, sitting flush to the wall. Flush sides and ends let another board stack above or sit alongside, so a busy area can carry a taller run without a visible break. A taller run goes up with no break between boards. Stack two and the run grows with no gap.
- Light to fit in a tight spot. Even at full height the board is light, so one person can stand it in a cramped doorway or a narrow recess, hold it plumb and fix it single-handed. It asks only for ordinary tools and goes up in minutes, ready to take the day's notices. Even a cramped doorway is no obstacle to fitting it. A tight recess is no obstacle to fitting it.
- Anchors to suit the wall. The fixings are left for you to choose, so the anchor matches whatever the board is going into, from plasterboard to brick, for a firmer hold than a single supplied fitting on a tall panel. A 28-day returns window stands behind the order for reassurance. A firmer hold matters most on a tall, busy board. A surer hold counts on a tall, busy board.
Where a Tall Red Pinboard Earns Its Place
| Workshop Doorways | Beside a workshop door, a tall red board keeps safety notices and job sheets at full height where everyone passes. The upright shape uses a narrow strip of wall, and the bold colour lifts the essentials clear. No one passes the door without seeing safety first. |
| Gym Corridors | Along a gym passage, a tall red board shows timetables and rules as members head to a class. The high visibility colour carries down the corridor, and the upright format suits the wall to hand. Members catch the timetable on the way to class. |
| Site Cabin Walls | On a cabin wall, a tall red board keeps permits and safety notices front and centre in a tight space. The portrait shape fits where a wide board could not, and the bold red keeps essentials seen. Permits stay seen where every inch counts. |
| Stairwell Notices | On a stairwell wall, a tall red board catches the eye as people move between floors, lifting alerts clear of the traffic. The upright format suits the height, and the colour makes the board impossible to miss. Alerts register before anyone reaches the next floor. |
| Entrance Lobbies | In a busy entrance, a tall red board greets people with the notices they need to see first, at full standing height. The bold colour pulls attention the moment they walk in. People see what matters the moment they arrive. |
| Studio Door Bays | Beside a studio door, a tall red board holds class times and rules in the eyeline of everyone arriving. The upright shape uses a slim wall, and the warm red keeps the information easy to spot. Class times meet members right at the door. |
After a Shorter Red Board?
If the wall is shorter, the Unframed Red Felt Noticeboard 900mm x 600mm gives the same red felt in a half-height board that stacks flush beneath this one. The range also runs to grey, green and blue. Delivery across the UK mainland is free.
Call us on 01279460460 or send us your requirements and we will get back to you.
NB2209R is an Unframed Red Felt Noticeboard from Displaysense. With no frame at the edges, the felt wrapped panels line up into a single continuous display. Dimensions 1200mm H x 900mm W. Weight 4kg. Warm red felt surface that holds both push pins and Velcro hook tape, mounted in portrait or landscape, with fixings chosen to suit the wall. Specified by schools, reception areas, offices, sports halls and public spaces across the UK. Also available in grey, green and blue, and in sizes from 900mm by 600mm up to 2400mm wide. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978. Free UK delivery.
The anchors are left for you to pick, because the right one depends entirely on what the board is going onto, a stud wall, brickwork or plasterboard. A fitting chosen to match that holds a portrait board far more firmly than a single all-purpose plug, and the board itself is light enough to lift and level without a second person. Returns stay open for 28 days, so the order carries no risk. Fixing matters a shade more on a board this often checked, since a notice nobody can trust to hang straight soon stops being read.
Nothing on a wall competes with red, and on a busy upright board that is exactly the intention. Stood by a door or along a corridor, it pulls the eye to the rotas, alerts and safety notices that cannot be missed, lending even a narrow strip of board real presence. Where attention is the job, the colour does half of it on its own. Set against neutral walls, one red column draws every glance toward the notices that genuinely cannot wait. A flash of red at the end of a corridor reaches people before they are close enough to read a word, which is just when an alert needs to register with someone.
Updating it is fast, whichever fixing a notice needs. A push pin drops paper onto the felt and lifts straight off again, and Velcro hook tape holds a lighter sign that has to move without leaving a hole. The pile springs back between changes, so a hard-worked column keeps its sharp red face. On a board read in passing at the start of a shift, that speed is what keeps the information live and the old notices gone. Nothing has to be unscrewed or prised off, so even a board that turns over daily stays quick to keep current.
