The Scout Menu Board is a beautiful format for sharing words in a smaller space. Having words displayed on the wall is always good. It can be a to-do list in your home, a welcoming message for your studio, an inspirational quote for little Tommy, or an ever-changing cafe menu at your local. It can be anything really, and that’s why we love it.
We thought we'd better help you out with installing your new Menu Board and get the job done right!
You or your handyman are looking at taking about 30-45mins once you’ve got the tools ready, so get a good playlist going, pour yourselves both a cuppa and enjoy the quick and easy process.

Step by step installation guide.
STEP 1.
CONFIGURATION
Whether it's a food menu you're displaying, a monthly plan, or an inspirational quote. The Wooden Menu Board will do its best to complement all of those things. Choose a configuration for your Wooden Letter Board. The rails can be installed below one another, or side-by-side, whichever is best suited to your space.
STEP 2.
PLACEMENT
Select a wall-space to install the Wooden Bakery Menu. It is best for the rails to be fixed into studs or a solid wall.
Insert the first screw in the left hole on what will be your bottom rail.
STEP 3.
LEVEL + POSITION
Using a level, position the rail so it is perfectly horizontal. Fasten both of the screws and ensure the rail is securely fixed to the wall.
STEP 4.
POSITION + FIXING
Place the next rail on the first rail. Using this as a guide, position and fix the second railing onto the wall. Continue this method for the remaining rails of our Menu Board. Make sure the rails are nice and tight on the one below to ensure the rails are parallel.
STEP 5.
ARRANGE YOUR TEXT
Slide the Letter Tiles one-by-one onto the rails from either end.
STEP 6.
EXTRA LETTERS
If extra letters are needed you can apply stickers which are provided with the letter packs - found under the lid of the letter box. Handy hint: use a kraft knife for lifting the stickers off of the sheet.
