Wideboard – Vertical – wide magnetic knife holder for vertical mounting in several finishes
Wideboard Vertical is designed for those who want to have their knives hanging horizontally on a vertically mounted magnetic knife holder. The Wideboard Vertical is constructed with continuous N52 neodymium bar magnets distributed in multiple parallel rows along the entire length of the rail. This provides multiple contact points on each knife blade and an evenly distributed magnetic force that keeps the knife stable in a horizontal position without it slipping, rotating or being attracted to the neighboring blade. Vertical mounting places special demands on the magnetization. The Wideboard is therefore designed with significantly more magnets than a standard rail, and the placement is optimized specifically for this mounting. The result is a rail that holds your knives securely — regardless of size and weight. The magnets are invisibly encased in solid oak or walnut. The back is beveled on all four edges, so the rail creates a discreet shadow effect against the wall. Dimensions and capacity Lengths: 40 – 120 cm Widths: 15, 20 or 25 cm. A 40 cm rail typically holds 6–8 knives depending on the width of the blades. Special measurements are delivered without surcharge for minor deviations from standard measurements — contact us at torben@rune-jakobsen.dk. Assembly All Wideboard Verticals are supplied with concealed brackets for vertical mounting as well as screws and raw plugs. Note Not all knives are suitable for a vertical magnetic knife holder. Blades with a low magnetic alloy content, very narrow blades or heavy handles can be difficult to hold in a horizontal position — regardless of the rail's magnetic strength. If you are in doubt about your knives, please feel free to ask before ordering.