Underneath the colour, the form is what matters here, a portrait board, taller than wide, for the upright runs of wall a landscape one cannot fill. It is a single sheet of unframed felt, the red wrapped over the edges and fixed behind, a clean face from head to foot. Beside an entrance or in a corridor, it stands a tall display where the room has height to spare. Light and compact, a single person can raise it and set it plumb, putting the must-reads where the traffic is. Stood in a doorway or a passage, it carries a full column of notices in the kind of narrow space a wide board would skip. That reach into tight spots is what makes red worth choosing where a notice truly cannot be allowed to hide from anyone passing.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Colour / Finish | Red felt | A bold, high visibility ground that pushes notices forward, with a deep tone that helps mask the pinholes and marks regular use leaves over time. |
| Board Size | 900mm (W) x 1200mm (H) | A tall portrait format for narrow wall runs and corridors that still gives a generous, eye catching area to fill with notices. |
| Weight | 4kg | Light enough for one person to carry, raise and steady on the wall without help or any lifting gear, even at this larger size. |
| Surface Type | Non woven felt | Matted fibres clamp onto push pins and snag Velcro hook tape, then settle back over the gap when fixings come away, so the face stays even. |
| Fixing Method | Push pins and Velcro hook tape | Choose pins for paper or Velcro for lightweight, movable pieces, and switch between the two as the items on a display are refreshed. |
| Frame | Unframed, fabric wrapped edges | Only a hairline seam shows where panels meet, so a row of boards reads as one bold, continuous display rather than a set of separate panels. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Built around portrait, yet it turns landscape with ease to fit the wall and the layout you happen to have in front of you. |
| Mounting | Wall mounted | Hangs flat and flush against the wall for a fixed, neat install that leaves the floor of a busy room completely clear. |
| Wall Fixings | Not included | Pick the fittings that suit your wall, from plasterboard to masonry or a partition, for a firm and lasting hold whatever the wall is made of. |
| Display Area | Large portrait surface | Extra height makes space for longer rotas, layered documents or a full set of notices kept together in a single bold block. |
| Environment | Indoor | Made for interior walls in schools, offices and public buildings, clear of the rain, wind and weather that an outdoor sign is built to face. |
| Colour Options | Red, grey, green, blue | Pick a shade to suit the room, or use colour to flag a department, year group or zone so people learn where to look and spot it fast. |

Frequently Asked Questions About This Felt Noticeboard
Q: Which large felt noticeboard makes notices stand out best?
A: For notices that have to be seen, the NB2209R unframed red felt noticeboard is a strong choice. Warm red pulls the eye straight to the wall, and the tall portrait surface gives room for rotas, deadlines and key messages. With no frame, several boards align into one continuous display along a corridor or wall.
Q: How do frameless felt boards join without a visible edge?
A: On an unframed board the felt folds around each panel edge and fixes at the back, so the front shows no border. Set two boards together and their fabric edges meet along a slim seam, reading as one surface. A framed board breaks this up, since the raised trim sits above the felt between panels.
Q: Can the felt take Velcro as well as drawing pins?
A: The felt face grips both drawing pins and Velcro hook tape, so each item can go up whichever way suits. Pins hold paper, while Velcro suits lightweight or movable pieces that should leave no hole. Both come away cleanly from the dense felt when a display is changed, leaving the surface ready.
Q: Does a red board suit a school or reception area?
A: Schools and reception areas both gain from a bold board. A red surface makes deadlines, house points and visitor notices impossible to miss, and the matt felt keeps them readable. Several panels tile together where one runs short of room, building a larger high visibility wall for a whole class or foyer.
Q: Is this board a good fit for a sports hall or community space?
A: Sports halls and community spaces suit this felt board well. Fixtures, results and group notices stand out across a busy room in a strong colour, and the hard wearing felt takes constant changes and many hands. The tall shape fits the slim wall runs these venues often have.
Q: Does this board include wall fixings?
A: Wall fixings are not supplied with this board, so the fittings can be matched to the wall, from plasterboard to brick or block. A lightweight panel mounts with no specialist tools, so fixing the board securely with the right fittings stays a quick, simple job for any team.
Q: What are the size and weight of this board?
A: This noticeboard is 900mm wide and 1200mm high, and weighs 4kg. The tall portrait shape suits narrow walls and corridors while still giving a bold, generous area. At 4kg the board is light enough for one person to lift and hold while fixing in place. The red felt surface takes both pins and Velcro for everyday use.
Q: How does the NB2209R differ from the smaller NB2206R?
