I got this in on Thursday and thought I would share my impression on it. Well to start I ordered it on Monday and it arrived on Thursday so I was pleased with the shipping time. I ordered it from this site [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] After shipping and tax it came to 35 USD which is far better than any other system I could find.

Here is all you will need to put up your board


[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

- A phillips head screw driver
- A tape measure and a oche mate (I used the ochemate)
- The door hanger and 4 rubber feet for back of the board
- and of course your darts for playing and the ochemate

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

What you want to do using a phillips head screw driver is follow the instructions above. Very simple. This took about 3 minutes by hand and is the longest install step

After doing that you simply take the hanger by itself and hang it on the door you wish to place dart board. Close the door and take you tape measure and measure up to the slot in hanger that is 5' 8" from the floor. Now count up and remember which slot you will be placing the board in.

Remove the hanger from the door and place dartboard in correct slot. Tighten the screw on center of dartboard. You are now ready to hang to dartboard

After hanging the dartboard I double checked the height using the ochemate as seen above. It was on the money! After checking the height you want to once again use the ochemate to get your correct distance and mark your toe line.

You will see in the above pic that you do have to rig the surround to fit because of the molding on top of the door. The hanger itself does not get in the way. Another thing I was worried about was when pulling out your darts. In no way (especially when using a surround) does the board or hanger even move when pulling out your darts. Overall I give this product 10/10 and am thankful I stumbled upon it before spending 3 times the amount on another system.

If you had an extra old surround you could easily modify it to fit with a utility knife also.

Notice when hanging on the inside of doors the surround works fine because its flush with the molding

I had an opportunity to throw at Mac's board with this system and must say that I give it a 10/10 myself. Works great, looks easy enough to setup, and highly portable. Last for those of you who live somewhere where wall space is limited and holes in the available wall space is unacceptable this system solves all those problems. Now, it just needs to withstand the test of time.

I got a system similar to this one to take out on the road and throw in my room when I am at a hotel. It didn't come with the bumpers for the board but I agree with your review, these simple bracket systems are unbeatable for the money. My teammate got the Unicorn On Tour Portable Dartboard and paid over $150 after shipping and I showed him this :

and needless to say he was upset. Granted, the Unicorn On Tour set up comes with a nice new Eclipse board, but I never really saw much point in practicing on a super nice board, I always either got the Muellers Tournament Razor for $25 or would talk to the owner of my league bar and get one of the old boards for free when they replace them at the beginning of each season. That could me just me however. One of my buddies enjoys giving me hell for being the "Thrifty Thrower" since I get everything used, off ebay, or just flat out build it myself (like my case and backboard).

The door hanging system is truly wonderful and has allowed me to have a dart board in my room far sooner than if I had to wait to put up a backboard and all.

I would be upset if I just got done spending $150 on a portable system myself.

I too like to grab used boards from the club that I play out of. Seeing that we get a new board per team each winter season and no one throws on them much except for the league guys. Unfortunately the quality of the boards being distributed has been declining...

Have you guys thought of using a paperwound board while traveling? For mounting use an old leather belt with the holes in it. Cut the buckle portion off, shut in the door, adjust so one of the belt holes align to 5' 8" and voiala you have a light disposable set up. Usually can be picked up for $10.00 and can be thrown away after the trip is over. This one even has wire dividers:
