Bendheim’s Magnetic Glass Marker Boards Featured in Sunset’s “Smart Homes”

“Bendheim’s Magnetic Marker Boards complement the modern, urban aesthetic of the homes,” said Sarah Gaffney, Home Program Manager at Sunset Magazine. “Our editors loved the ‘idea’ quality of the product, an architectural alternative to corkboard bulletin boards.”

Bendheim’s two-by-three-foot Magnetic Glass Marker Board is featured in the kitchen area. Two additional three-by-six-foot boards are displayed in the home office on the closet sliding doors.

Bendheim’s functional, high-polish writing surfaces provide the benefit of durable, maintenance-friendly glass. Standard dry-erase markers and erasers make cleanup easy without ghosting or permanent staining. Powerful magnets allow a variety of materials, ranging from standard notes to brochures and heavy cards, to be elegantly “pinned” to the boards.

 “We loved how it looked, as did the visitors to the home,” added Gaffney. “They consistently provided the response we were looking for: ‘How cool is this! I’ve never seen this before.’”

Magnetic Marker Boards can be installed in frames for partitions and wall cladding applications; with stand-off hardware attachments; or applied directly to walls or other surfaces using structural silicone. Designers and contractors can select from single- or dual-sided formats of the Magnetic Marker Boards, the latter allowing for a distinct aesthetic on each side of the board, i.e., one side of the glass can be white, the opposite – black. The standard Marker Boards come in white / black colors and feature luminous fire-polished surfaces. Custom colors and decorative imprinted options are available for larger orders, providing design flexibility.

The boards are in 5/16” thickness and are available in sizes up to 60” by 96” to the trade only (architects, interior designers, building contractors).
