How to Mount an English Dart Board

Darts is an English pub game that is popular worldwide. According to darts historian Patrick Chaplin, darts was played with different rules and boards all over England until it was organized into league play by breweries just after World War I. The English dart board is the standard dart board used across the world, but regional and specialty dart boards are available. Mounting an English dart board takes only a few minutes and requires little work.

1.Select a wall with at least 11 feet of floor space in front of it. Choose an area free from foot traffic.

2.Run a stud finder across the wall at shoulder height until it finds a stud. Mark the edges of the stud with a pencil.

3.Measure 5 feet, 8 inches off the ground. Make a mark in the center of the stud with a pencil.

4.Hold the dart board against the wall so the bullseye is directly over the mark. Lift the hanger bracket and mark where the nail should go with a pencil. Remove the dart board, place a nail against the mark and pound it in with a hammer. Leave 1/2-inch of the nail head protruding. Hang the dart board on the nail and adjust it so the "20" is centered at the top.

5.Measure 7 feet, 9-1/4 inches from the wall. Place a long piece of colored masking tape parallel to the wall at this distance. This is the throwing line.