A: These two differ only in size. The larger board is the 900 by 1200mm panel, while the NB2206R is the compact 900 by 600mm version. Both are unframed red felt panels that take pins and Velcro and tile together. Choose the larger for more impact, or the smaller for a tighter wall.
Q: Is this board meant to hang portrait or landscape?
A: Both orientations suit this board. The 900 by 1200mm panel is designed for portrait use on a tall, narrow wall, yet hangs landscape for a broader, lower spread. A frameless panel has no fixed top or bottom, so the leading edge is simply whichever you pick when mounting the board on the wall.
Q: Will a bold red board still be easy to read?
A: A matt felt finish keeps a red board readable, since the surface does not bounce overhead lighting back at the reader. Black text and images stand out sharply against the warm ground, so a notice reads clearly from across a busy room or corridor rather than being lost in the colour, even across a large room.
Q: Is this board sold with UK delivery and returns?
A: Every order ships across the UK and is covered by a 28 day returns policy. Trusted since 1978, Displaysense supplies noticeboards to schools, offices and public bodies nationwide, so the board comes from an established source rather than a one off seller.
Q: What colours and sizes does this board come in?
A: This 900 by 1200mm board also comes in grey, green and blue, and the wider unframed felt range runs from 900 by 600mm up to 2400 by 1200mm. The grey NB2209GY suits a more neutral, understated setting. Whatever the colour, every panel meets on the same frameless edge that lets boards tile together.

A Tall Red Noticeboard That Gets Noticed
A tall stripe of red at the end of a corridor is seen long before anyone is close enough to read it, which is the whole point of an upright red board. The warm, high visibility colour pulls the eye to rotas, alerts and safety notices clear of the wall, while the felt takes push pins and Velcro hook tape through constant change. Standing taller than it is wide, it puts a column of must-reads in a narrow run of wall that a landscape board would leave bare. Set high in a tall column, the most urgent notice is the first thing anyone sees. Best suited for workshops, corridors and busy entrances where a tall board has to be noticed at a glance.
What This Bold Portrait Red Felt Board Brings
- Quick to keep current. A push pin drops the day's notice onto the felt and lifts straight off, while Velcro hook tape holds a heavier alert flat, so a tall board near a busy route never falls behind. The surface springs back between changes, keeping a red column sharp through constant turnover. Old notices never linger on a board this quick. Stale notices never get the chance to pile up.
- A tall column that gets read. Standing upright at the end of a corridor or beside a doorway, the board catches the eye at full height as people approach, its notices stacked in a column rather than lost across a wide wall. The shape puts a run of must-reads right in the line of travel. At full height it lands in the line of travel. Full height puts it square in the eyeline.
- Red that pulls the eye. Warm, high visibility red carries down a passage and across a room, lifting alerts, rotas and reminders clear of everything around them. Against neutral walls a tall red board becomes the obvious place to look, which is the whole point where a notice cannot be missed. Among neutral walls it is the obvious place to look. A single red column draws the first glance.
- A clean, frameless face. The red felt folds over the edges for a vertical face with nothing boxing it in, sitting flush to the wall. Flush sides and ends let another board stack above or sit alongside, so a busy area can carry a taller run without a visible break. A taller run goes up with no break between boards. Stack two and the run grows with no gap.
- Light to fit in a tight spot. Even at full height the board is light, so one person can stand it in a cramped doorway or a narrow recess, hold it plumb and fix it single-handed. It asks only for ordinary tools and goes up in minutes, ready to take the day's notices. Even a cramped doorway is no obstacle to fitting it. A tight recess is no obstacle to fitting it.
- Anchors to suit the wall. The fixings are left for you to choose, so the anchor matches whatever the board is going into, from plasterboard to brick, for a firmer hold than a single supplied fitting on a tall panel. A 28-day returns window stands behind the order for reassurance. A firmer hold matters most on a tall, busy board. A surer hold counts on a tall, busy board.
