Design and Brand Consistency

How Commercial Menus & Display Boards Work

Menu displays are more sophisticated than you might think! Most designs feature protective covers—typically acrylic or tempered glass—that shield your printed menus from spills, fingerprints and general wear. Wall-mounted versions use robust fixings that keep information visible without taking up valuable floor space. Illuminated options incorporate energy-efficient LED technology that draws attention to your offerings even in dimly lit environments. Changeable letter boards use track systems that allow you to quickly update daily specials, while digital displays can be programmed remotely—perfect for venues that frequently update their offerings. The best part? Most are designed for easy cleaning and menu updates!

Safety Guidelines

  • Secure Mounting Ensure wall-mounted displays use proper fixings—prevents accidents.
  • Weather Precautions Check outdoor displays during high winds—avoid tipping hazards.
  • Electrical Safety Verify illuminated displays have proper waterproofing for outdoor use.
  • Positioning Place freestanding boards away from walkways—maintains clear paths.
  • Weight Distribution Add water/sand to bases of pavement signs—stabilizes in wind.
  • Avoid Sharp Edges Check frames regularly for damage—protects staff and customers.

Top Tips for Using Commercial Menus & Display Boards

To maximize your menu displays, position them at eye level where customers naturally look—about 1.5 metres from the floor for wall-mounted options. Clean acrylic covers daily with non-abrasive cloths to maintain clarity, and avoid direct sunlight for LED displays as it reduces visibility. For outdoor boards, bring portable options inside during extreme weather, and use condensation-resistant poster pockets to prevent fogging. Remember that less is more—highlight specials and profitable items rather than overwhelming customers with too many options.

Benefits of Using Commercial Menus & Display Boards

  • Enhanced Visibility Customers spot offerings immediately—reduces ordering time.
  • Increased Sales Highlighted specials and promotions boost high-margin items.
