Dart board cabinets

You have just got your dart board, now how do you hang it? You could just hang it on the wall, or much better you could mount your dart board in a dart board cabinet. The cabinets available these days are excellent and varied. Some used for the standard "Bristle" boards look like works of art, like an old grandfather clock head with antique like finishes. And always go for cabinets with extra storage if you can , it's amazing how much stuff you acquire when you take up darting.

The advantages of a dart board cabinet is that it tidies the dart board away making the place look neat and tidy and it is also a place to store away your darts equipment. They nearly all have a chalk board or dry wipe board to keep score on. When it comes to electronic dart boards, the cabinets have to be bigger as the electronic dart boards are bigger and the cabinets usually have some extra storage for all your darts stuff. The cabinet doors will protect your wall from those errant darts as well as having the scoreboard and out charts on the inside.

Cabinets are available in all sorts of colors, sizes and styles, manufactured in wood normally with quality finishes including inlays and door shapes, they look great on the wall with the board hidden away. The cabinet is a good looking adornment for the wall with or without a dart board inside. There is a metal cabinet from Harley Davidson would you believe, with diamond plate doors and a chrome trim, looks very cool if you like that sort of thing, but use heavy duty screws when mounting that one.

For steel tip darting I would recommend lining the back of the cabinet with either dense foam or carpet as often the back of the cabinets are just bare wood and would show the dart holes eventually, but it depends how deep the cabinet is, make sure you can still close the doors after you put the carpet in, test it first.

The advantages of the dart board cabinet is that it will protect your walls from the darts and tidy the board away when not in use with the added bonus of being a place to store your darts and darting bits as well.