Where a Tall Red Pinboard Earns Its Place
| Workshop Doorways | Beside a workshop door, a tall red board keeps safety notices and job sheets at full height where everyone passes. The upright shape uses a narrow strip of wall, and the bold colour lifts the essentials clear. No one passes the door without seeing safety first. |
| Gym Corridors | Along a gym passage, a tall red board shows timetables and rules as members head to a class. The high visibility colour carries down the corridor, and the upright format suits the wall to hand. Members catch the timetable on the way to class. |
| Site Cabin Walls | On a cabin wall, a tall red board keeps permits and safety notices front and centre in a tight space. The portrait shape fits where a wide board could not, and the bold red keeps essentials seen. Permits stay seen where every inch counts. |
| Stairwell Notices | On a stairwell wall, a tall red board catches the eye as people move between floors, lifting alerts clear of the traffic. The upright format suits the height, and the colour makes the board impossible to miss. Alerts register before anyone reaches the next floor. |
| Entrance Lobbies | In a busy entrance, a tall red board greets people with the notices they need to see first, at full standing height. The bold colour pulls attention the moment they walk in. People see what matters the moment they arrive. |
| Studio Door Bays | Beside a studio door, a tall red board holds class times and rules in the eyeline of everyone arriving. The upright shape uses a slim wall, and the warm red keeps the information easy to spot. Class times meet members right at the door. |
After a Shorter Red Board?
If the wall is shorter, the Unframed Red Felt Noticeboard 900mm x 600mm gives the same red felt in a half-height board that stacks flush beneath this one. The range also runs to grey, green and blue. Delivery across the UK mainland is free.
Call us on 01279460460 or send us your requirements and we will get back to you.
NB2209R is an Unframed Red Felt Noticeboard from Displaysense. With no frame at the edges, the felt wrapped panels line up into a single continuous display. Dimensions 1200mm H x 900mm W. Weight 4kg. Warm red felt surface that holds both push pins and Velcro hook tape, mounted in portrait or landscape, with fixings chosen to suit the wall. Specified by schools, reception areas, offices, sports halls and public spaces across the UK. Also available in grey, green and blue, and in sizes from 900mm by 600mm up to 2400mm wide. Displaysense, UK display product specialists since 1978. Free UK delivery.
The anchors are left for you to pick, because the right one depends entirely on what the board is going onto, a stud wall, brickwork or plasterboard. A fitting chosen to match that holds a portrait board far more firmly than a single all-purpose plug, and the board itself is light enough to lift and level without a second person. Returns stay open for 28 days, so the order carries no risk. Fixing matters a shade more on a board this often checked, since a notice nobody can trust to hang straight soon stops being read.
Nothing on a wall competes with red, and on a busy upright board that is exactly the intention. Stood by a door or along a corridor, it pulls the eye to the rotas, alerts and safety notices that cannot be missed, lending even a narrow strip of board real presence. Where attention is the job, the colour does half of it on its own. Set against neutral walls, one red column draws every glance toward the notices that genuinely cannot wait. A flash of red at the end of a corridor reaches people before they are close enough to read a word, which is just when an alert needs to register with someone.
Updating it is fast, whichever fixing a notice needs. A push pin drops paper onto the felt and lifts straight off again, and Velcro hook tape holds a lighter sign that has to move without leaving a hole. The pile springs back between changes, so a hard-worked column keeps its sharp red face. On a board read in passing at the start of a shift, that speed is what keeps the information live and the old notices gone. Nothing has to be unscrewed or prised off, so even a board that turns over daily stays quick to keep current.
Underneath the colour, the form is what matters here, a portrait board, taller than wide, for the upright runs of wall a landscape one cannot fill. It is a single sheet of unframed felt, the red wrapped over the edges and fixed behind, a clean face from head to foot. Beside an entrance or in a corridor, it stands a tall display where the room has height to spare. Light and compact, a single person can raise it and set it plumb, putting the must-reads where the traffic is. Stood in a doorway or a passage, it carries a full column of notices in the kind of narrow space a wide board would skip. That reach into tight spots is what makes red worth choosing where a notice truly cannot be allowed to hide from anyone passing.

| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Colour / Finish | Red felt | A bold, high visibility ground that pushes notices forward, with a deep tone that helps mask the pinholes and marks regular use leaves over time. |
| Board Size | 900mm (W) x 1200mm (H) | A tall portrait format for narrow wall runs and corridors that still gives a generous, eye catching area to fill with notices. |
| Weight | 4kg | Light enough for one person to carry, raise and steady on the wall without help or any lifting gear, even at this larger size. |
| Surface Type | Non woven felt | Matted fibres clamp onto push pins and snag Velcro hook tape, then settle back over the gap when fixings come away, so the face stays even. |
| Fixing Method | Push pins and Velcro hook tape | Choose pins for paper or Velcro for lightweight, movable pieces, and switch between the two as the items on a display are refreshed. |
| Frame | Unframed, fabric wrapped edges | Only a hairline seam shows where panels meet, so a row of boards reads as one bold, continuous display rather than a set of separate panels. |
| Orientation | Portrait or landscape | Built around portrait, yet it turns landscape with ease to fit the wall and the layout you happen to have in front of you. |
| Mounting | Wall mounted | Hangs flat and flush against the wall for a fixed, neat install that leaves the floor of a busy room completely clear. |
| Wall Fixings | Not included | Pick the fittings that suit your wall, from plasterboard to masonry or a partition, for a firm and lasting hold whatever the wall is made of. |
| Display Area | Large portrait surface | Extra height makes space for longer rotas, layered documents or a full set of notices kept together in a single bold block. |
| Environment | Indoor | Made for interior walls in schools, offices and public buildings, clear of the rain, wind and weather that an outdoor sign is built to face. |
| Colour Options | Red, grey, green, blue | Pick a shade to suit the room, or use colour to flag a department, year group or zone so people learn where to look and spot it fast. |

Frequently Asked Questions About This Felt Noticeboard
Q: Which large felt noticeboard makes notices stand out best?
A: For notices that have to be seen, the NB2209R unframed red felt noticeboard is a strong choice. Warm red pulls the eye straight to the wall, and the tall portrait surface gives room for rotas, deadlines and key messages. With no frame, several boards align into one continuous display along a corridor or wall.
Q: How do frameless felt boards join without a visible edge?
A: On an unframed board the felt folds around each panel edge and fixes at the back, so the front shows no border. Set two boards together and their fabric edges meet along a slim seam, reading as one surface. A framed board breaks this up, since the raised trim sits above the felt between panels.
Q: Can the felt take Velcro as well as drawing pins?
A: The felt face grips both drawing pins and Velcro hook tape, so each item can go up whichever way suits. Pins hold paper, while Velcro suits lightweight or movable pieces that should leave no hole. Both come away cleanly from the dense felt when a display is changed, leaving the surface ready.
Q: Does a red board suit a school or reception area?
A: Schools and reception areas both gain from a bold board. A red surface makes deadlines, house points and visitor notices impossible to miss, and the matt felt keeps them readable. Several panels tile together where one runs short of room, building a larger high visibility wall for a whole class or foyer.
Q: Is this board a good fit for a sports hall or community space?
A: Sports halls and community spaces suit this felt board well. Fixtures, results and group notices stand out across a busy room in a strong colour, and the hard wearing felt takes constant changes and many hands. The tall shape fits the slim wall runs these venues often have.
Q: Does this board include wall fixings?
A: Wall fixings are not supplied with this board, so the fittings can be matched to the wall, from plasterboard to brick or block. A lightweight panel mounts with no specialist tools, so fixing the board securely with the right fittings stays a quick, simple job for any team.
Q: What are the size and weight of this board?
A: This noticeboard is 900mm wide and 1200mm high, and weighs 4kg. The tall portrait shape suits narrow walls and corridors while still giving a bold, generous area. At 4kg the board is light enough for one person to lift and hold while fixing in place. The red felt surface takes both pins and Velcro for everyday use.
Q: How does the NB2209R differ from the smaller NB2206R?
A: These two differ only in size. The larger board is the 900 by 1200mm panel, while the NB2206R is the compact 900 by 600mm version. Both are unframed red felt panels that take pins and Velcro and tile together. Choose the larger for more impact, or the smaller for a tighter wall.
Q: Is this board meant to hang portrait or landscape?
A: Both orientations suit this board. The 900 by 1200mm panel is designed for portrait use on a tall, narrow wall, yet hangs landscape for a broader, lower spread. A frameless panel has no fixed top or bottom, so the leading edge is simply whichever you pick when mounting the board on the wall.
Q: Will a bold red board still be easy to read?
A: A matt felt finish keeps a red board readable, since the surface does not bounce overhead lighting back at the reader. Black text and images stand out sharply against the warm ground, so a notice reads clearly from across a busy room or corridor rather than being lost in the colour, even across a large room.
Q: Is this board sold with UK delivery and returns?
A: Every order ships across the UK and is covered by a 28 day returns policy. Trusted since 1978, Displaysense supplies noticeboards to schools, offices and public bodies nationwide, so the board comes from an established source rather than a one off seller.
Q: What colours and sizes does this board come in?
A: This 900 by 1200mm board also comes in grey, green and blue, and the wider unframed felt range runs from 900 by 600mm up to 2400 by 1200mm. The grey NB2209GY suits a more neutral, understated setting. Whatever the colour, every panel meets on the same frameless edge that lets boards tile together.
