Acrylic Honours Board Designs & Examples
An in-depth look at some of the acrylic honours boards we've designed and made over the years.
Black & Gold Board Design
Size: 760 x 1200mm
Material: Clear acrylic
Graphics: Gold to the face of the board
Background: Black vinyl to the back of the board
Fixings: Black barrel fixings
Board Capacity: 62 entries
Notes: Black on the back of the board and gold on the face gives the content of the board a greater sense of depth. The black barrel fixings hold the boards slightly off the wall further emphasising this aesthetic.
Golf Club Honours Board Designs
Size: 600 x 1200mm
Material: Clear acrylic
Graphics: Matt black vinyl to the face
Background: Etched film to the back of the board
Fixings: Silver barrel fixings
Notes: We designed these honours boards for Worlebury Golf Club when they replaced their wooden honours boards. A total of 24 acrylic honours board designs were created, some shown here, to fill a 10 metre long wall and adjoining section.
All boards were installed by ourselves using lasers to ensure every board was installed at the correct height and perfectly aligned to the others around it.
Wood & Acrylic Combined Board
Size: 700 x 1200mm
Material: Wood frame and backboard with acrylic face
Graphics: Black vinyl, applied to the back panel.
Background: Light oak wooden panel
Fixings: Brass mirror fixings
Notes: An unusual honours board design in that the two most popular materials, wood and acrylic, are combined into one board. The frame and backpanel are manufactured from light oak. The graphics are then applied to this and covered with an acrylic face panel.
This type of design would suit locations where the lettering on a board might receive unwanted attention as the acrylic face panel covers the lettering and stops it being damaged.
Large Acrylic Honours Boards
Size: 2200 x 1200mm
Material: Clear acrylic
Graphics: Matt black vinyl to the face
Background: Etched film to the back of the board
Fixings: Silver barrel fixings
Notes: We designed these honours boards for Littlestone Warren Golf Club. A total of 14 acrylic honours board designs were created from customer supplied information. We took the spreadsheet of all existing historic information and incorporated that into the new board designs with plenty of space for new updates to come.
Customer installed these boards themselves.
Standard Acrylic Honours Board
Size: 600 x 1200mm
Material: Clear acrylic
Graphics: Matt black vinyl to the face
Logo: Digitally printed and applied to the face
Background: Etched film to the back of the board
Fixings: Silver barrel fixings
Notes: These are quite a popular board design. A single competition per bopard which allows for around 90 - 100 entries depending on how large the text is.
If it helps give you ideas for your own club, these boards are easy to install and accommodate a large amount of entries giving them an excellent lifespan.
Etched and Clear Board Designs
Notes: The photo to the side shows a sample of acrylic with etched film on the upper half. If you're looking at honours board designs and wondering if you should have etched, a coloured background or not, then our advice would be as follows.
-
Clear boards are fine on light coloured plain walls.
-
If your walls have patterns or anything other than a light colour then we would suggest either an etched film on back of the board or a plain solid colour to give contrast to the lettering.
Acrylic Honours Board Fixings
Size: 19mm diam
Material: Polished Silver (available in other colours)
Notes: We often get asked what type of fixing is used for the acrylic boards. The photo to the left shows the barrel fixings which are typically used. They're 19mm in diameter and hold the board around 20mm from the wall.
This system allows for the board to be both easily installed & taken down by our customers as the need arises.
