How to Hang a Bristle Dartboard at Regulation Height and Distance

Steel-tip dart games can be a fun diversion at home or on a night out with friends at the local bar. As with other sports, you can also join local dart leagues or participate in blind draws and dart competitions for money. Hanging an official bristle dartboard at home gives you the opportunity to practice more often and take your dart playing to the next level. It's important to have consistency when practicing darts; so you'll want to hang your bristle dartboard at the regulation height and distance.

1.Use the measuring tape to measure 5 feet, 8 inches up from the floor. Mark this spot on the wall with a pencil.

2.Place bracket on wall. The pencil mark should be within the bottom curve of the center U-shaped opening.

3.Screw the bracket into the wall. Center the screws in the circular openings on either side of the U-shaped opening. You can use a small level to make sure the bracket is straight or just eyeball it.

4.Turn the dartboard over and use the measuring tape to find the center. Mark with a pencil. (Some dartboards come already marked with a small indentation in the center).

5.Attach a screw to the center of dartboard back. Do not screw it all the way in; leave enough space between the screw and the backing so it can slide into the mounting bracket.

6.Place three rubber stoppers on the back of board, about 2 inches from the edge, roughly equal distances from each other.

7.Place a nail in the center of the first stopper and hammer into place until the stopper sits firmly against the board.

8.Place the dartboard back against the wall, slightly above the bracket. Slide it down until the screw slips into the U-shaped opening on the wall bracket. Turn until the 20 is centered at the top. The dartboard should fit snugly against the wall. If there is still some small movement, remove dartboard and tighten the center screw. Rehang dartboard.
