Choosing the cover that fits your panel or shelf back

A step-by-step guide to help you choose a cover for your shelf back or panel

Panel covers are a great addition to display board panels and shelf backs – no wonder they are so popular! A clear cover allows you to display children’s pictures, photos or posters, and help keep your display boards clean. A chalkboard cover brings mark-making to every activity area. Mirror covers can aid a baby’s development by stimulating their vision, promoting self-recognition, enhancing social skills, and fostering body awareness and emotional regulation.

Selecting the correct cover can be tricky though, and not all covers fill the entire display board surface. Follow this guide to ensure that the cover you choose correctly fills your panel space.

First step: Identify the shelf or panel to which you want to attach the cover

Each of our products has an ID label with the item and serial number in bold print, e.g. ID: F711 20230126AA. The item number in this case is F711. Sometimes, an item has “UK” attached to its number. Please disregard this as you choose your cover.

All panels have the ID label on the underside of the frame. Shelving units have the ID label on the top left inside surface. Please contact customer support if this label is missing.

Second step: Navigate to your shelf or panel product page

Navigate to your product on our website by entering the item number into the search field at the top of each webpage. This will automatically forward you to the product page.

Third step: Preview how a cover will look on your shelf or panel

On the product page, scroll down to the “Accessories” section. All compatible covers are listed there, so you can be sure that you are not ordering a product that won’t fit. Use the selector buttons on the accessories list to preview how much of your shelf or panel will be covered with a particular type of cover. There are cases in which you can attach two covers onto one shelf or panel. To learn whether this is possible in your case, and to get more information on the cover in general, click on the cover name in the accessories section.

If this process does not work for you, please don’t hesitate to contact customer support.
