Double Sided Magnetic Chalkboard Easel Sign 40x20 in - Stable Outdoor

Our review of this double sided magnetic chalkboard easel finds it best suited for cafes, restaurants, event planners and small businesses that need a large, flexible display for menus and promotions. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of a 40x20 in double-sided magnetic surface and a reinforced pine frame that aims to stay upright in breezy conditions while allowing magnets and liquid chalk for quick updates. It is a practical, ready-to-use option when a substantial, portable sign is required.

Key Features

• Double-sided 40x20 in board: Lets businesses show different messages on each side for bidirectional foot traffic without swapping signs.
• Full magnetic surface: Allows menus, photos and promotional cards to be attached easily for seasonal or rotating displays.
• Reinforced pine frame: Hardware at each corner increases frame strength and helps protect against impact during transport or use.
• Stable triangular support: Heavy hinge and triangular structure are designed to resist strong gusts and reduce the chance of the sign blowing over.
• Complete accessory set: Comes with liquid chalk markers, solid chalk, magnets and an eraser cloth so it is ready to use out of the box.

Who It's For

This easel is ideal for restaurants, cafes, bars and retail stores that need a visible, changeable outdoor or indoor sign with room for graphics and text on both sides. Event planners and wedding hosts will also find it useful for directional signs and menus at receptions or parties.

Shoppers who require a lightweight, delicate indoor-only solution or expect a permanently outdoor, high-wind installation should look elsewhere; some customers reported mixed results with long-term outdoor exposure and a few noted stability concerns in very exposed locations.

Cons
