MakersBestFriend Dartboard Cork Backboard

Yes, the backboard is constructed from over 400 wine corks, which creates a dense, self-healing surface. It is designed specifically to catch errant steel-tip darts and prevent them from piercing or marking the wall behind the board.

The backboard is designed to accommodate the included 18-inch regulation bristle dartboard, but you can mount most standard-sized dartboards to the center. Just ensure your replacement board fits within the 36-inch by 30-inch frame dimensions.

The unit is designed to mount securely to wall studs, which is necessary given its 24-pound weight. We recommend using a level and a stud finder to ensure it is anchored properly for stability during play.

Yes, the pinewood frame is customizable. You can select from a variety of stain finishes during the ordering process to ensure the backboard complements your existing furniture and decor.

The set includes six steel-tip darts, which are standard for bristle dartboards. They are appropriate for players of all skill levels, though beginners should be mindful that steel tips are sharp and require a dedicated backboard like this one.
