Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Rutland Pie Co., a family-run bakery in Oakham, needed a better way to showcase their daily-changing pie menu to pedestrians in the bustling market town. Their old, faded sign just wasn't doing justice to their award-winning pastries.
"We needed something that looked as wholesome and traditional as our food. The Beaumont board is brilliant – it’s sturdy, the green is lovely and welcoming, and being able to write on both sides is a lifesaver for prepping the next day's menu."
David Chen – Owner, The Rutland Pie Co.
Since switching to the new board, the bakery has noticed a significant uplift in new customers trying their 'Pie of the Day', increasing impulse lunch sales by an estimated 15%.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Find a flat, stable, and safe position on the pavement that doesn't obstruct pedestrians.
- Before first use, 'season' the board by rubbing the side of a stick of chalk over the entire surface and then wiping it clean. This prevents 'ghosting' from your first message.
- Unfold the A-frame carefully, ensuring the chain or retaining bar is straight and secure.
- Start writing! We recommend good quality liquid chalk pens for a bold, weather-resistant message.
Keeping It Going
- Bring the board inside every night and during heavy rain or strong winds to prolong its life.
- Clean the board with a damp cloth and a dedicated chalkboard cleaning solution for the best results. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Regularly check the hinges and frame for any signs of wear and tear.
- Store the board folded flat in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this A-board weatherproof?
A: It's designed for outdoor use in typical British weather, but we strongly recommend bringing it inside during heavy rain or very strong winds to protect the wood and your message.
Q: What kind of chalk should I use?
A: For the brightest, most durable message, we recommend using liquid chalk pens. Traditional stick chalk also works well, especially after seasoning the board.
Q: How do I clean the chalkboard?
A: A damp cloth is often enough, but for stubborn liquid chalk pen marks, a dedicated chalkboard cleaning spray will leave the surface clean and residue-free.
Q: How heavy is the sign?
A: It weighs just under 9kg, making it heavy enough to be stable but light enough for most staff to carry in and out each day.
Q: Can I get it in a different colour?
A: This particular model, the Beaumont BB3, comes in this classic green finish. Other models may be available in different colours.
Q: Is the chain made of stainless steel too?
A: The key hinges are stainless steel for durability, while the retaining chain is a sturdy metal designed to keep the frame stable.
Q: How large is the writing area?
A: The board provides a substantial writing surface within the 1100(H) x 560(W) mm frame, perfect for large, eye-catching text and drawings.
Q: Does it come assembled?
A: Yes, the A-board arrives fully assembled and ready to use straight out of the box. Just unfold it and get creative!
