The Big Apple Series chalk boards (formerly named Reddi-Frame Clip Tite) represent the ultimate in design and function. Its unique design complies with the New York City Board of Education and the NYC School Construction Authority specifications. Most current NYC School's replacement chalk and marker boards are from the Big Apple Series. The standard full-length factory installed mounting rail provides unsurpassed stability, safety and ease of installation. This unique mounting system uses the weight of the board to keep it pressed flush against the wall. This means there is no place for dirt or a student's "missing paperwork" to hide.

Although designed for heavy-duty school use, the Big Apple Series' beauty can enhance any training or conference room space. It comes standard with an easy-to-clean magnetic Ceramicsteel P3 writing surface in green, black or slate colors. The Ceramicsteel P3 writing surface has a lifetime warranty. The factory installed heavy-duty AY-10 chalk/marker tray features a smooth closed-end design with no sharp edges. Options include a 1" or 2" cork display rail with associated accessories. The Big Apple Series can also be custom manufactured with either a 4' or 5' height and up to 60' width.




Deluxe Series chalk boards offer many of the features of the premium Big Apple Series at a much lower cost. The facing, core and backing are the same as the Big Apple. The Deluxe Series features a factory-installed integrated hanging system that mounts flush to the wall. A 1.5" aluminum frame surrounds the black, green or slate colored easy-to-clean magnetic Ceramicsteel P3 writing surface. The Ceramicsteel P3 writing surface has a lifetime warranty. All Deluxe Series boards come with a sturdy AY-20 chalk/marker tray. Options include an upgrade to the closed-end AY-10 chalk/marker tray plus optional 1" and 2" cork display rails with associated accessories. The Deluxe Series can also be custom manufactured with either a 4' or 5' height and up to 60' width.




The Hardwood Series features an attractive 1¾" hardwood frame that can be mounted "as is" or stained or painted by the purchaser to match its surroundings.

The facing is covered with ¼" of long-lasting natural cork laminated to a ¼" hardboard backing.

Standard features include an easy-to-clean magnetic Ceramicsteel P3 writing surface in green, black and slate colors. The Ceramicsteel P3 writing surface has a lifetime warranty. An optional hardwood chalk/marker tray is also available for many sizes and configurations.

Value Series chalk boards are designed to meet the needs of those who have limited funds and will not use the writing surface every day. This design is perfect for restaurants, religious groups, fraternal organizations, etc. Value Series chalk boards are only available with a black "fused film" writing surface. The ¼" "fused film" writing surface is laminated to a ⅜" hardboard backing and surrounded by a ½" aluminum frame. The "fused film" writing surface has a two-year warranty.
