Magnetic board

A Great Place for Your Travel Magnets

Nowadays, we travel a lot and create memories. We often buy various souvenirs on our travels that, in addition to pictures, remind us of our past trips. A great idea for souvenirs are magnets with images of the places we have visited. Magnets are actually a kind of symbol of travel and memories. Despite the fact that we all want to have magnets in visible places, the problem often arises of where to store all our magnets. In this article, I will present you with a great way to store magnets from your travels.

Refrigerator problem

The refrigerator has become a symbol for storing magnets. Many people keep magnets on their refrigerators, thus keeping their memories in the center of their home – the kitchen. The refrigerator has survived as a place to store magnets, although it has many shortcomings.

 
  1. High risk of damage to magnets . This is mainly due to the fact that the kitchen is a work space and in the heat of cooking, someone can easily accidentally cause a magnet to fall to the floor and get injured. Also, the refrigerator door is opened several times a day, which is dangerous for magnets in itself. It is also worth emphasizing that the sheet metal on the outside of the refrigerator is not intended for magnets. As a result, the magnets create a smaller attraction with it than with surfaces intended for magnets. This means that the chance that magnets will fall out of the refrigerator and get damaged is even greater.
  2. Space limitations . Storing magnets from travel on the fridge has a key problem in space limitations. You can only have as many magnets as you have space on the fridge, which is usually not a good idea. Of course, you can have an American fridge, which in this case offers 2 times more space, but it turns out that we always lack space. Despite the fact that no one wants to remove older magnets to make room for new ones, this turns out to be a common practice, because the concept of storing magnets on the fridge, with very limited space, simply does not allow for expansion.  
  3. Unaesthetic . Storing magnets on the refrigerator means that we have to imagine a freestanding refrigerator (it cannot be built-in), since built-in refrigerators have wooden doors. In most modern apartments, we tend to have a style that prescribes built-in appliances, so a freestanding refrigerator is not stylistically suitable for such an apartment. In practice, this means that if we want to have a modern apartment (we mean a modern apartment according to most plans, which therefore foresee built-in furniture), we simply cannot store magnets on the refrigerator. Either the apartment or the magnets on the refrigerator.

As I described above, the decision to store magnets on the refrigerator is not the best decision in most cases. Let’s take a look at magnetic boards for storing magnets.

The problem of poor and unaesthetic magnetic boards

Magnets from trips can be stored on magnetic boards, which are intended for writing and drawing. Magnetic boards solve two problems of refrigerators, but two key problems remain. If magnets are stored on magnetic boards, we can avoid the possibility of damage to the magnets to some extent , because we can place the magnetic boards in a safe place. We also get rid of space limitations , because we can buy even more magnetic boards and increase the magnetic surface.

Although magnetic boards are more suitable for storing travel magnets than a refrigerator, there are still two problems.

 

    1. Usually poorer magnetic properties . Magnetic boards for writing and drawing are not intended for storing magnets. There is a flood of cheap products on the market that are of poorer quality. We must be aware that the strength of attraction between the magnet and the board depends both on the magnet (magnets that we buy in tourist places are usually of poorer quality) and on the magnetic board itself. This is about the quality and thickness of the sheet metal, as well as the applied paint. In short, no one wants magnets to “fall off” during trips, so it is necessary to purchase quality products and know what we are buying.

    1. Unaesthetic . If you say that the first reason depends entirely on the product, the second is generally very general. Magnetic boards that are not specifically designed to store magnets are usually unaesthetic or do not fit into the space where we want to put them. We usually want to place the magnets in a visible place, and the board where we will attach them must match the space in which it is located. We cannot achieve this with ordinary magnetic boards intended for writing and drawing, since they are industrial. We would need an individual alternative.

As we can see, even conventional magnetic boards are not the most suitable solution. Is there even a suitable, high-quality and affordable solution on the market?
