Description

Who This Is For The Viper Wall Defender III Dartboard Surround is built for dart players who want maximum wall protection in a lightweight, easy to install package. Whether you're setting up a dedicated game room, playing in a man cave, garage, or basement, or living in a rental where you can't drill extra holes, this dartboard backboard delivers professional grade protection with the largest coverage area in the Defender series. Perfect for adults, families, and competitive dart players who take their game and their walls seriously. What Makes the Defender III Different Most dart board wall protectors are heavy backboards that require permanent installation with brackets and screws, or smaller surrounds that only protect the area immediately around the dartboard. The Viper Defender III combines the best of both worlds: a snap together design that requires zero tools and zero extra holes in your wall, plus 8.2 square feet of coverage, the largest in the Defender lineup. Lightweight 1 inch thick EVA foam absorbs even the hardest errant throws, while the reversible jet black backside lets you flip the surround when one side shows wear and double the usable lifespan. Universal Compatibility The Defender III is designed to work with both regulation 17.75 inch and 18 inch sisal bristle dart boards. The included adhesive compression band ensures a tight, secure fit on smaller boards so darts cannot slip through any gaps. This universal compatibility means you can upgrade your dart board later without replacing your wall protector. Tool Free Snap Together Installation Setup takes just minutes. The dartboard surround arrives in segments that snap together to form a 45 by 32 inch rectangular frame around your already mounted dart board. Simply assemble the pieces, attach the adhesive compression band if needed, and you are ready to play. No drilling, no brackets, no extra wall holes, no tools required. The lightweight 2 pound construction makes installation easy for one person. Maximum Coverage Protection The 8.2 square feet of coverage extends well beyond the dartboard area to catch wide misses that would otherwise damage drywall, plaster, or trim. The soft EVA foam also protects your darts when boards are mounted on hard surfaces like cement, brick, or concrete, preventing dart tips from bending or breaking on impact.

I recently purchased this dart board backing to protect my wall, and I must say, it works great! The material is sturdy and does an excellent job of absorbing the impact of the darts, preventing any damage to the wall behind it. Installation was straightforward, and it provides a clean and professional look to my dart setup. Overall, I'm very satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for wall protection for their dart board. ... show more

    • Great way to save the wall behind my dart board.
Color: Black
I installed a new dart board recently and the first night my wife and I were playing darts I stuck a dart into the drywall. She did not miss the board all evening...I did. Anyway, the need for some protection around the dart board sent me scurrying to Amazon and doing a search. There were a number of options as to the size of the protection around the dart board. I opted for the larger and longer Viper Defender III Extended Length Dartboard Surround Wall Protector by GLD Products. This product is light weight, it is about one inch thick, and the panels fit together almost perfectly and it could not be any easier to install. It simply fits around the outside of my dartboard. No glue, no Velcro, no screws and no mounts. The Defender III wall protector simply rests on my board. I have missed my dart board a half dozen times since installing the Defender and it prevented the darts from reaching the drywall - thus no damage. The darts stick in the Defender and have not fallen to the floor. Overall, the Viper Defender III by GLD products is saving my walls from damage. Mission accomplished!! ... show more

    • Great dart surround. Puzzling how to not show the puzzle connections
Color: Black
Review Image by Hendu Hendu
The media could not be loaded. Why did you pick this product vs others?: Picked this because of its thickness and provided the extra protection below the board. Quality: it is really high quality and I feel it will last a long time. Size: i like that it has the area below the board and not just the surround. My only reason for not having a 5-star review is the pieces connect and you can see them. I wish they fit more snug so you don't see the seams. ... show more

I rarely write reviews. An item has to be outstandingly good or bad. The Viper surround for my dart board is SPECTACULAR! I would give it a 10 out of 5 if I could to get my point across as to how amazing it is. And I’ve read a handful of reviews of it not fitting some boards - i have to say it PERFECTLY fits my Nodor Supamatch board (the opening is 17 3/4” and so is the board), it’s nice and snug so no darts will fit between. The surround is the same depth as fill tip of my darts and so, even if thrown with insane force, it will never surpass the surround to mark up the wall. Additionally, it was beyond easy to install and looks really sharp. A fantastic product that addresses a big problem. I would highly recommend it - it is well worth the money and I honestly would have paid twice as much for it. It’s seriously worth it. ... show more

    • Felt Covering Not Glued Down

The felt covering on the foam backboard was not glued down in several places (see pics). For the $53 this thing cost, I'm VERY disappointed in the quality!!! I am returning this one and giving them another chance to send me a better quality product. Given the (lack of) quality in what I received, there is either NO Quality Control or whoever's job it was to inspect the product before shipping to the customer didn't do their job. What I received should never have been shipped to a customer in the first place - a waste of my time to have to return / replace it. I will update this review based upon that return/replacement experience. Update: I received the "replacement" shipment quickly and it was double-boxed. The inside box was crumpled on the edges and not completely taped shut, so wasn't sure what to expect. The product shipped to replace the original order was in better condition than the originally shipped product, but still had the same problem with the felt not glued down around the edges / peeling up in several places (see the added pics). I noticed where it is being made (PRC - Peoples Republic of China), so not real surprised in the (lack of) quality control. I was having a party and needed to use it to avoid damaging the wall, so bought some gel craft glue at Hobby Lobby and used that to glue it down myself. Summary thoughts - PROS: The Shipper did a good job shipping the replacement promptly and I didn't have any issues returning the first one ordered. It was very easy to install and take down (less than 5 minutes). The backboard surround works well at stopping errant darts and they stick well into the foam (don't bounce out like plywood often does). It is a nice clean look (after I glued the felt covering down myself). CONS: For $53 (a LOT IMO for a piece of foam cut into 6 puzzle pieces and covered with felt), I was expecting MUCH better quality of fit/finish. If I had only paid $20 or so, I'd expect these kinds of issues - NOT for >$50. The quality of manufacturing and/or lack of Quality Control given the number of complaints online about the felt peeling and puzzle pieces not lining up is not very good (maybe they don't start peeling until after they leave China). Bottom-line: If I was not in a hurry (needed it quickly for a party), I would look for large pieces of foam and cut one similar myself, and/or attach it to a lightweight backboard. I like the functionality of the product and the area it covers, but I don't like the quality of product for the money spent. Hopefully, GLD Products will improve their quality controls or change manufacturers to a company capable of providing a product worthy of > $50! ... show more

This has been an amazing add. I no longer worry about playing darts with friends, my walls are safe. It also adds a bar like feel to where ever you are playing. If using metal tips this is a must have, simple to use, effective.
