Buying external notice boards
When buying an external notice board, there are several factors that need to be considered, including the environment, purpose and audience of the notice board.
That’s why we have a comprehensive range of options suited to all kinds of uses, so you can be confident you’ll find a notice board that is right for you.
Materials
Our noticeboards are available in different materials to give them different properties. You can order a noticeboard in the following materials:
Wooden notice boards
If you’re looking for something more traditional, we offer rustic wooden notice boards in high-quality oak. All our wooden boards can be fitted with the same security locks and anti-vandalism finishes as a metal board, but provide a more rustic, countryside look and feel. Wooden notice boards are ideally suited to churches and parish councils, as well as local parks and nature spots.
Recycled Plastic notice boards
For an environmentally friendly option that requires minimal maintenance, look no further than our recycled plastic noticeboards. Manufactured from 100% reclaimed materials, our recycled plastic notice boards have the right eco credentials for many funding bids and are completely resistant to weathering.
Metal notice boards
For those looking for the sturdiest and most secure type of notice board, metal is most likely your best option. At Fitzpatrick Woolmer, we offer a variety of metal notice boards in various sizes and shapes, whether you’re buying for a school, a heritage site, your local village or town centre. Our aluminium and stainless steel boards are manufactured to the highest quality standards.
Features
Are you looking for a specific functionality for your noticeboard? Our products can be built with the following features in mind to make sure they’re fit for the purpose that you required:
Waterproof and weatherproof notice boards
We understand that the British weather isn’t the most forgiving when it comes to decorative outdoor installations – that’s why we work to ensure that all of our boards are both waterproof and weatherproof, and installed professionally by us to withstand all types of weather conditions – even a rain storm. If you’re worried about important notices and flyers getting caught in the rain or blown away by an Autumn wind, our weather-proof notice boards can put your mind at ease.
Lockable notice boards
We understand that you’ll want to ensure all contents of your notice board remain in place, and aren’t removed or damaged by unauthorised persons or vandals. This is why our lockable notice boards are designed to provide a secure and weatherproof place to display important information, with robust locks added for extra protection. Our lockable notice boards come in wood, metal and recycled plastic, with sturdy frames and robust locks for added protection.
