Save money and time by converting old, worn writing boards into new Tri-Best porcelain-on-steel markerboards or chalkboards. Custom sized, pre-framed boards are permanently installed directly over the existing writing board.
Cost savings are realized by eliminating unnecessary site labor and by reusing the existing chalk trays, map rails and related accessories. This application is highly recommended for original installations that occurred prior to 1970.
Before this time most chalkboards were installed with adhesive and permanently set within wood frames or field applied aluminum framing. Demolition of this type of writing board can lead to asbestos removal issues and costly wall repairs.
All new boards can be pre-cut and prepared for installation by school maintenance personnel. Once the installation is completed the new writing board is ready for immediate use.
