  • Other Interchangeable boards may not be the answer but ours is!
    But here is the best way to do it=>See our new COAF frame

    1.  Their Price will probably be 2 to 5 times more than our permanent boards

    2.  It really is rare that hospitals want to change them.  We have sold 50,000 boards to hospitals and 98% of time, same area replacements or add-on boards are EXACTLY the same with no changes.

    3.  Our surface is proven and guaranteed 20 years even with disinfectants.   Others will be destroyed.   Glass will withstand disinfectants but is not used since it must be safety glass and is heavy.   Changing inserts could be a time consuming job that requires the maintenance department.  What is used is Plexiglas with a dry erase surface coating that will not stand up!  Be sure to get a 20 year guarantee before committing big dollars.

    4.  High quality custom layouts do not come with most interchangeable units!
    Cost of printed original or replacement sheets will surprise you and can be 1/2 the cost of a new board from us.  For example printing a 24x36 sheet can cost $43.50 vs. a completely new unit at $76 vs a magnet we custom design for $44.   Changing sheets will also take manpower.  Even creating the insert can require hours of graphic artist time ($100/hour) in addition to your time and time and cost to get it printed and cut to size.

    5.  Plexiglas overlay systems are harder to read due to thickness of Plexiglas and visual parallax.

    6.  Use of Magnets - Plexiglas overlays will make using magnets impossible.    One of the main reasons are boards are so popular is that they take all types of magnets from magnetic business cards to complete overlays.

    7. We offer a our COAF interchangeable board at no additional initial cost. In the future it can have the graphics updated and made dry erase at a minimal cost.

    8.  Cleaning - Does the glass or Plexiglas or standoff system create an unsanitary area that will be unacceptable to disease control.
