Look After your Dart Board With a Dart Board Cabinet
Dart board cabinets have come on a bit since I was a lad. In those days the cabinets were hand made from any old boxwood lying around, but these days they are like works of art in comparison. The quality and variety of dart board cabinets available now is amazing. They are much more like items of furniture with brass fittings and different colors to suit any home décor. There are cabinets to suit all kinds of dart boards from the traditional bristle boards to the latest electronic boards.
The advantages of a dart board cabinet is firstly it hides the dart board away and keeps the place looking neat and tidy and you have somewhere to store away your darts equipment. Also most of them have a chalk score board or dry wipe board on the doors for scoring, which is essential. For electronic dart boards, the cabinet has to be bigger, and have extra storage to put your soft tip dart supplies like extra soft tips and flights etc. And of course with the cabinet doors open the cabinet protects your wall from those wild darts that go astray from time to time especially when you have just come back with the “boys” from the bar or pub and fancy a game of darts to finish the evening with.
The cabinets come in all colors and styles and are usually made from solid wood and are beautifully finished and varnished, some even have inlays in the doors making the cabinet look a thing of beauty when the doors are closed. They can be a desirable piece of furniture on their own even without the dart board. 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.
So look after your dart board with a dart board cabinet to keep the games room looking tidy when not playing, and to protect the wall when you are playing as well as having a place to keep your darts equipment.
