Whiteboards & Display Boards — Expert Answer
At what height should a whiteboard be mounted on the wall?
Standard whiteboard mounting height places the bottom edge of the board at approximately 36 inches from the floor — this allows seated participants at a conference table to see the lower portion of the board, and standing presenters to write comfortably in the middle of the board. For the board center to be at a comfortable writing height for most adults (approximately 55–60 inches off the floor), a 4-foot-tall board would mount with its bottom at 37–38 inches. For classrooms where the teacher writes on the board while students are seated in rows, the bottom edge at 30–34 inches from the floor gives good sightline visibility from back-row seats. Adjust slightly lower for spaces primarily occupied by children. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960.
