Pins
Pins are essential for securing notices, memos, photos and documents on corkboards, display boards and walls. Choose from push pins, thumbtacks and map pins in a range of colours and finishes for offices, schools and homes. Reliable pins make display work quick, secure and organised without damaging documents.
What Are Pins?
Pins are small, sharp-pointed fasteners used to temporarily secure paper, notes, posters, and fabric to soft surfaces such as corkboards, noticeboards, and bulletin boards. They are ideal for visual displays, reminders, and workspace organisation.
Pins are versatile stationery tools used in offices, classrooms, studios, workshops, and retail displays. Their quick application and easy removal make them a preferred choice when permanent fixing isn’t needed.
Types of Pins
Push Pins
Push pins feature a comfortable plastic or metal head and a pointed steel shaft. They are easy to insert and remove, making them suitable for frequent board updates.
Thumbtacks
Thumbtacks are flat-headed pins that lie close to the board surface. They are used to secure documents neatly without protruding far from the display surface.
Map Pins
Map pins have coloured heads and are often used for marking locations on maps, planning boards, timelines, and project charts.
Why Choose Quality Pins
Selecting quality pins ensures sharp, smooth penetration into board surfaces with minimal bending or breakage. Durable pins maintain their shape over repeated use and help avoid damage to materials being pinned.
A variety of coloured heads improves visual organisation and enhances task clarity across displays and noticeboards.
General FAQ
Pins are used for affixing documents, notices, photos and charts to corkboards, display boards and soft wall surfaces in offices, classrooms and public areas.
Pins can leave small holes because they penetrate the paper. If you want to avoid holes, consider clips or fasteners instead.
