Every dart board needs a dart board cabinet

Dart board cabinets have come on a bit since I was a lad. In those days the cabinets were hand made from any old boxwood lying around, but these days they are like works of art in comparison. The quality and variety of dart board cabinets available now is amazing. They are much more like items of furniture with brass fittings and different colors to suit any home décor. There are cabinets to suit all kinds of dart boards from the traditional bristle boards to the latest electronic boards.

The benefit of having a dart board cabinet is that it looks good on the wall and hides away the dart board when not in use as well as having somewhere to keep all your darting gear. They nearly all have a chalk board or dry wipe board to keep score on. When it comes to electronic dart boards, the cabinets have to be bigger as the electronic dart boards are bigger and the cabinets usually have some extra storage for all your darts stuff. And of course with the cabinet doors open the cabinet protects your wall from those wild darts that go astray from time to time especially when you have just come back with the "boys" from the bar or pub and fancy a game of darts to finish the evening with.

Cabinets are available in all sorts of colors, sizes and styles, manufactured in wood normally with quality finishes including inlays and door shapes, they look great on the wall with the board hidden away. The cabinet is a good looking adornment for the wall with or without a dart board inside. There is a metal cabinet from Harley Davidson would you believe, with diamond plate doors and a chrome trim, looks very cool if you like that sort of thing, but use heavy duty screws when mounting that one.

For steel tip darting I would recommend lining the back of the cabinet with either dense foam or carpet as often the back of the cabinets are just bare wood and would show the dart holes eventually, but it depends how deep the cabinet is, make sure you can still close the doors after you put the carpet in, test it first.

So all in all you should get a dart board cabinet to keep the games room looking good when not playing, and to protect the wall when you are playing as well as some storage place to keep your darts equipment.
