Sharing This Post Would Be Awesome Of You!

DartBoard Ideas are not that hard to find but good ones are. I often like to kick back and relax playing a good game of darts.

Any Man Cave would not be complete without one right?

Well, unless you don’t like darts of course, then maybe go buy a pool table or something ha!

But… Seen as you’re here why not take a look at some of the awesome dartboard (you never know, seeing how awesome they look may change your mind about adding one at home).

And, If you’re going to buy a dartboard then you most certainly want it to look good once it’s upon your wall, right!

So, we have put together a superb list of dartboard that may help you in your quest of making your man cave look sweet!

Anyway, here are some of the very best Dartboard ideas which will help you along choosing how you want to mount your mighty gaming board to your wall.

Why Install A Dartboard?

Why A Dartboard?

Darts has a massive following, with Bridgend Nodor reporting in 2018 to the BBC they have sold 40 million dartboards worldwide over the last 15 years.

That’s a lot of dartboards, so that should give you some indication about how popular this sport is.

As a result, the chances are even if your not a massive darts fan yourself. Some of your family and friends will be and if you ever have them visit its a great way to entertain them.

Plus it is a great man cave idea that’s quite inexpensive in comparison to some other cave accessories. Trust me on this.

Choosing The Right Dartboard Backboard

When it comes to choosing the perfect dartboard backboard you want it to look unique.

Saying that it helps to get a little inspiration from others who have mounted their dartboards with a touch of style and elegance.

So here is what to consider when designing you dartboard backboard.

#1 – Pick a suitable location for the board. Make sure there is no chance of damaging your walls or anyone who may walk through a door. (Yep, I have seen so many dartboards hung at the rear of an internal door, I am sure you have too and its a tad dangerous).

#2 – What height and distance should you hang the dartboard? According to the Professional darts authority in their rules, the optimal height placement is 5 feet 8 inches and the distance (or the Oche, which is a technical term used in the darts world) between the player and board should be measured at 7 feet and 9.25 inches.

#3 – How big should my dartboard backboard be?

I have measured my own and found the optimal size so your darts don’t go AWOL is approximately 3 feet wide and 5 feet in height.

This size backboard should save your walls from being damaged by the odd stray dart and believe me, there are a lot of those in my home.

I would also cater for this in your design a space for your scoreboard.

I know a lot of purchased cabinet style backboards/cabinets have them attached – but if you decide to make your own you may wish to mount to the wall at the side of your backboard instead.

I like this scoreboard which is only £12.99 at Amazon.

So, get that tape measure out before you start your project to make sure everything is perfectly positioned.

In other words “Don’t wing it” you want this to look awesome and on point.

So, now I will show you some fantastic dartboard ideas that are unique and pretty inspirational to help you along.
