Stokbord Tips
- To allow for slight movement once the stokbord has been fixed, make the holes in the board 2mm larger than the screws.
- Use round-headed screws or a washer and bolt. Don’t use countersunk screws.
- Ideally Stokbord should be fixed onto batons on the wall spaced 2-4ft apart. However, you can screw directly to the wall but most people attach to batons or plywood.
