Need help choosing the right pin board or notice board?

If you are not sure which board is best for your space, consider the surface and the environment. For a general office or school, a felt pin board in your preferred colour is the most popular and versatile choice. For a high-traffic training room or gym, a carpet pin board will outlast felt under heavy daily use. For a public display area where notices need to be protected, a lockable cabinet pin board is the right solution. If you also need a writing surface, our combination boards pair a pin board with a whiteboard or chalkboard in a single frame. Still not sure? Call us on (011) 440 1506 or WhatsApp (+27) 76 056 4567 and we will point you in the right direction.

FAQ

What is a pin board?
A pin board (also called a notice board, bulletin board or display board) is a surface designed to hold pinned notes, photos, documents and other materials. They are used in offices, schools, churches and public areas to display information that changes regularly. BestBoard manufactures pin boards in felt, cork, carpet and other surfaces in a wide range of sizes.

What is the difference between a pin board and a notice board?
Nothing — they are the same product. In South Africa the terms pin board, notice board, bulletin board and display board are all used interchangeably to describe a pinnable display surface. BestBoard manufactures and sells the full range under both names.

What is the difference between a felt, cork and carpet pin board?
Felt boards are the most popular choice — soft, available in 23 colours and easy to pin into. Cork boards have a natural texture, are self-healing after pins are removed, and suit professional or home office environments. Carpet boards use a tight loop-pile surface that is more durable than felt for high-traffic use in training rooms, gyms and commercial settings.

What sizes do your pin boards come in?
BestBoard pin boards are available in 13+ standard sizes from A4 (210×297mm) up to 1200×3000mm. Cabinet pin boards are available in 4 sizes from 600×900mm to 1200×2000mm. Custom sizes are available on request — contact us for a quote.

Yes. BestBoard delivers all pin boards and notice boards nationwide — Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban, Port Elizabeth and across South Africa. Free delivery applies to all orders over R950.
