Product Information

Full details

This KAV 2-in-1 White Board and Cork Board is designed for anyone needing a versatile organization and communication tool in offices, schools, homes, or nurseries. Its key benefit is the dual-surface functionality, offering both a pinable cork board and a dry-wipeable surface in a single unit. A potential caveat is that the dry-wipe surface is non-magnetic, limiting some display options. The board features a natural, self-healing cork side for pins and a non-magnetic dry wipe side for writing, all encased in a resilient 16mm pine wood frame.

FAQs

Is the dry-wipe surface magnetic?

No, the dry-wipe surface is non-magnetic. You cannot attach items to it using magnets.

What size are the mounting holes?

The board has pre-drilled holes in the frame for mounting. Specific hole diameter is not detailed, but standard screws or wall anchors should fit.

Does it come with markers or pins?

No, the board is sold separately and does not include dry-erase markers, erasers, or pins.

What is the frame made of?

The frame is made of a thick, resilient 16mm pine wood.

Can I use permanent markers on the dry-wipe side?

It is strongly recommended not to use permanent markers on the dry-wipe surface, as they can be very difficult or impossible to remove and may permanently damage the surface.

How do I clean the cork side?

The cork side can be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Minor indentations from pins may smooth out over time or with gentle pressure.

What are the dimensions of the board?

The dimensions are 400 x 600 millimeters.

Troubleshooting

Dry-wipe surface is difficult to clean

Ensure you are using dry-erase markers specifically designed for whiteboards. For stubborn marks, use a whiteboard cleaner spray or a soft cloth dampened with water, then dry thoroughly.

Pin marks are very visible on cork

While the cork is self-healing, very frequent or large pins can leave lasting marks. Try to use pins with smaller heads and avoid repinning in the exact same spot multiple times. A slightly damp cloth can sometimes help smooth minor indentations.

Board does not hang securely

Ensure you are using appropriate wall anchors and screws for your wall type (e.g., drywall, plaster, brick). Consult hardware store advice if unsure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This board is designed for simple setup. It can be hung on a wall using appropriate mounting hardware (not included). Ensure the chosen location is stable and accessible. The board comes ready to use out of the box.

Compatibility: The cork side is compatible with standard push pins. The dry-wipe side is compatible with any dry-erase markers. It is not magnetic.

Care: To maintain the dry-wipe surface, erase markers promptly after use. For cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, which can damage the surface. For the cork side, occasionally smooth out any minor indentations with a slightly damp cloth. Keep the board away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity.
