How to choose a quality dartboard 

First time buying a dartboard? It might seem as simple as picking an attractive design, but there are a few more elements to consider before clicking “add to cart”. At NPC Amusements, we think of ourselves as the experts on darts, so we’ve put together a few tips for choosing the perfect dartboard.

Dartboard materials.

Most dartboards are made from a durable, dense, all-natural material called sisal. This material with unique “self-healing” abilities — sisal fibres literally seal the holes after the dart is removed from the dartboard! We recommend sisal for a long-lasting dartboard that will survive frequent use and tournament play.

Dartboard wiring.

The wiring separates the central area of the dartboard from the outer one and should be set up to minimise bounce-outs. Thinner triangle wires will improve your chances of hitting the target, or blade wiring removes the need for staples and reduces the wire thickness.

You should also look for dartboards without staples because staples can increase the chances of bounce-outs and impact safety.

Dartboard depth.

A thicker dartboard is recommended to reduce the risk of bounce-outs. A good depth will help the darts penetrate the dartboard, encourage a more consistent game and even help boost your precision and score!

The bullseye.

We recommend looking for a bladed bullseye to ensure your darts sink into the sisal, secure your win and eliminate bounce-outs.

Mounting.

Your dartboard should sit flush against the wall — no tiling or instability. With this in mind, make sure to choose a dartboard that comes with an appropriate mount system.

Inks.

Look for dartboards that come with high-quality inks! The ink will help the darts sink into the sisal easily, reduce flare, and improve your accuracy.

FAQs about our range of dartboards for sale 

How high should a dartboard be mounted?

If you’re playing by international rules, the distance between the floor and the middle of the bullseye should be five feet, eight inches (or 1.73 metres). This is the same for both electronic and steel-tip dartboards. We recommend measuring and mounting the dartboard before measuring the throw line.

Remember to mount the dartboard with the number 20 at the top!

How high should I mount the dartboard for wheelchair users?

The official dartboard height for players who use wheelchairs is four feet, six inches (or 1.37 metres). The throwing distance should be the same as that of players who do not use a wheelchair.

How far should the throwline be from the dartboard?

If you’re playing by international rules, the dartboard should be seven feet, 9.25 inches (or 2.37 metres) from the Oche (the throwline). This is the same for all players.

How do I protect my darts from bounce-outs?

If you’re setting up a new dartboard, we recommend investing in a durable rubber dart mat to minimise the risk of bounce-out damage to your darts. Crash-landing on a stone, tile, or concrete floor can damage your darts, but a dart mat can reduce the impact and keep them sharp and ready to play.

A dart mat is also recommended for carpet flooring. You might end up walking to and from the dartboard hundreds of times in a single game, and over time, this can wear down the carpet. A dart mat will keep the carpet fresh and intact!

Do you offer complete dartboard sets? 

Yes, we stock complete dartboard packages. Each set includes the board, darts, mounting brackets and sometimes even a surround. These are perfect if you’re just starting or want everything you need in one purchase.

What type of darts should I buy to use with my dartboard—steel tip darts or soft tip darts?

That depends on your preferences and what materials your dartboard was crafted from. For a bristle dartboard, we recommend steel tip darts as they’re durable and precise. For electronic dartboards, soft tip darts are the safer choice. Our team can guide you to the best option if you need tailored expert advice.

How can I elevate my darts game?

To elevate your skills, we recommend consistent practice, trying different tip darts, and experimenting with various stances and grips. Combining practice with quality equipment will not only boost your confidence but also enhance your overall form.

What’s the best way to enhance my focus while playing?

To enhance your focus, set up a clear playing area with proper lighting and minimal distractions. Practising regularly will also sharpen your concentration, helping you improve your skills and enjoy the thrill of competition.
